Brewery Tours and Beer Tasting Experiences
If you’re partial to a perfectly poured pint or know someone whose tipple of choice is always an ice-cold glass of amber nectar, a beer tasting is the perfect experience. Whether you’re on the hunt for a beer-fuelled gift for a hoppy birthday, the ultimate Christmas present for a beer-loving friend or you’ve always wanted to do a brewery tour, you’ve come to the right place. Discover our beer days and find plenty of beer tastings across the UK.
Beer Gifts for Beer Lovers
There’s no better gift for a beer lover than a beer tasting experience, sampling a whole array of beers – straight from the barrel or the draught. From ales and lager to ciders and stouts, there are so many different types of beer available. Learn the flavour profiles of a variety of beers, including the light and malty tastes of lager, the hoppy, medium-bodied flavour of pale ales and the malty sweetness and hoppy bitterness of everyone’s favourite stout! With many of our beer brewery tours and tastings, you’ll learn the brewing process as well as a few cheeky tipples along the way. For a beer enthusiast, we’ve even got an overnight beer tasting break – now that’s a thirst-quenching experience.
Forget a crate for their birthday, beer gifts don’t get much better than heading to a brewery for a beer tasting. For more of our totally delicious drinks experiences, click here and discover wine and whisky tastings, distillery tours and more!

Not at all, these are designed for complete beginners as well as enthusiasts. A guide or brewer usually walks you through the different styles, from light lagers to hoppy pales and rich stouts, so you'll leave knowing more than when you arrived.
