What To Expect

1st Republic Brewing Co

These breweries are sample itineraries only. All schedules are subject to change. The founders of 1st Republic Brewing, Shawn Trout and Mike Drake, both served on active duty and with distinction overseas before returning to Vermont to serve up some of the best Veteran crafted brews. In fact, 1st Republic was voted 2018’s VT Veteran Owned Small Business of the Year. They love everything about beer from brewing it to drinking it to teaching about it and to sharing it. Friends, family, and beer lovers can gather ’round the taproom for fun, games, locally delivered food, and raising a glass to good beer and good times.

Queen City Brewery

Founded in 2014 by long-time friends and brewers Paul Hale, Paul Held, Phil Kaszuba, and Maarten van Ryckevorsel, Queen City Brewery brews a variety of traditional ales and lagers, as well as several unique specialty beers with a focus on giving the customer a unique experience with unexpected notes in their beers that they’ve aged and fermented to produce complex flavors unlike anything you’ve ever tasted. (So yeah, we’re pretty much changing your life by bringing you here. No need to thank us.) On our tour, you’ll see why this foursome rose to frothy success as you sip your way through their suds, including a rare style they brew call ‘Steinbeer’ that’s brewed with hot rocks. The process grants less temperature control to the brewer and imparts a smoky, caramel flavor. Yep, we’ll say it again: life-changing.

Zero Gravity Craft Brewery

Founded in 2004, Zero Gravity Brewing was born inside a restaurant that Flatbread head brewer, Destiny Saxon, and Zero Gravity brewmaster, Paul Sayler, created called American Flatbread Burlington Hearth. For years, they brewed exclusively out of the brewpub location, but as their popularity and demand grew, in 2012, they began distributing Zero Gravity for off-premise sales, and two years later, they had fully maxed out the production at the Flatbread Brewpub. Forced to find more space, they moved operations to a beautiful 30-barrel facility in Burlington’s South End Arts District, and in the spring of 2015, the Pine Street Brewery was born.

For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

I thought the tour was a bit expensive, so I had my reserve. When the guide picked us up in a van that was really packed, I was disappointed. But then the tour started and all my doubts faded away. Our guide, Devon, was great. The city of Burlington is gorgeous. We visited 4 micro-brewery: Zero-Gravity, Magic Hat, Switchback and Fiddlehead. We had lunch at Folino's. The food was amazing. For, in the end, it was well worth the price. I certainly recommend the experience to anyone in the Burlington area.

I went on the Burlington Brewery Tour this past weekend. Our tour guide, Matt, was excellent. He knew so much about beer, the breweries and the whole local scene. You could tell he had a good relationship with people at each brewery we went to. We got to visit 4 breweries, got to try a bunch of beers, had a delicious lunch (included) and got recommendations for what to do the rest of our weekend in Burlington. It's a great way to cover a lot of ground, try a lot of different kinds of beer and get a feel for the town all in one afternoon. Plus you don't have to drive!

First, take every review with a grain of salt and don't base your decision off a few bad reviews. we saw them after we booked and it turned out to be a great day! We were on the trip with 3 other couples, got to know them and had a great time. Matt, our tour guide was so knowledgeable and very laid back. The first pub is a little blah but after that you go to some awesome places. We had a delicious lunch with great beer at Fiddlehead. Went to Switchback and Magic Hat after and they were great! It was a great way to try all these places and learn a ton about Vermont, Burlington and the breweries.
