Description
This former brewing complex, which once housed the production of some of Malta's most beloved brands, has been transformed into a vibrant and dynamic hub, offering a wide range of functional and recreational spaces. Visitors are invited to explore the newly revitalised 1950 Farsons Brewery in Birkirkara, where they can embark on a self-guided tour to gain a deeper understanding of the history and brewing process of Malta's premier brewery. This unique experience goes beyond the brand itself, revealing the captivating story of three entrepreneurial families who collaborated to become the islands' leading brewers. Through this tour, visitors will uncover the fascinating tale of how these families came together to create a legacy that has endured for generations. As part of the experience, guests will have the opportunity to sample a range of freshly brewed beers at The Cisk Tap, located on the rooftop of the brewery, offering stunning views of the surrounding area.
