Itinerary

  1. In Queensland, XXXX means beer, but how did this iconic brew get its name? Find out on a fun and fascinating 90-minute tour of the XXXX brewery. Your guide greets you in the brewery’s visitor center. Enjoy an introduction to the history of beer making, and learn some of the brewery's techniques. After your introduction, walk throughout the central parts of this historic site. Put on safety gear and check out the machinery that brews, stores and bottles beer. Most weekdays, you can enter the Packaging Hall to marvel at the state-of-the-art packaging line. Watch thousands of beer bottles whiz past you on a distribution line; most breweries don't allow you to get this close! Once you have delved into the inner workings of the brewery, get instruction on how to pour the perfect glass of beer in the XXXX Restaurant and Bar. Taste four freshly made brews with a new appreciation for the work that went into making the tasty beverage. After about an hour and a half your tour wraps up. Feel free to kick back in the bar and enjoy XXXX's legendary beers or visit the gift shop before making your way to your next destination.

    This was such an informative and fun tour! We learned a lot about XXXX brewery and got to sample the different beers at the end. And the lunch package that we added on as part of the tour was delicious. Our guide was super friendly and knowledgeable!

  • 4Iconic tour but sometimes less is more

    Iconic! Even better if our tour guide Ruby slowed down a bit so we could keep up with what he was saying. He clearly knew his stuff but maybe checking his audience (we were with the olds), asking more questions at the beginning to understand where they’re visiting from, and reducing the word count by at least 50%, would have taken the tour to the next level.

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.
