£4.30 - Bristol Brewery Taproom Audio Tour

*Please note: This is Bank Holiday Sunday and the East Bristol Brewery Trail is taking place. This tour takes you to the doorsteps of five of the breweries on the trail and points you in the direction of the other two. There will be music, street food, games and special beer launches. I reccomend that you begin your tour between 12 and 3pm. *

Tour description: 

Your tour starts at Bristol Temple Meads train station and your first brewery along the route is a fifteen minute walk away. On your way between the five breweries, of which you'll be given the back-story of each one, you'll learn interesting facts about the buildings and areas you pass by and be given a little beer based knowledge. The tour also gives the choice to stop and enjoy a pint in a beer garden at an award-winning traditional pub, owned by a Bristol brewery.

So that you can plan future beer adventures in Bristol, you'll be given the story behind several other breweries that are not quite on the route, and how to reach them. There's also tips on some later night drinking venues close to the end of the tour.

There's enough stops and advice to keep you entertained for more than one day, so you could choose to stop the tour at any time and continue another day. 

• Most of the beers being poured along this route will be vegan.
• Well behaved dogs are welcome everywhere.
• Children are welcome in most of the venues before 8pm.

Why an audio tour?

My passion for sharing things about Bristol's fascinating past and introducing people to our craft beer scene is huge. These audio tours give you more information than you'd get on a guided tour, as there's no need to stop all the time to gather a group - I (Heather) can talk to you as you walk. Using your location, the clever app that's used plays audio automatically, at exactly the right time and place. You can walk at your own pace and have as many beer stops as you like without being rushed along or having to look at your phone.

How it works:

When you buy a tour, you'll receive a unique code and instructions on how to download the tour onto your smartphone. Your code accesses the tour, which you can download in advance to use maps offline if you like. Your code is valid until 30/8/22  but once the tour is downloaded it will stay on your phone forever. 

To take the tour you will need: 

• A set of headphones.
• A smartphone with either an Android or I-phone operating system to be able to download the app.
