The Brews Cruise is a 7.5 mile bike ride along the Spokane River, starting at Northern Lights Brewery through downtown, into Browne’s Addition and more. This leisurely ride will visit three important areas of interest, like tree planting sites, examples of their restoration work and even a beaver habitat.

From the Lands Council, including the stops:


1. Gonzaga University campus along the Spokane River for a wonderful example of a tree-planting site completed by local students!

2. Near the historic Flour Mill lives a furry, big-tailed friend - a beaver! Allow us to give an update on 2011's relocation season.

3. The Elk Public House. Beer Garden!! Drink specials!!

4. Overbluff Park, where we will highlight our restoration and water clean-up efforts.

5. The Saranac Public House. Brand new bar! Drink specials! Also feel free to cross the street to visit one of our sponsors, Main Market to check out their newly-finished patio.

6. Back to Northern Lights for some refreshments (all day Happy Hour!!), GREAT music by The Camaros, Working Spliffs and Angela Marie Project, and more FUN!
