What Can I Expect
This is your invite to join the Ale Hunter London Craft Beer Tour visiting craft breweries and tap rooms along London’s famous Bermondsey Beer Mile route for an afternoon or evening of beer talk and tasting.
Hosted by beer expert Paul (who is a fully accredited Beer Sommelier and Certified Cicerone ®) you’re in for a real treat on these three and a half hour guided tours and tastings that’ll bring the London craft beer scene to light.
You and your fellow London beer curios will meet at the Southwark Brewing Company in the arches near London Bridge Road. Famed for its delicious casked ales, you’ll discover what makes these craft beers so special.
Your tour continues further along the arches, with a visit to Anspach & Hobday, home of the flagship, session-strength Nitro Porter London Black a very drinkable, creamy and smooth dark ale you’ll absolutely love.
Things go continental in the capital when you head to It Ain’t Much If It Ain’t Dutch, the taproom with the funky wallpaper on the other side of the railway line that specialises in, you guessed it, Dutch beers. As the leading distributor of Dutch craft drinks in the UK, you’ll learn all about distinctively crisp lagers from the Netherlands.
Your London beer tour finishes at Mash Paddle, a fabulous tap room in the arches heralding not only their own tasty IPAs, but cocktails and more in a great atmosphere. Stay here and continue your evening out, or get some recommendations from Paul on where to go next for more beer or food on the Bermondsey Beer Mile or beyond!
Book your London Craft Beer Tour and explore the flavours, the stories and the love behind the finest craft breweries and beers the capital has to offer.
