Chamber Launches Adirondack Craft Beverage Trail Digital Passport

LAKE GEORGE, NY — Now craft beverage drinkers can gain access to special offers and the chance to win Adirondack Craft Beverage Trail swag through a new digital passport offered by the Lake George Regional Chamber of Commerce & CVB.

Click here for a link to sign up for the Adirondack Craft Beverage Trail Digital Passport.

After people sign up, they will then get a text or email with a link to their passport. The passport is then ready to use immediately. There is no app to download. The pass can be saved to your phone’s home screen for easy one-tap access.

“The craft beverage industry is a year-round attraction that ranked high in consumer traveler surveys distributed by our destination to gain insight into what people are looking for when they visit our area,” said Executive Director Gina Mintzer. “We feel this is an offering that will help visitors find what they’re looking for and gain more visibility for our local craft beverage scene.”

The passport is being marketed to a targeted demographic that mirrors the organic traffic to adkcraftbev.com, which draws many website visitors from out of the area with the top location being New York City.

The digital passport was developed through Bandwango, a company that develops digital passports for destinations around the U.S. and Canada. The digital passport provides a simple way for the Chamber to analyze redemption and usage data, spot trends and track leads that can help measure economic impact of programs like this.

“Why digital? We liked the ease of updating the passport, the fact that we could continue to interact with users of the passport, analyze data and react to trends, and that it is easily accessible from a smartphone,” Mintzer said.

This passport features 16 craft beverage producers in Essex, Warren, Washington and Saratoga Counties. These producers craft local wine, beer, hard seltzer, hard cider, spirits and soft drinks.

Currently there are 3 prize tiers:

5 Check-Ins — ACBT Logo Window Cling
10 Check-Ins — Tote bag designed for bottles
All Locations — Entry into Grand Prize Raffle Prize

There are two prize pickup locations:
