I’m a Master Cicerone (1 of 29 in the world), a former Brewmaster, a Certified Sommelier and an experienced operator of fun, educational, 5-star beer experiences. I’m based in Montana, USA, and since 2017, I’ve led tours of my favorite beer spots in Germany & Belgium.
A perfect experience for anyone who likes beer and culture, regardless of whether you're a German lager lover or just curious to taste why Munich beer is so special. We'll visit a beer hall and 2 taverns, taste many different beers and 2 classic dishes, sample barley malts, and learn tasting tips, beer science & history while soaking in the sights of beautiful, beery Munich!
Though my Munich beer tour is new on Viator & TripAdvisor, check out my **all-5-star** reviews of my Montana beer tour: https://www.viator.com/tours/Bozeman/Bozeman-Brewery-Hop/d22771-5496002P1
The tour is in English (but I can speak a little German and French), and I offer written guides to Belgian beer in Spanish, French, Dutch, Italian & German.
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
We meet at the Mariensaeule, the column in the middle of the Marienplatz topped with a golden Maria figure. I'll be on the north side of the column (the side that faces the Neues Rathaus/New City Hall).
