One thing we can look forward to after this quarantine is over is traveling and if you are a beer traveler like me then there are some ale trails you should definietly put on your bucketlist.
Grand Rapids ‘Beer City’ Ale Trail
Grand Rapids, Michigan is very well known as Beer City and rightfully so. On this ale trail you have a whopping 45 breweries to visit. Some notable breweries on this ale trail are Founders, The Mitten, and Thornapple. Need a little bit more persuasion? Here are some things that have been said about Grand Rapids and its’ beer scene: “#1 Beercation Beer Lovers should book for the next giveaway” by Travel & Leisure Magazine, “1 of 15 Best Beer Cities Around the World” by CNN, “America’s Best Beer Scene” by USA Today, and last but not least “1 of 6 Must Visit US Cities for Beer Connoissuers” by the Travel Channel. If you need a map to get you around Beer City I made one for you that you can toggle with below.
Denver Beer Trail
Of course Denver is part of this list with 34 different breweries in the Denver metro as well as beyond Denver. Denver is home to some famous names like Tivoli Brewing, Great Divide, Denver Beer Company, Epic Brewing, and Oskar Blues, as well as Avery Brewing in nearby Boulder, Colorado. Denver is also home to the Great American Beer Fest which is something else we can look forward to in the fall if we all do our part in flattening the curve.
