Fantastic Beer Tour
Jul. 2023
What a great thing to do in Ottawa! David was an excellent host and the stops on the tour were fantastic. If was so much fun being with other beer drinkers and by the end of the evening we had become one big group of friends. Oh...and the beer was excellent. My favourite part was when we had a sample direct from the tank...doesn't get any fresher than that!!!

I was alone, for a very short vacation in Ottawa. There were one big group, a little one and a couple... after few amazing tastings and funny (+interesting) descriptions about how brew process works, that Sunday turned into an amazing one. Special thanks to Dan! our tour guide.

Apr. 2023
Had a great time with our guide Dan, and the brewery owners. Knowledgeable and answered questions, but gave us time to talke with our friends, both old and new. Samples were generous, and we were glad to indulge in the tasty snack provided.

We went for my boyfriend’s 30th birthday. It was an amazing experience. We were 14 and everyone loved the experience. Having the possibility to book with the bus added something more to the experience. Would totally recommend it to anyone!☺️

2 breweries and 1 distillery, good mix!
Mar. 2023
We took our staff out for an afternoon tour of Ottawa breweries. The tour bus came to our workplace which was super convenient and reduce people having to drive. Better for drinking more beer!

We went to North of 7 distillery, Bicycle Craft Brewery and Spark Beer. It was nice to have a distillery thrown into the mix as it brakes up sampling beer at 2 places instead of 3. All the hosts at each place were engaging and informative. And as the tour progressed, our shy staff opened up and we were all talking and laughing by the end!

Julia took good care of our group. Handed out some prizes on the bus with a few tour trivia related questions.

The sandwiches provided during the tour were fresh and tasty. And the cornbread was delicious!
