Description
Think this is just a boozy bar hop? Think again. This Melbourne beer tour is about much more than sipping a cold one—though you'll definitely do that too. You'll explore the city’s craft beer revolution and learn how Melbourne went from old-school pub culture to one of the world’s most exciting brewing scenes.
We’ll kick things off in the city before jumping on a tram (bring your Myki card!) to explore one of Melbourne’s coolest local neighbourhoods. With a small group (max 12 guests) or on a private tour, you’ll visit three top-notch venues—no tourist traps here.
At each stop, you’ll dive into different beer styles, brewing techniques, and the passionate stories behind the pints. Expect tasting paddles, delicious snacks, and great chat. You’ll leave with a happy buzz, a brain full of beer facts, and a new appreciation for Melbourne’s legendary brew game. Who knew beer could be so educational?
