What we’re about
The Upper Bucks County/Lehigh Valley area has become a hotbed of activity in the beer and wine world in recent years and this group will explore this booming part of our local economy and culture.
There are more than 20 microbreweries in this region and more than 30 wineries. Brewpubs, craft beer bars and wine bars are also fair game for this group. We'll learn about the beer and wine-making process and of course get to sample the fruits of our local entrepreneurs' labors.
Expect monthly meetups, tours, tastings and just hanging out, making new friends and enjoying good times, and maybe some scenic views in the process. Whether you're into beer, wine or both, or just interested in exploring and getting to know the area better, this group is for you.
No dues, fees or cover charges, this is a fun thing for me, not a side hustle.
See you on the trail!
Upcoming events (1)
See all- Walk and Brews Part 2: Ironton Rail Trail Loop and Hawk Mountain BreweryHawk Mountain Brewery , Whitehall , PA
In keeping with the theme this month, we're going to schedule another trail walk and brewery event, this time heading to Whitehall to walk the 5-mile Ironton Rail Trail loop, then reward ourselves with beer and lunch at the Hawk Mountain Brewery.
Hawk Mountain opened its tap room in Whitehall just about a year ago, though it had been brewing beer at its production facility in New Tripoli for nearly five years before that. Current beers on tap include various IPAs, a honey saison, a hefeweizen, a white wine/beer hybrid known as AlpenGlow, coffee stout, Czech-style pilsner, hard seltzer, and regular and light lagers. They also have a cocktail menu, plus wines from Weathered Vineyards and the Easton Wine Project. The onsite kitchen makes hot and cold sandwiches, hot dogs, wings, fries, pierogies, nachos and more.
Join us for the walk if you're feeling really ambitious in the morning. The walk will start from the Chestnut Street Trailhead, 3853 Chestnut St., in Whitehall. Plenty of parking there. After completing the loop, we'll drive to Hawk Mountain Brewery.
Otherwise, just meet at the tap room by 1ish for drinks and food. Should be fun either way. See you there!
