Beyond Port Wine: Explore Porto with our Porto Craft Beer Tour

Beer-focused food tour

If you think Porto is all about Port, then think again. Beer is the drink that fuels this city daily! This Craft Beer Tour is not a pub crawl. We promise to fill your stomach and your pint glass on this evening stroll through Porto.

The craft beer scene may be young in Porto but there's plenty of history behind it. On this tour, you'll go on a journey into Porto's craft beer scene, learning about production processes, beer types and differences.

Join us on the Craft Beer & Food Tour and experience special behind-the-scenes access to a brewery and the city's first craft beer bar (second in the country). Indulge in beer tastings paired with a variety of Porto’s favorite foods, exploring the hottest four craft beer spots, including a hidden gem within a century-old market. We bet you weren't expecting to visit the fresh produce market on a craft beer tour! Brace yourself for more surprises!

Whether you're a seasoned beer enthusiast eager to expand your zythophile knowledge or someone unsure about the craft beer hype, we are thrilled to share our knowledge and the finest brews the city has to offer.

Reviews

If you like beer, this is a fantastic tour. My wife booked this tour for both of us and we both enjoyed the beer and snacks/food. There was a wide variety of beers to sample from light zesty beers to chocolatey stouts. Plenty of different beers at five different stops. Our host maintained a chatty conversation throughout. A lovely evening of food and drink. Would definitely go again. Thank you!

One of the best tours!!! Andre was awesome and had us walking all over getting to know the city. Great beer and delicious food. Thank you, Andre, for making this part of our trip memorable.

I did the Craft Beer Tour with a friend and it was very pleasant. Nice walk around Porto with a knowledgeable guide talking about the city and also the craft beer scene in the region. We visited 'Fábrica da Picaria', 'Catraio', 'Colossus', and 'Armazem da Cerveja'. We had around 11 different beers and plenty of food to go with it. I would advise you not to eat beforehand because you'll need some space in your belly to enjoy all the food as well. If you like craft beer, go for it!

My husband and I went for a beer tour with André and we absolutely loved it. The tour was a birthday gift to my husband and we sure left with a sense that we should to their other tours as well. We tried several different beers, food was plentiful and the group was small enough that we could ask very specific questions and learn more about Porto's history.
