This is a self-guided experience, not a hosted brewery tour. You decide which venues to visit and manage your evening using the supplied timetable.
It suits travellers who want a social night out but prefer the convenience of organised transport between venues.
You do not have to drink beer. Several stops also serve wine, food and non-beer options, so mixed-interest groups can still enjoy the evening together.
The minimum age is 18 years, and valid photo identification should be carried.
Groups of 8 or more need to contact us before booking.
