Awesome Beers 🍻
The tour itself was fab! Matt was a mind of information and the beers were awesome! Fun day with lovely people. 100% recommended. My only bugbear was booking thru Viator and their outrageous exchange rates! €1.18 / AU$1 😱🤬 The current rate is €1.67 / AU$1 - not good @viator! Left a sour taste to an otherwise fabulous day. An error I won’t be repeating 🤯 My advice: book direct!
Response from the operator: Thanks for the awesome review and feedback Heidi, we truly appreciate it! It was such a pleasure having you and Leanne on board with us and it's so good to hear that you enjoyed the day out and everything it entailed. We did have an awesome crew and the day was made all the better by the fact that everyone got on so well. Was so impressed that tried everything on offer given you said you're more of a cider girl too! Hope the rest of your travels in Oz and Sri Lanka are amazing and would love to see you back if you are ever in QLD again and wanting to explore more of the booming beer scene! Cheers and Beers, Matt and Joslyn!

Awesome brewery tour with Hop On.
Absolutely awesome tour with great breweries visited. Our guide Matt was super knowledgeable not only about the brewing process but about all the beers we sampled along the way (and there were a few👌🏽). If you want something different, but still Aussie, this is it!! We’ll definitely be hopping on another tour. The full day would be well worth it!
Response from the operator: Thanks for the awesome review and feedback Mal, it is very appreciated! It was a pleasure having you and Todd on board and we are so glad to hear that you enjoyed the day out including the beers and the information provided!. Also appreciate you guys getting on so well with and looking after Donna who was one our oldest guests on tour to date. We'd love to welcome you both back should you ever be wanting to explore more of the booming SE QLD beer scene. Cheers and Beers, Matt and Joslyn!

Great guide + great breweries + great beers = day well spent
You would NEVER find these craft breweries on your own. And, after the first one, you will need the driver. You will go home enlightened about beer and brewing, You won't go home thirsty.!
Response from the operator: Thanks for the great review and feedback David, we really do appreciate it! We're so glad that we were able to accommodate your booking and it was a pleasure having you on board all the way from Texas! So glad to hear that you enjoyed the breweries, beers and info provided and hope you found a couple along the way that you really liked! Hope the rest of your stay in Australia is equally as good and that you find some more beer hot spots in your travels. We'd love to welcome you back should you ever return to QLD and be wanting to explore more of the booming beer scene! Cheers and Beers, Matt and Joslyn

Do yourself a huge favour !
Joslyn our guide was extremely knowledgeable, but kept the educational side of the brewery tour very light so everyone was kept engaged and the friendly banter continued throughout the extremely enjoyable tour. The beers covered the full spectrum and revealed some gems that we wouldn't ordinarily have thought to try. The vibe was very "Colin from Accounts" (the exceptional Aussie TV comedy based around an independant brewery)...... if you haven't seen it yet, do yourself a huge favour and watch the series and do this excellent brewery tour ...... in either order 😁
Response from the operator: Thanks for the awesome review, Des! It was such a pleasure hosting you and Peter - and the other 3 lads - during your all-too-short visit to Brisbane. We appreciate you spending time with us AND being willing to try a few new beer styles outside of your comfort zone (even if they didn't become new favourites). Loved all the laughs on the day and the enthusiasm amongst the crew, and I have to admit that in the days following the tour I binged season 2 of "Colin from Accounts", so thanks for the reminder :D Can't wait to welcome you back for your next visit - hopefully it isn't another 12 years. Go Lions! Cheers and beers, Jos and Matt

Great day out to start a Bucks party
I've been on a few brewery tours in the past, but this one was hands down the most informative and relaxed experience I've had. Even though some of the guys were your typical "XXXX-only" drinkers, by the end of the day, they were all sampling different beers and really enjoying the variety. I think we all walked away having learned something new! Our host, Matt, was fantastic—super knowledgeable not only about beer but also about the local brewing scene. Honestly, he could have easily joined us as one of the crew. A solid 5 stars from us! We’ll definitely be back—maybe for a winery tour next—and we’ll be recommending it to everyone we know.
Response from the operator: Thanks so much for the awesome review and feedback, we really appreciate it and it was great to have you and the lads on to celebrate the big day. We're so glad to hear that you enjoyed the day out and it was super impressive that the XXXX boys were still giving the "crafties" a nudge and actually enjoying them. Hope the rest of the night in Brisbane was equally as good and we'd love to welcome you all back should you ever be wanting to explore more of the booming SE QLD beer and distilling scene! Cheers and Beers, Matt and Joslyn

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Brisbane.
How much does Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $114 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Brisbane usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Brisbane is not rushed.
Is Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 42 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Brisbane, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour?
+
Around 15 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Brisbane can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Brisbane and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Brisbane within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Brisbane?
+
On Outty we rank every Brisbane experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include North Stradbroke Island WILDLIFE Adventure Tour from Brisbane, Australia Zoo Day Trip from Brisbane, Ultimate Brisbane Walking Tour (Small-Group, Drink Included). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Brisbane?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Brisbane?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour?
+
Included: Local guide; Pickup and drop-off from designated meeting points; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Beer tasting. Not included: Food and drinks, unless specified; and Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour?
+
2:15pm The van will be out front of the pick up location at this time. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Afternoon Brisbane Half-Day Brewery Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
