Join us for the ultimate beer lovers Girls Pint Out vacation May 19-25, 2022!
Join Nikki from Girls Pint Out and Beercycling on a custom trip combining some of our favorite destinations from several of the classic Beercycling food and beer tours and focuses on the Belgium beer culture, and the women who power it.
On this tour we’ll visit at least 8 breweries including the famous Trappists Westvleteren, home to the best beer in the world, as well as St Bernardus, where we’ll drink some beers on their rooftop patio.
A tour with women in beer in mind, combined with plenty of Belgian chocolate, cheese, and beer pairings!
All skill levels welcome, this ride is mostly flat and consists of biking itineraries of 15-40 miles a day with plenty of stops every few miles along the way for snacks, scenery, and beer.
Not a big cycling fan? Well, we’ve got you covered with an amazing e-bike option. With an e-bike you hop on and are able to pedal and let the bike power your ride!
Perfect balance of historic cities, small villages, traditional family-owned breweries, inventive new beer makers, two Trappist Monasteries, and a tour of an organic farm!
One dinner is included in your trip fees! These are special menus that we have pre-reserved and they are guaranteed to be special experiences. In addition, one day you’ll receive a special cheese and beer pairing and chocolate and beer, all part of the tour.
Private tours at many of the breweries we visit. No two breweries or tours are alike! Beer tastings are typically generous and are covered by your trip fees!
6-nights hotel, bike / bag rentals, breakfast, lunch, snacks, brewery tours, and beer samples and two special dinners are all included. Vehicle support included as well.
Make new friends and visit a different brewery every day as you explore Belgium at a speed allowing you to absorb your surroundings.
