 A Beer and Pretzel Tour of Lancaster County

LEARN ABOUT BEER- PAST, PRESENT AND THE FUTURE – LANCASTER COUNTY STYLE

Lancaster, PA: Did you know that Lancaster was once known as the Little Munich of America? Or that 75% of America’s pretzels are made within 100 miles of Lancaster County?

Learn more on an adventure through Lancaster County’s back roads and explore two local pretzel factories and two micro-breweries. Learn about the early days of brewing with true tales of gangsters, bootlegging and how the locals successfully defied Prohibition.

The Artist's Inn and The Harvest Moon Bed and Breakfast have orchestrated an entertaining weekend on June 20 and 21 and then again on August 15 and 16. Hear about colorful reminiscences of beer-making, and sample some of Lancaster ’s pretzels – both soft and hard with local pretzel makers. Of course, the tour would not be complete without a stop at Sturgis Pretzel Factory, site of America ’s first introduction to pretzels. The journey continues to Union Barrel Works to tour their facility and experience their top-rated beer.

Stoudt’s Brewery in Adamstown is the final stop, where host Ed Stoudt will acquaint guests with his award-winning brews and provide a tour of his brewery. An outstanding dinner at Stoudt’s Black Angus restaurant will finish the day, complete with, you guessed it, beer (or wine). There’s no need for a designated driver because guests will be transported by a professional service.

$250.00 per couple covers the cost of all tours, lectures, tastings, a light lunch, dinner, and transportation. Lodging is additional to the cost of the package; guests who decide to lodge will receive a special gift. This event is open to anyone over age 21.
