What To Expect
1
Yards Brewing Company
This is a sample itinerary. All schedules are subject to change. Founded upon humble beginnings in 1995 in a 900-square foot facility in Manayunk, Yards Brewing Company has grown into one of the area’s most prolific breweries, churning out some of the most popular and widely distributed beers in Philly. Since it’s inception, Yards Brewing Company has relocated three times and now proudly overlooks the Delaware River in Penn’s Landing. Their nod toward English ales is deeply rooted in history and blends colonial traditions with modern day flavors to produce beers fit for the founding fathers. A must-stop for learning about the progression of colonial beer as you sip presidential flights in a rich, historic city.
2
Double Nickel Brewing Co
Unlike many of the local Philadelphia area breweries, steeped in rich traditions that span decades, Double Nickel is the result of Head Brewer and Co-Founder, Drew Perry’s, hard work and commitment to the crafts. Drew has been brewing beer his whole professional life, working his way from the packaging line to head brewer. At his most recent gig, Drew led recipe development and contract brewing for a Virginia-based operation that produced beer for dozens of other microbreweries. But the dream was always the same: to return to New Jersey and start his own brewery. After tireless hours brewing and carefully cultivating flavors, he made that dream a reality when he transformed a defunct fitness and spa center into 22,000 square feet of beer producing behemoth. In only a short time, Double Nickel is already well on its way to becoming a major contender in the Philly/South Jersey craft beer scene.
3
Flying Fish Brewing Company
This award-winning brewery is the largest producer in South Jersey. Just a stone’s throw away from Old City Philadelphia and the Liberty Bell, it’s a must-visit for any thirsty beer enthusiast in the Philly area. And here’s a fun fact: Flying Fish was the FIRST virtual brewery back in 1995 (yes, the 90s!) with its very own website, making it a true pioneer in the beer space. The key words when describing Flying Fish beers are “balance” and “sustainability”. Their beers are full-flavored yet highly drinkable, and they’re still innovating to this day with their brand new canning and bottling operation, where our guides will walk you through the brewing process from ingredients to your glass. Join us on a behind the scenes look at this state of the art brewery complex that’s crafting some the most sustainable beer in the nation!
4
Love City Brewing
With a mission to create unfailingly delicious beer that is the centerpiece of Philadelphia’s table, Love City Brewing Co is a must visit in Philly. With it’s exposed brick, spacious industrial feels, Love City opened it’s beautiful wood paneled doors in 2018. Housed in what was once a defunct railroad manufacturer and more recently an mixed martial arts gym, Love City is producing accessible beers like Eraserhood (NE IPA) or their Love City Lager in retro tall boy cans that pleases even the non-craft beer drinker. Learn all about how Love City craft’s these delicious brews as we give you behind the scenes access to one of Philadelphia’s newest breweries.

Sam the beer guide was super knowledgeable and made the trip very fun. The breweries were awesome. We enjoyed Lucky Well, Eclipse, Double Nikel, and Triple Bottom in that order. The food at Lucky Well was very good. The atmosphere at Lucky Well and Double Nikel was very cool. The quaintness of Eclipse made it very enjoyable. We would definitely book another tour in the future and being friends. Highly recommend.

A little more ability of choosing our own flights. We were able to pick our own flights at one brewery, that made for a better experience. Our beer guide Matt was 5 star. Very informative, made the day fun. He took great care of our group.

Thank you for the feedback on your tour with Matt! We try to accommodate everyone's beer tastes on the tour while encouraging guests to try things outside of their comfort zone. But glad you were able to get a flight to yourself at one of the stops!
