Near the brewery "Zur Malzmühle", tram lines 1, 7, 9, bus line 133
Description
The brewhouses can be quite challenging for tourists, we will tell you what makes them so special and why the rudeness of our waiters is usually a misinterpretation. You will see how funny, open-minded and tolerant our city is - and the best: we will have a lot of Kölsch beer together!

Operator response
Hi there,
I am really sorry as I told you, the guide that should have been there didn't show up. He is not working for us anymore. And as promised I immediately refunded you and your group plus I gave you tipps on what to do.
Still I am very sorry!
If you are ever back in Cologne I would like to give you a tour for free for your inconvenience!
Best regards,
Chris
