Bivouakiff - Aventures vélocales

The Mayenne region is bursting with initiatives! Over the last few years, a generation of craft breweries has sprung up all over the place, driven by enthusiasts with varied backgrounds. Their beers, local and often organic, tell a story. It's the story of a return to taste, to the land and to craftsmanship.

At Bivouakiff, we like to cycle to meet people who brew differently. Taking the time to explore the Mayenne countryside, bivouacking under the stars... and stopping to listen to a brewer talk about his beer.

6 Mayenne brewers are waiting to share their passion with you.

2 trails of different lengths so that everyone can take part.

1 guinguette evening to work on your dance moves.
