Beer hopping in Zurich - This was a fun way to see the beer side of Zurich. Our guide, Conard, is a college student and a member of their brewery on campus so he sure knew the mechanics of making beer. We went to three different bars, (one a brewery), to do tastings. All the brews were tasty and unique. We tasted ales, pilsners, sours, stouts, lagers and others I can’t remember, from all over the world. One was even from a city in California near our home! Conard did a good job touring us thru his town plus gave us history of the city. We enjoyed the 3+ hours we spent with him.. and the beers too!

Best Beer Tour! - Sandro was AMAZINGGG! I was late to make an appointment online so I emailed them to see if they had a spot open that day & they did. Super well with communication & spoke very well in English. We’re from USA & my husband wanted to try a beer tour - I was definitely not a fan of that idea because I hate IPA’s. However, this was my favorite ever. We started out slow & all of them were definitely good. My favorite was definitely coffee infused beer!! 100/10 - would recommend this to anyone who wants to try different beers. Sandro is your guy!

100% recommended! - Amazing experience with a welcoming team! We thoroughly enjoyed our beer tour, it exceeded our expectations. Not only were the beers tailored to our likes and preferences but the locations were excellent, showing us different parts of the city. Our guide(s) were knowledgeable and fun, and made the entire experience top notch! We learned about Zurich's history, beer history, and so much more. I highly recommend if you are looking for a fun night with locals for a true feel of the city.

Francesco was fantastic! - The tour was amazing!! Our guide, Francesco, was the reason we had so much fun. He had so much knowledge of the beer brewing process and the city of Zurich. He also had a ton of great stories about his travel around his home in Italy and our home in America. He even gave us a few great restaurant recommendations for after the tour! We couldn’t recommend this tour enough, especially Francesco!

Beers to you! - Sandro treated us like we have known him for some time. Great to see the city from a different perspective with information we would never get out of a book. Nice variety of beers. Would have liked to have another stop on the tour.

The tour guide who’s more bubbly than the beers! Great time overall - Francesco’s my new brew-master!
Right from the beginning, the tour guide, Francesco was nothing short of fantastic.
His smile and deep knowledge on beers is the first thing that will capture your attention.
More than anything it was his willingness to experiment with the group to suit to everyone’s taste buds.
Needless to say, Francesco loves what he does

Best beer tour I’ve ever been on! Great Guide! - Had a wonderful time on the Zurich Beer Tour. We had Francesco as our tour guide, and he was absolutely phenomenal! We were originally booked on the Chocolate & Beer tour, but fell ill the day of the tour. So we messaged the operators, and they went above and beyond to accommodate us. They booked us two days later for the Beer tour, and brought us all of the chocolates from the chocolate and beer tour that we missed. Truly wonderful people, with amazing customer services and a mind blowing amount of beer knowledge! Francesco even sent us an email the following day with personal recommendations for things to do/places to eat in Milan and Venice (our next stops for our trip). Cannot say enough about how great the people running this tour really are.
TLDR: Fantastic tour with great beer, amazing guides, excellent customer service and it's simply a must do!

Very interesting and tasty beer tour. - Great beer tour which I fully recommend for anyone loving to try good beers. The tour is very well organised. You can also get some infos and history about beer. We visited 3 different places where we tried different types of beer, all of them very tasty and in a very cool places too. In each place we tried 3 different beers, so we had around 9 beers all in all plus another one on the way from one place to another. Definitely recommend it.

A beery good evening - We like doing beer tours for first time visits to cities so we hooked in to this one via their website. This turned out to be an excellent evening. Provided with detailed instructions for the meeting point and we easily found Sandro and the rest of our group (my BrewDog shirt may have helped!). Sandro talked us through the history of beer in Switzerland (who knew there was a beer cartel!) through to the current day craft scene.
Visited 3 locations with a variety of beer samples. The Nordic one was quite unique and we will get back there today. I know my craft beer and can confirm the ones we sampled were very good. The end of the tour was further away from our hotel so we staggered our return via the second spot (Bier Works).
We were lucky in having an engaged group who were friendly and keen to know more. And of course we had an excellent guide. Thanks for a top evening. Recommended!
