Tours typically last 4-4 1/2 hours (be sure to arrive approximately 5-10 minutes before scheduled start time to assure an on-time departure).

Wear what is comfy; we are visiting working breweries. Some are hot and some are cold. Some may require us to wear closed-toe shoes (we’ll tell you in the booking notes); if they do we just bring our shoes (we like our flip flops) and leave them on the bus until they are needed, you’re welcome to do that as well.

According to smartertravel.com on a short bus tour (several hours or less), tip your guide 10 – 20 percent of the cost of the tour. Give it to him or her when you say goodbye, but any amount is greatly appreciated by your tour guide.

Yes. Each brewery offers a selection of t-shirts, pint glasses, etc. for purchase. Any unopened alcoholic beverages (growlers, crowlers, etc.) must be checked in with your driver to secure in our cooler until the end of your tour. You may also purchase an array of Brews Cruise merchandise during the tour.

You may not bring open alcoholic beverages on the tour with you. However, food may be brought on board, as long as you clean up your mess after eating. Any un-opened alcoholic beverages (growlers, crowlers, etc.) must be checked in with your driver to secure in our cooler until the end of your tour.

Our tours are 21 and over only; we do ID checks at our man overboard muster prior to departing on tour and although many of the breweries are dog-friendly, we do not allow pets on the tour. (Contact us about service dog info.)

Unfortunately, we can not accept passengers in wheelchairs at this time. We are working to correct this in the near future.

Our tours are intended to be safe, fun, and educational. We are guests in working breweries that want us to have a good time but also be respectful to their employees and other guests. If a guest arrives intoxicated prior to cruise departure, it is the cruise guide’s discretion to allow them on the cruise or not. If you are turned away due to intoxication you will be charged for the full amount of the tour. Also if you become intoxicated during the tour it is the guide’s discretion to allow you back on the bus or allowed to go into the next location. And, as always, plan ahead. We strongly recommend using a ride service, taxi or designated driver!
