All of our tours include the following:
- Beer. Usually a flight or samples, followed by a round (depending on the location) at each brewery.
- Food. A full meal, typically provided halfway through the tour. Our usual food stops are Third State Brewing (catered by Francesco Pizzeria-Ristorante) for Bucks county, and either 2nd Story or Dock Street for Philadelphia. We’ll have everything ordered up so it’s ready when you get there.
- Water and Philly Soft Pretzels (picked up fresh from the factory just before the tour begins)

Here’s an example of what kind of schedule you can expect for each tour. This is subject to change based on brewery availability, but won’t vary too much.
11:30AM: Pickup at Cornwells Heights station.
11:50AM: First stop: Naked Brewing! We’ll have 4 samples waiting for you when you get there. One of the brewers/owners will give a quick tour of the facility and answer questions. Afterwards, you’ll have another beer or a flight on us.
1:15PM: Broken Goblet Brewing. We’ll have a private setup in the brewhouse with 4-6 pitchers. We’ll get an informal tour as we sample. We’re also member of Broken Goblet’s ‘Irregular’s Club’, so we’ll be able to check out the super secret members-only beer hidden somewhere in the facility.
2:40PM: Third State Brewing: A late lunch of pizza, wings, and beer. The food is provided by Francesco Pizzeria-Ristorante, but the Third State guys are nice enough to let us host everything at their place (as long as we bring a few extra pizzas!). Flights are on us. A quick look at the brewhouse is available for those interested.
3:50: Neshaminy Creek Brewing. We’ll do samplers here – 4 per person. Neshaminy Creek tends to have a lot of beer on tap, so we’ll get a wide variety and let you pick and choose. Depending on the day, we can often get a backstage tour from the prince of beer, Pat.
5PM: Back at the station for departure.
Other Bucks County stops could include Crooked Eye, Spellbound, or Village Idiot.
11:30AM: Pickup at 2nd and Chestnut in Old City Philadelphia 19106.

1:15: Crime and Punishment Brewing. We’ll dive into their ever-rotating tap list with 4-6 5oz. samples. We’ll also take a look at their brewhouse – quite the contrast to Philadelphia Brewing’s setup. Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike, or Adam will be available to talk about their brewing process and how they’re taking the initiative in bringing beer back to Brewerytown.

11:45AM – We start off at Tower Hill Brewing in Chalfont Village. There’s plenty of parking, and we’re able to get started right away. Inside, we’ll have a section reserved and flights being poured as we walk in the door. Tower Hill has a ton of beer on tap, so don’t hesitate to ask for some extra samples. From here, it’s just a short ride to Doylestown.
1PM – Doylestown Brewing – We’ll set up in a private room upstairs near the brewhouse. Pizza and a variety of appetizers are provided in addition to a flight. We’ll also get a tour of the facility and be able to talk with the brewers.
2:15 PM – Bucks County Brewery – Heading up north a bit, we’ll visit Bucks County Brewery as our third stop. As it’s tucked away in an unmapped section of Plumsteadville, this is one where you’ll be happy you’ve got a tour guide ! Have a flight on us, of course, and enjoy the relaxed atmosphere.
3:30 PM – Mad Princes is our last stop in central bucks. It’s the definition of an intimate setting – you’ll get plenty of time to talk shop and beer with the brewers while enjoying a flight or pint.
