Clif was the perfect Guide — not only in terms of beer but also German history. Very interesting & nice tour! Enjoyed it a lot! Even as a local:)

Fantastic time

Megan_J, Oct 2023

All the bars were very well chosen, and the beer choices were exceptional. Cliff was extremely knowledgeable on the subject of beer and Berlin culture, and had answers for any questions that came up. Highly recommend

Tour Debacle

Mike_W, Sep 2023

We very much enjoyed the fellow participants on our tour:) Sadly, we did not have Mr. Cliff the rockstar beer tour guide:( Our guide was new, arrived late for the tour, and ended our tour early. She was very unorganized and did not seem to deliver the material about craft beer very well. She had us wait to taste the beer offerings until she was done speaking and then rushed us to finish the samples once allowed to consume them as we needed to move on to the next stop. Lastly, she placed a collection bin on the table for gratuities making the group feel uncomfortable and awkward. Disappointing:( Thank goodness for fun tour mates:)

Best beer tour in berlin

Suzanne_W, Mar 2023

I honestly didn’t know beer can be so diverse and my tour guide did a good job of explaining it as if it was a story.

Just book it already!

Chloe_R, Mar 2023

If you only have time for one tour while you are in Berlin, let it be this one! My friend and I (who are not avid beer drinkers) booked this tour on a whim and we were so glad we did! Cliff was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of beer brewing and the development of the craft beer industry in Berlin. He also helped us to understand why Berlin is such a unique and special city--and how beer played a special role in making Berlin what it is today. Additionally, Cliff offered amazing recommendations for restaurants and nightlife in the city. He went above and beyond to make sure my friend and I had an amazing time while we were in Berlin. This tour was worth every penny!

Great Tour

Excellent tour a lot of fun. We would recommend this tour to our family and friends. The tour guide provided a different Berlin experience in a different part of town in addition to great information on how r make beer and the beer industry in Berlin.

It's beer o'clock somewhere!

Scott_G, Sep 2022

Awesome 'tour'! I hesitate to call it that to manage expectations, because it's not just about places or things to drink. The host Clifton was great, kept things light but very informative. While the tour included some 'go here and try this', the host also dives into the history of beer, how it's made, and how different styles come to be. As an aside, I ran late to the start and he kept in contact until I could catch up, which was great. Ended up being grouped with a great bunch of guys from the UK as well as a couple from the US and a family from Australia. We all hung out after the tour officially ended and I think everyone had a really good time. Would highly recommend if you're in Berlin and have an afternoon to kill.
