Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Pass By: Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NY

Toast your way through the past and present of beer brewing in Brooklyn! This neighborhood was once home to 48 breweries, but this ancient trade disappeared from the borough in the 1970s, only to be reborn in recent years with craft breweries leading the way. If you want a taste (quite literally…) of the history behind beer brewing in New York, look no further!

Stop At: Urban Oyster Tours, 154 Grand St, New York City, NY 10013-3141

On this NYC beer tour, we take a behind-the-scenes local look at how beer is made at one of Brooklyn’s present-day breweries. Explore the pre-prohibition era as we check out 19th-century brewery buildings, visit landmark sites, and share stories of the German immigrants who lived and worked in the neighborhood.

Duration: 3 hours

Pass By: New York City Urban Adventures, 154 Grand St, New York City, NY 10013-3141

Plus, don’t forget all the craft beer and food along the way! We enjoy a number of great Brooklyn brews from all kinds of spots, and stop off at a local pizza joint. Join us as we raise a glass to the history and masters of beer in Brooklyn!

Our guide Verbena was great from our first stop to our last she gave us the history of each place as well as the area these places were located in. All the places we visited except for the brewery were places where the locals go so the average tourist would probably not go there.Highly recommend this tour and if you are lucky you will get our guide.

Great tour and great beer. Our guide Josh was fantastic. Witty, informative, passionate and obviously loves his job. Met some lovely people during our few hours tasting beer and touring Brooklyn and had lots of fun. Thank you to all involved. Keep up the good work!
