What a lovely afternoon trying new beers and chatting to a variety of people. Our host was brilliant, informative and very accommodating fitting us in last minute and making sure I had 1 or 2 of my favourite style of beers. We will be going back again and doing a Friday next time. Great gift idea too.

Booked this as a present for my Dads 65th Birthday. Being from Manchester we were pretty sure we’d pretty much know everywhere we visited.... little did we know! This tour takes you to places you’d never know were there & to parts of the city I never knew existed! Our guide was Lee who was a great lad, friendly and easy to talk to. He gave a great tour not rushing us round and filling us in on local history. Each venue was clean and well maintained. The speakers in each venue were all very nice and gave us great info on the venues and the different beers we sampled, again not rushing to get us in and out again. We had a great afternoon! My dads not stopped telling everyone what a great time he had! Thank you for a brilliant afternoon! 🙂

So me and the lads came to Manchester for a stag weekend. What can I say, what a weekend it was and it was helped by this great Craft beer tour. We had Lee as our tour guide and it was a pleasure to have him take us around the different venues as part of our group. I think he is now an adopted welshman 😁 while in the different venues the beer experts were great. Full of enthusiasm, knowledgeable and eager to give us all a good time. Even the rain couldn't stop it! Thank you for a great day, it will come highly recommended.

We has a great tour Starting at Beatnikz then Alphabet brewery, I can't remember the last place but it had great beer. The walk between the bars was interesting going along and over canals, as I come from the south of eng I don't see such industrial areas. We had 10 good beers, ipas pales and my favourite Stouts. They talked about expansion into other cities I look forward to trying them in the future. Can't recommend enough for the beer lover, and if I'm back in Manchester I'll do it again.

Had a wonderful time on this tour yesterday with our fantastic tour guide Fred. Drinks were plentiful and some really great beers. One of the group didn’t usually drink beer but loved the rhubarb beer and throwaway beer. My family live in Manchester but had not visited 3 of the 4 breweries. The brewer at the blackjack was incredible and very passionate about his craft. Met some wonderful people who were also on the tour. I would really recommend this tour to anyone visiting Manchester.

We went on a tour on a hottest day of the year so far, so drinking a beer was the best thing to do. The tour is great, we had lot of laughs, seen interesting places, and with our tour guide Fred we learn a new thing or two about Manchester. We have visited three bars and one proper brewery (Runaway brewery, my favourite of venues) and taste some really good beers. I can only recommend this for any beer lover!

I'd been in two minds whether to book on to this tour, being on my own, but needn't have worried. Our guide, and the reps at all of the stops on the way, were friendly and knowledgable and I had a great time chatting with the other beer tourists! The tour would suit beer geeks and casual beer drinkers alike with an interesting mix if different beer styles to try along the way and loads of information about the brewing process and the Manchester craft beer scene. I actually took my other half to one of the bars we visited later in our trip and the barman came over for more beer chat, which was a really nice touch. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone who wants to expand their beer knowledge and try some interesting beers

Enjoyable Saturday afternoon walking around 4 small breweries/ bars. Our guide was friendly albeit came across a little timid. If you don’t know the brewing process you are given a good insight to how beer is made. For me the tasting selection focused too much on light coloured beers then to the other extreme a couple of stouts. I would suggest the organisers pre arrange a balance of beer types/styles. We met some interesting people on the tour which is part of the experience.

This tour was fantastic! We visited 4 different breweries/tap rooms and sampled around a dozen beers. Our guide Lee was great--it was like meeting up with a local friend to see the sights and have some beer. We enjoyed meeting the other people on the tour and learning about the various beers but also something about the history of Manchester and the parts of the city we walked though. The vibe was relaxed, fun, and interesting. It was great to try so many beers I might not have ordered on my own, and to hear about the process of making them. Also very good value, absolutely worth what you spend. Highly recommended!!

I live in Manchester and was a bit unsure about what to expect with the tour but the venues and people we met were all great. The selection of beers was varied and each one was explained in detail as we drank. My highlight was the Blackjack brewery tour which really brought it all to life. I'd highly recommend to anyone visiting Manchester or even if you live here already.

First of all, I want to start by saying I am not a massive beer fan - however the craft beers they had on offer provide something for everyone and are some of the best I have tasted with a number of flavours on offer (some of which the ingredients will surprise you!). Our guide Lee was excellent and even gave us a run down of the history of Manchester as we moved from brewery to brewery. All breweries are within a short walking distance of one another and once you get there you are made to feel welcome and greeted with plenty of delicious craft beers to try. The guys are each venue were very friendly, you could have a good laugh with them and they were happy to tell you everything you needed to know about how they brewed their beers. I will most certainly be returning with more family and friends as this tour is a MUST if you are visiting Manchester!

Went on the tour over the weekend with a few of my family, great afternoon out. Got to try some really good beers (and some that really weren't my thing, but still good to try). Solid variety though, seems that when speaking at the end everyone found several they really enjoyed. Lee was a great guide, entertaining and engaged the entire time. The route be took us on was a good wander through some of the lesser known parts of town, and whilst he was leading he gave us some trivia about the areas we were passing through. Very newbie friendly too, the Seven Brothers run-through of the basics of the brewing process was handy. Plus the "how to taste beer", even if it seemed a tad pretentious at first, helped me get a lot more of the flavours of the drinks we had after that point. All in all, solid afternoon out. Would definitely recommend if you're looking to get a little more out of an afternoon of drinking.

Really great mix of beer and information. I enjoyed the brewery tour and talk especially. I drink a lot of craft beer and originally booked this for the company of the group, as I have holiday to use up and my wife was unable to take time off. I didn't expect to learn much more or even necessary try breweries I hadn't come across before but was very pleasantly surprised on both counts. Definitely something for everyone from novice to expert and all in between. Had a great time with the group and even missed my sober planned train twice having continued drinking with newfound friends. Cracking day😊🍻

Just a brief note to anyone considering the tour to say it’s a fantastic afternoon well spent with like minded people. A brilliant insight into the history of Manchester which was great for me as a Yorkshireman. Opened my eyes to places that I never would’ve found without and for the price and the volume of beer you get it’s brilliant value. Well done guys and thank you!!

Great beer tour, really mixed group in terms of ages and backgrounds. The tour guide was friendly and kept checking in on us and we got to see some great different bars and breweries. A 5 star rating and would do it again but the only it if feedback would be that the sour beers didn’t go down well and so 3/4 of them was probably too many for our group. It would probably be good to reduce that to 1 or 2 for the experience and have another variation. I can’t mark them down for it though as it was a super experience and although the majority of our group didn’t like them, we might have been the exception!

Really great day out! Went to 3 different places that I'd never been to before - despite living in Manchester over 5 years. There was something for everyone on the tour and I enjoyed trying beers that I would never normally choose. On my tour we went to Beatniks, Alphabet Brewery and Pamona Island, at Escape to Freight Island. At Escape to Freight Island, there was even a magician who came around so just topped off the whole day with that little something extra. Tour guide was great as we're all the other people on the tour. Overall a really enjoyable experience and will definitely be booking again for a date in the Summer!
