If you’re looking for a taste of Bristol's thriving craft beer scene, our Beer & Brewery Tours offer an excellent way to explore and sample some fantastic local brews. Across Bristol, there are currently three distinct tours available, ranging significantly in both duration and cost – from £7 to a substantial £104. We’ve found that this type of experience consistently receives high praise, with the average rating across all tours sitting at a very impressive 4.9 out of 5. This reflects the quality of the tours and the enjoyment visitors typically have.

The duration of these tours varies dramatically, spanning from a quick 40-minute introductory session to an immersive 210-minute experience. This flexibility allows you to tailor your visit to suit your time constraints and beer preferences. Generally, we recommend setting aside at least two hours for a truly enjoyable tour, allowing ample time for tasting and conversation.

The format of these tours typically involves visiting several local breweries or pubs, where you’ll have the opportunity to learn about the brewing process and sample a range of beers. You can expect to be in shared groups on some of the shorter tours, while the most premium options, such as the top-rated “Bristol private pub hopping and sightseeing with local guide” at £104 (6 reviews), offer a more intimate and personalized experience.

Considering the price range and consistently high ratings – particularly for the highest-scoring tour – you can anticipate investing between £7 and £104 per person to participate in this activity. These tours are incredibly popular, demonstrating the strong interest in Bristol's craft beer scene and the quality of experiences being offered.
