Brooklyn Beer History & Tasting Tour

Start your walking tour around midday in Brooklyn's Williamsburg area, where you'll meet your guide. Your first stop takes you into a favorite local brewery for a tour of the facilities and a tasting of some of its new or popular beers.

From there, walk over to see a group of 19th-century buildings that once housed Brooklyn's best brewing operations. Learn some history from your guide about the German immigrants who once lived, and brewed, in this section of Brooklyn. Then stop by the Most Holy Trinity–St. Mary, a picturesque church that was built in the mid-18th century.

Take a break from your walking for a full lunch (included) at a local pizzeria that is known for its fresh ingredients. End your Brooklyn beer walking tour at a local watering hole, where you'll have a chance to sample a few more local brews.

Learn about Brooklyn’s beer-brewing past and present on a guided walking tour of a local brewery and the history-rich neighborhood in which it’s located. Brooklyn was a beer-brewing capital for much of the 1900s, but all of the 40+ breweries that existed in the borough pre-1970 have disappeared. Find out why, and what is causing them to return, as your local guide leads you on a brewery tour and a walk through the neighborhood of Williamsburg.
