It was fun and informative. Great if you enjoy history at all! The trip into the lager tunnels was really fun, and it guide, Mike, had lots of suggestions for things top do in the area.

Fantastic! Thanks for taking a tour with us and I'll be sure to let Mike know you had a great time!
Love the underground cellar/ tunnel and all the history along with that. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable.
I’ve done many city tours and this was top of the list! Learned so much I never would have realized about the city. Tour guide was awesome and gave lots of helpful hints for off tour things to see.
This was more of a historical walking tour that showed where old brewery buildings stood. Some are still standing but in dilapidated states. You don’t get to sample any beer and go inside only one of the old tunnels. The tour guides are very informative and you learn a lot but it’s important you pick this tour more for the history than the beer.
Very knowledgeable and informative of beer history. Did not know the amount of beer produced in the city.
Aaron and Marco were excellent tour guides! The history of the neighborhood and the breweries was super interesting and the underground portion was really cool!
