Great service - Unfortunately the ferry to Tallinn was canceled so me and my friends didn’t get to experience the craft beer tour and since the ferry was canceled after the 24-hour cancelation time I couldn’t cancel the tour and get the money back. But I reached out to Dmitry and he help me get a full refund because of the inconvenience with the ferry. 5+ service without a doubt!

Excellent experience - We highly recommend this beer tasting experience, and this company in general. The location was beautiful, the beer was very good, and Dmitry was an excellent guide, telling us about the history of craft beer in general, how it has grown in Estonia and so much more. We were also served some cheese that was very good as well. Overall an amazing experience!

He brought six different beers to taste along with a vast amount of knowledge of Tallinn and their beer industry. He graciously indulged us in our million questions we had about the history of his country, politics, culture and his thoughts on Estonia as a whole. He was wonderful and we couldn't recommend him more highly. Take this tour if you are a beer lover!</p>

Not a beer drinker but a great experience - Not a beer drinker but this tasting was a great experience. Vert knowlegable employees. The location was beautiful but a lot of steps for elderly folks. I was told the beer was very good by my wife and friends and Dmitry was an informative guide, telling us about the history of craft beer and how it has grown in Estonia. We were also given some meats & cheese that.
