We had a great time exploring Scottish and Edinburgh beers! Dylan was a great guide, answering all of our questions and taking into account what we liked when it came to beer and what we already knew about brewing. This is a great tour!

Fran was a great guide. She really knows a lot about beer and has a good time sharing and teaching her tour guests. The pubs we visited had some nice varieties of beer both mainstream as well as special selections. I'd highly recommend this tour in general and her in particular to others considering this excursion.

I booked this tour for my husband and I after having lots of fun on another beer tour in Belgium. We ended up being the only people on the tour that day with our guide, Fran. Fran was knowledgeable about Edinburgh history and beer, introducing us to different styles that we normally wouldn’t drink in the US. Also, although we thought we knew lots about beer, we learned loads! Since it was the three of us, we were able to get to know Fran and had a wonderful time. I would highly recommend the tour! Thanks, Fran!

Wag was amazing and taught us a lot about the history of beer from Scotland. It was a fun day walking around the city exploring bars and meeting new people.

We did the beer tasting and old city walking tour with Wag. He was a wonderful and hugely informative guide as well as lots of fun. We loved sampling so many of the local beers and learning about the brewing process and the local history. It really was a unique experience. This tour was a delight and one we would recommend highly. When we come back to Edinburgh we shall book a food tour and hope to get Wag as our guide again.
