Seasonal Brew Tours to Take

Scoping out a new brewery for a tour is one thing, but pairing a fall brew with seasonal foliage and sightseeing is another trip completely. Rent a car and hit the road on a brew-tour road trip or hit the local brewery near you for a scenic-meets-seasonal brew tour.

Vermont

Take in the fall foliage and vibrant changing leaves of Vermont on a brew tour. Hit up Harpoon, Hill Farmstead Brewery, Vermont Pub and Brewery and von Trapp Brewing for award-winning craft beers and equally beautiful scenery. Grab a pint and bundle up to sit outside or prop up by the window and enjoy a seasonal brew with a view. ’Tis the season for changing leaves, vibrant fall colors and a crisp cold beer.

Michigan

From Marquette to Ann Arbor, Michigan is a state riddled with urban and rural breweries. With a fun mix of city scenery, crisp fall air and changing leaves along the water, Michigan’s varied pubs and brew companies, including Blackrocks Brewery, Upper Hand Brewery, Paddle Hard Brewing, Shoreline Brewery, Stony Lake Brewing Company and Chelsea Alehouse Brewery, all offer fun rustic settings, unique décor and indoor and outdoor seating boasting incredible seasonal views.

North Carolina

Between Asheville and Raleigh, North Carolina boasts mild temperatures, vibrant fall foliage and a diverse lineup of breweries to tour. Along the water, Weeping Radish Farm Brewery is the oldest microbrewery in the state, offering German-influenced, farm-to-table fare and great views. Check out Duck-Rabbit Craft Brewery, Mother Earth Brewing beer garden, Skull Camp Brewing and Nantahala Brewing Taproom for live music along the way.
