Beer & Fitness?

Beer AND fitness? Those don't seem like things that should go together, but now they do! All over the country breweries are embracing the idea that people who like to drink craft beer also like to stay in shape. I don't even like to think about the amount of calories I consume in one brewery trip...The good news is that now I can still visit the brewery, but have a workout first. 

Many breweries across the nation have introduced yoga and beer. They open their breweries up to the yogis for a unique class environment that you can’t experience anywhere else. I can’t imagine being more centered than when I’m doing yoga just feet from where beer is being brewed. I just recently took my first yoga class and hope that breweries in the area begin offering these events soon.

Another popular offering from breweries are events like Beer and Bike which is hosted by Ironwood Brewing in Valparaiso on the 1st and 3rd Thursdays of the month at 6 pm during the summer. Crown Brewing in Crown Point takes it a step further with their Pint Night Ride and Run which is every Monday also at 6 pm. After your 10-15 mile bike ride, or 3 mile fun run, you can stick around and enjoy a pint with a little less worry about your waistline!

Whether it’s yoga, biking, or running…Get your fit AND drink on!

Cheer & Sunshine!
