Craft Beer Tasting – Tour Details

Book Now Explore Barcelona’s blossoming craft beer scene in the company of a local expert, on this tasting tour which will take you to some of the hard-to-find local brewery and beer bars that are springing up around the city.

We’ll start the evening at an independent microbrewery in the Eixample district, where we’ll take a guided tour of their beer production facilities and meet some of the staff and owners – plus of course sample two or three of their delicious artesan ales in their attractive bar.

Meanwhile your expert guide, a Catalan brewer from the town of Caldes de Montbui, will guide you through the flavours of what you’re tasting as well as give you an indepth insight into the history of beer production – not just in Catalonia, but dating back to the middle ages through the industrial revolution to present day (he has a few amusing anecdotes from those more “experimental” times as well! Just ask him about opium use in London porter beers for example!).

After you’ve emptied a couple of glasses at the brewery, we’ll head next door to one of Barcelona’s finest beer bars where your guide will help you choose from one of thirty beers on tap, and you can get to know your fellow beer-lovers on the tour in a fun social environment.

Then there’s still one final stop – a petite little beer bar that most locals don’t even know about – where we’ll finish the tour with a final glass or two of man’s greatest invention, either from Catalonia, Spain or one of their international guest beers.

Your guide is deeply passionate about beer and he’s looking forward to meeting you and showing you the best Catalonia and Barcelona have to offer!
