We have one here in southwest Ohio called "Miami Trail" Ale. Has a bike on the lable and honors the Little Miami Scenic Trail (an 80 mile rail-trail), which runs very close by the microbrewery that produces it. Pretty good brew, too. One of my favorites is "Tire Biter Ale", from the Flying Dog Brewery in Colorado. The label is worth the price of the beer. I believe there is a connection between appreciation for well-made, hand-crafted beautiful to the eye bicycles, and for well-made, hand-crafted in small batches, delicious to the taste beer and ale.
