One of the best! It was so much more than just getting to drink beer!! It was a true deep dive into the birth and development of beer! Extremely professional and clearly exceeded our expectations!! Makayla did the play by play and Frank handled the color commentary. So friggin much fun! You will not come close to disappointment in any manner. A+++

A Great Experience!

Ella_S, Mar 2025

10/10. Nick, our tour guide, was extremely knowledgeable and personable. He truly made the tour. We got to see behind the scenes of two breweries, and ended the evening at one of our personal favorite spots.

Fun tasty excursion!

Tami_N, Oct 2024

We visited three different breweries. We really liked each…..they were each quite different in their brewing styles and we appreciated that. We really enjoyed the other couple that was on the tour, so that made it a lot of fun. Our guide was rather lackluster, but I think it’s maybe cause he was recovering from being ill.

History of Beer
