NEW Denver and Colorado Beer Tours



Coming in 2008 (when the snow clears!) is a brand new Bier-Mania! tour outside Europe. Yep. we're off Stateside to the Wild Wild West!

After we participated at this year's annual American Homebrewers' Conference (AHA) in Denver, Colorado, and saw what a great beer place Colorado was a new tour was born, the »Colorado Mountains Wild West Special«. Strange but true!

We will be combining beer, breweries, micro-breweries, the scenery of the Rockies as well as the history of the Wild West to bring you an epic adventure. Same format as our European tours, small group size (8 maximum), travel by minibus and use those rustic hotels such as Hotel Fairplay in Fairplay.

Watch this space for details in the new year.

NEW Verdun and Lorraine, France Beer Tours


This brand new tour the »Biere de Garde Special« takes in the Lorraine region of northern France in the Meuse River region (River Maas). Heard of Verdun from WW1, prabably rings a bell with you somewhere? Anyway, that's where we are going to base these 2 to 3 day tours.

Verdun has a great nightlife as well as the micro-brewery and bier-cafe L'Estaminet as well of course some interesting history to get your teeth into.

The area is phenominal, combine some true Artisanale breweries (there aren't too many left in Belgium!), such as Rarecourt and Arnaud with WW1 history, add a brewery museum, a castle and even a Chateau brewery then you have the recipe for a good tour and of course a good time!

These tours can be combined with the »Ardennes Special«TM, the »Great Belgium Beer Tour«TM and even the »Great European Beer Tour«TM.

For more interest and to guarantee a place on our tours please email, andy@bier-mania.com or phone us up, be good to hear from you.
