A hot new collab is coming to chilly Aspen this winter as Ponyboy, one of Brooklyn’s top nightlife venues, is joining forces with  W Aspen for a five-month winter residency. The idea is that the Greenpoint watering hole’s signature cocktails and vibes will create a new perspective within the beloved ski town, and in the process, create a local hangout.

The mastermind behind the never-ending party is Ponyboy’s co-owner James Dorje, who will travel to Aspen for the residency, bringing along a cast of Ponyboy’s best and brightest bartenders and vibe curators for Aspen’s first-ever Brooklyn takeover. Dorje will also tap a rotating list of the world’s best DJs who will play in the space, making it the perfect aprés-ski destination. Fellow Ponyboy co-owner and Beverage Director Christopher Reyes has created a unique cocktail menu for the winter outpost, which kicks off on December 15 and will continue through the entire 2022-2023 ski season.
