Win an Award-Winning Electric Bike With Volt & Mad Squirrel Brewery

VOLT e-bikes and Mad Squirrel Brewery have formed a partnership to create a new beer fit for our nation’s intrepid cyclists.

Appropriately named Post Ride with a low abv of 3.7%, the single hop beer with tropical notes is perfect for post-ride tipple or even as a refreshing midway break on a sizzling summer’s day! If you’re already craving it, head to the Mad Squirrel online shop to order your Post Ride!

The Giveaway!

To celebrate this successful collaboration we’ve launched a nationwide competition where you could win a custom-built VOLT London Ebike. In addition, we’re also giving away cases of Post-Ride beer and exclusive VOLT x Mad Squirrel merch.

A Partnership Centred Around Sustainability

This partnership exemplifies our unwavering dedication to extending beyond the cycling industry and joining with innovative UK brands that prioritise sustainability within their respective sectors.

Mad Squirrel, a trailblazer in the beer industry, not only embraces eco-conscious practices through rainwater collection facilities and solar panels but also actively invests in cutting-edge technologies aimed at waste reduction and enhanced recycling throughout the brewing process.

One of their notable initiatives, the ‘Slurry Silo,’ plays a vital role in curbing waste. It efficiently stores old hops that would otherwise be discarded, and when the silo reaches capacity, its contents undergo transport to an anaerobic digestion plant. Here, through a sophisticated process, these discarded hops are transformed into valuable biofuel, ensuring a circular and environmentally responsible approach to their brewing operations. Pretty cool!

VOLT Founder James Metcalfe commented,

“ At VOLT, we’re always looking to partner with brands that align with our values and culture. The team have always enjoyed Mad Squirrel’s beers, so we were eager to take the opportunity to collaborate with them to provide riders with the perfect post-ride beer, just in time for the summer season. ”

Greg Blesson, Managing Director at Mad Squirrel said,

“ We’re excited to be partnering with VOLT, who are driving innovation and adoption in the active transport industry. Our post-ride beer is perfect for cyclists and drinkers who want a low abv beer that doesn’t compromise on taste. We can’t wait to hear the public’s reaction to our latest collaboration beer. ”
