Full description
The Bristol Craft Beer Experience starts the day by meeting outside Grain Barge and heading down to the ferry for our private 30 minute tour along the harbour. On board we’ll enjoy a talk and tasting of 2 local beer styles to start the day nothing too heavy to start. We’ll sail past the old Bristol brewery site, and you’ll hear a little bit about the history of brewing in the city from past to present.
We’ll then head to Moor Brewery where you’ll get a look behind the scenes at the brewing equipment along with a talk from the team on how beer is made at this legendary award winning brewery. After the tour we’ll head inside the taproom to allow time to sample a selection of beers brewed on site.
It’s then a walk down to King Street though Castle Park where we’ll stop to see the site of the old Bristol Brewery around 20 min walk. We’ll then reach The Beer Emporium for the final tastings of the day and cheese and meat platters to share these are nibbles rather than a meal however you can get a discount on their excellent pizzas.
