Overview

With our passion for Cologne and its local beer specialty Kölsch, we want to take you on a journey to our favorite brewhouses in town. Become part of the Crew and try different Kölsch brands and learn why we love Kölsch so much! We spontaneously adapt every single tour to the group, so we can truly say: Our Cologne - Your tour!
On our brewhouse tour in Cologne's old town, our guides will bring you to four traditional brewhouses. In each brewhouse you will have the possibilty to try a different Kölsch and our entertaining guide will tell you everything you need to know about Kölsch, Cologne and the local mentality.

Why are the tours offered without included drinks?
In all the brewhouses, we pay the same price as everyone else. Including drinks would cause us administrative costs, we'd have to add to the tour price.
Please make sure, you have enough cash with you. Expect around €2.50 per beer.

  • Exclusive insight to our favorite brewhouses
  • Alcoholic beverages In all the brewhouses, we pay the same price as everyone else. Including drinks would cause us administrative costs, we'd have to add to the tour price. Expect €2 per beer and please have cash.
