Brews: Over the course of Saturday and Sunday, Bikes & Brews will feature a lineup ice-cold beers from Molson’s and local breweries. We’re also serving up your caffeine fix from Mark IV Brothers Roasters. Their brews are made from the finest specialty coffees sourced globally. Come meet these avid riders who are thrilled to have such an awesome coffee shop in Orillia, and taste their smoothly roasted blends. Additionally, we’re excited to introduce some awesome coffee creations from our very own Shoe Brew!
