  • 5awesome

    We had an excellent experience on the Hop-On Brewery Tour and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area. Our host, Joslyn, was outstanding. She was incredibly knowledgeable about beer, spirits, and wine production, and shared her expertise in an engaging and easy-to-understand way. She paced the tour perfectly and tailored it well to our group, making the experience both informative and relaxed. The breweries we visited were all excellent, with fantastic tastings at each stop. The food provided during the tour was also outstanding high quality, generous in portion, and more than adequate. Overall, it was a well-organized, enjoyable, and memorable day. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Whether you are a homebrewer, beer drinker or craft beer enthusiast you will have a great day out with the lads, the ladies or both. Our wives went and pampered themselves while we took the tour, had a ball, learned a heap about beer, laughed, ate, and drank cracking beers. Highly recommend!

  • 5Bucks Party Success

    Matt picked up a group of 12 lads for a bucks party and didn't miss a beat, it was fun, energetic and extremely informative. Matt has nailed the balance, but his passion and personality really make it special. You also drink a lot of interesting beers, so a huge green tick.

  • 5All hail the beermeister!

    Wow, Matt Farrelly is the man! A superb bus tour around 4 breweries on the Gold Coast. What he doesn’t know about beer isn’t worth knowing and all with a straight-talking, in-your-face, Aussie style! A great fun day with the beermeister and some great craft beers, ales, stouts and even a few ginger beers along the way - highly recommended!!

About Brisbane

Brisbane is Queensland's riverside capital, a sunny subtropical city of parklands, galleries, a koala sanctuary and ferries on a looping river.

Brisbane winds along the bends of its river, with the centre on a peninsula and suburbs climbing the hills on either side. It began as a convict settlement in the 1820s, and the Old Windmill on Wickham Terrace and the Commissariat Store survive from that time. Today sandstone, glass towers and leafy streets stand together, and the Story Bridge, finished in 1940, spans the river beside the city.

Top-ranked sights in Brisbane: Brisbane River, Story Bridge, Kangaroo Point Cliffs Park.
