THINGS TO DO

Hop on

Your Bike

Love biking and beer? Then you’ll want to

check out the hop-fueled ride in the Stevens

Point Area, pairing breweries and trails.

Most of this beer-lovers route is on the popular Green Circle Trail.

Start on the north side, with a visit to District 1 with beer hall vibes

before continuing to the Point Brewery where they’ve been brewing

since 1857.

• Total distance: 7.3 mi

• Green Circle Trail: While there is a more direct path between

these two beer spots, you won’t regret exploring

the scenic route – including a mural under

the Highway HH bridge.

1 District 1 Brewing Co.

200 Division St N, Stevens Point

Must try: Pedal On or the Wonderful Water Seltzer

2 Stevens Point Brewery

2617 Water St, Stevens Point

Must try: Lake Side Vacation Ale or Drop Dead Blonde

3 Optional Stop: Like wine, too? Don’t miss a stop at

Sunset Point Winery, just a short ride off of the

Green Circle Trail’s Riverfront Trail segment.

Did you know?

Pedal On was made in honor of Curbwise – a one-of-a-kind bicycle

delivery service in the Stevens Point Area. Pedal On is a modern take

on a pale ale, using cool kid hops, fruit forward yeast strain and a

restrained bitterness that make it perfect to sip after a ride.

SAFETY FIRST! Know your

limits and the laws before you

hit the road to keep it fun and

play it safe. Wear a helmet,

drink plenty of water, and avoid

beers with a high ABV. Or better

yet, pack a cooler and grab

some tasty options to enjoy

after the ride.
