5.00Matt Farrell was a very knowledgeable and entertaining guide ! A superb bus tour around 4 breweries on the Gold Coast. A huge selection of beers throughout which were great on the palate for all of our team. Matt made the day great fun and a memorable excursion. A great day out for those who like independent ales and a chance to taste a wide variety !! - highly recommended!!
All hail the beermeister!

5.00Wow, Matt Farrelly is the man! A superb bus tour around 4 breweries on the Gold Coast. What he doesn’t know about beer isn’t worth knowing and all with a straight-talking, in-your-face, Aussie style! A great fun day with the beermeister and some great craft beers, ales, stouts and even a few ginger beers along the way - highly recommended!!
Great Tour

5.00Brought this as a non beer drinker for my beer drinking husband, and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. Matt was extremely knowledgeable and was even able to find me some beers that I now like! Which I thought was impossible!! Highly recommend this tour!

5.00An incredible day!! A lot of beer spread out over the day and a wonderful guide to talk us through it all. A good bit of education at the first brewery about the different types of beers and the brewing process followed by 3 more breweries of interesting beers, good food, and great conversation. Very accommodating with drop off points as well! Can’t recommend highly enough, thanks Matt!
Learn new things, sample great beer!

5.00My wife and I have gone on brewery, distillery, and winery tours for over 20 years. Not only did we learn new things on this tour, we got to meet some of the persons responsible for establishing and growing the craft brew scene on the Gold Coast. Oh yeah, and the beers were fabulous! Great variety, top quality, served in beautiful venues.
Great Tour, Highly recommend!

5.00We had a group of 10 do a Gold Coast Tour. Was a great day enjoyed by everyone. Matt was very knowledgeable and freindly. The brewery's were awesome and the Berr and Food was great at all. Highly recommend!
enjoyable and informative tour, not too boozy

4.00Collected on time and introduced to the others on tour at the start, a short drive to the first brewery, where our guide ran through some pretty useful info about the beer process, the role of each ingredient and what to look for in a good beer. Plenty pf tastings and some good food, without feeling rushed. A bit pricey, and I don't really know why a Gold Coast "full day" is only six hours - but the same applies to every tour we looked at regardless of the topic or destination. A really good tour and discovered a few brews I never would have otherwise
Goldie & Brisvegas Highlight

5.00Amazing day spent on the Goldie with Matt today! I was a repeat passenger from 2018 when Joslyn took me on an awesome tour of Brisbane... these two are both epic beer fans that know their beers and their breweries. You will not be disappointed no matter which tour you book! 🍻
