Highly Recommend - Went with my father, we both had a great time. Good beer selection, tried a lot of new stuff. We especially liked the church/brewery! Highly recommended!

Shaun was outstanding! - We have been on winery tours from California to Florida to Niagara on the Lake before, so we thought we would try the cider tour. Our driver/guide Shaun was outstanding. It was just 4 of us and he took us off the beaten path after we had hit the wineries. He was personable, helpful and just made the tour very enjoyable,

Not the greatest - Our driver Jakob was awesome! Very friendly and professional. The first stop at Between The Lines was a lot of fun- our server Paul was friendly and took the time to explain the different wines and history of the vineyard. We were not impressed with our second stop- Limited Distillery- drinks were just placed in front of us and just a simple explanation of what we were drinking. The third stop at Silversmith Brewing felt extremely rushed. Our server barely gave us the time of day. No explanation of beers or the history of the building. He didn’t seem to happy to be serving us. The most information we got out of the whole tour was from Jakob our driver. For the price we paid it didn’t feel quite “tour like”. I wouldn’t book this tour again.
