Club Velo

With the Tour de France pedalling its way through the region every year, we think this is great opportunity to celebrate the wealth of excellent food and drink on offer in and around the Pays Toy area. So as cyclists make their way through the region we are encouraging them to enjoy a beer as their perfect post-ride beverage.

With the Hautes-Pyrénées being home to thousands of keen cyclists of all levels and some of the most popular cycling routes, we’ve outlined three reasons why you should reach for a beer when you get off the saddle:

Hydration

While it may seem mad to suggest drinking a beer rather than water after a long cycle, research shows that a couple of bottles of beer can be just as hydrating as water… and it tastes better!

It’s Sociable

As the pros will know, groups of cyclists will often meet at a bar before and after the ride. Really, it would be rude not to call into said bar for a glass or two to catch up with everyone.

Care For Those Muscles

Flexing and stretching in all the right ways is vital after any sort of exercise, especially after a lengthy bike ride. Beer can help to relax tired muscles, which when combined with the right cool down exercises will leave you feeling relaxed and injury free.

Our brewery sits close to many major cycling routes, so if anyone needs to stop for a refreshment along the way, we always welcome them into the brewery shop and bar to buy a bottle or two to enjoy at the end of their ride – or during!

Bonne route!
