Berlin BRLO BRWHOUSE tour: 1.5 hours in recycled shipping containers, learn brewing history, then taste 5 craft beers with pairings.
“The tour was informative. I've been a few Brewery tours and still learned new things about brewing. The guide was engaging, there were a good number of beers to sample and they were excellent.”
Walk Berlin’s Friedrichshain with a guide, taste 9 local craft beers plus snacks at three stops, and learn East Berlin beer culture.
“Alex was a great tour guide. We got to visit some really cool, local breweries that we probably wouldn’t have found on our own. We sampled 7 beers, and all were really good. In addition to the breweries, Alex was very knowledgeable about the area and shared a lot of history.”
A small-group craft beer tour in Berlin’s Friedrichshain with pizza, 6 to 9 tastings, and a guide who knows Berlin beer culture.
“We very much enjoyed the fellow participants on our tour:) Sadly, we did not have Mr. Cliff the rockstar beer tour guide:( Our guide was new, arrived late for the tour, and ended our tour early. She was very unorganized and did not seem to deliver the material about craft beer very well. She had us wait to taste the beer offerings until she was done speaking and then rushed us to finish the samples once allowed to consume them as we needed to move on to the next stop. Lastly, she placed a collection bin on the table for gratuities making the group feel uncomfortable and awkward. Disappointing:( Thank…”
3-hour Friedrichshain craft beer tour with 9 tastings, a snack, and East Berlin culture, led in English from Ostkreuz.
“Highly recommend this walking tour. Our guide, Chris, was outstanding! He was very friendly and knowledgeable. We sampled 7 or 8 beers (lost count!) in three different, unique locations and had a delicious snack at an outdoor Biergarten. These were not small samples, but generous pours, each different and Chris had a story about how they were made and with what ingredients. We learned a lot about the neighborhoods, the small brewers and the people in our group (we even ended up inviting one of them to join us for dinner!). It was a great way to explore local places that we wouldn’t have otherwise seen and try a variety…”
3-hour craft beer and culture walk in Munich with 7 tastings, snacks, and a microbrewery visit along the Isar for small groups.
“Fantastic experience with a top notch host who understands beer extremely well and has a passion for the Munich craft beer scene. Alberto was a consummate host who guided our small group through off the beaten path beer spots. A great experience for anyone who enjoys beer generally and a must for a beer geek!”
Hike Stuttgart’s vineyards with a puzzle card, then taste five Kraftpaule craft beers and earn a 15% voucher on your next visit.
“The walking route was well chosen and the puzzles were fun and entertaining. I would have liked information about the beers and perhaps also an order in which they should be drunk.”
Eat street food and sip craft beer in Heidelberg on a private, customizable 3-hour tasting tour with guided stops for sausages, sweets, and more.
“Johannes was very engaging and funny as well as knowledgeable. We really enjoyed meeting and getting to know him. We met some fun people at the Craft Beer spot as well as the spirit store. Tasted spirits that we loved and ended up buying several different flavors. But the best part was ending up at the Roten Ochsen which will be shortening hours and possibly closing after 180 years. We were hoping to eat there.”
Every kind of German day out, and the best of each.
