Public brewhouse tour in English

We had a great time. We were traveling with someone that was in a scooter, and we were able to get to all four of the pubs.

We had a super enjoyable time on our beer tour. My husband’s favorite German style beer is Kolsch so we made a special stop in Cologne on our Europe trip. We visited 4 brewhouses and learned a lot about the history of Cologne while enjoying great conversation with our tour guide!

You need to take cash! The smaller, the better. The tour ended 30 minutes early. Our tour guide needed to rush off for another tour. We stayed and chatted. It was extremely enjoyable.

Alisja was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed all 4 Brewhaus we went to. Buying your own 2.50 euro beers was perfect since I drink more than my wife. Highly recommend this one!

What a fantastic 2 hours this trip was. Exploring the 4 brewhouses and tasting there excellent beers. Our guide Alisja was a delight to be with and very knowledgeable and funny also. Highly recommend this trip you won’t be disappointed. Thanks Mick & John.

We are 2 English speakers who live in Germany about 2 hours from Cologne. We wanted to give our Australian friends a special German experience and thought a Kölsch Tour in Cologne would be ideal. With all due respect to our guide who was friendly and polite, she could tell us very little or nothing about Kölsch beer, the history of it or the brewing techniques. She recited a short pre-learnt description of Kölsch drinking etiquette but if we asked questions about other cultural aspects of Cologne she didn't have much to say. For example Carneval in Cologne, which is a deeply loved cultural event, she only said she didn't like it. Other questions like the different Kölsch brewing techniques or the history of the Kölsch pubs we visited she couldn't tell us anything. At times there were awkward moments of silence, then we in desperation quickly redirected the conversation on to other unrelated topics to make the atmosphere more relaxed. We felt the tour lacked a knowledgeable guide who had a love and passion of Cologne and its beer drinking culture. We were very disappointed. It wasn't the guide' s fault, she was poorly trained or perhaps was just unsuited for the job.

Enjoyed trying out various beers at the local breweries and listening to the stories about the local culture 😊

The taverns didn't even know we were coming. At the last tavern, we gave money to our guide to pay for the the beers, which we had done all night. We gave her a little extra for a tip. She took off with everything, leaving us to pay for the beers

Unpretentious fun tour. While tour leader did not share a great deal of beer knowledge, she made up for it in casual lighthearted conversation.

We had a wonderful experience on the beer tour with Alisja! We learned the beer etiquette here in Koln and enjoyed the varieties. All the best to Alisja - it was a simple pleasure to get to know her during the course of the tour and we will always remember her anytime we enjoy a cold Kolsche.
