Great wee tour conducted by Michael. Easy to book the tour at the bar, the bartender was extremely helpful. Location is fantastic within easy distance of Inverness centre, fantastic bar and selection of beers and spirits. A highly recommended visit while in and around Inverness.

Really good tour, guide very knowledgeable and took time to explain, tasting is a bit poor considering the cost, 1/3 of a pint and a very small whisky, felt it could have been better, do you really want to sell the product.

We did the Discovery Tour at Uile-bheist Brewery & Distillery on December 26th at 8:30 p.m., and it was the perfect way to end our very first day in Inverness. We were coming straight from an 18-hour flight from Argentina, and despite being tired, this experience completely exceeded our expectations. I went with my husband, and we had an absolutely wonderful time. It was a fantastic first introduction to a distillery experience. Our guide, Tabbie, truly made the night unforgettable — she was outstanding. Funny, incredibly knowledgeable, and full of fascinating stories and history, she was everything you could hope for in a tour guide (and more!). Thank you, Tabbie — you were amazing. The beers were excellent, and we also had the chance to taste their whisky blends, which are designed to reflect the style of the whisky they are currently maturing. As a newer distillery without its own aged whisky yet, this was a really interesting and enjoyable approach — and both blends were delicious. It’s also worth mentioning how lovely and welcoming the bar is. It’s a place you’d happily return to at any time of the year, whether you’re visiting Inverness or live locally. A huge thank you to Tabbie and the entire Uile-bheist team for such a memorable experience. Highly recommended!

I really enjoyed the tour of the brewery with Ali. If you enjoy beer and whisky it's a must do. The tasting at the end was a particular highlight.

Ali, our tour guide had great knowledge on the history and start up of the business, however, his knowledge on the production of product was flawed and the tasting was not as advertised (no new make spirit) no guidance through the tasting, left a little disappointed, feeling it wasn't value for money!

Very enjoyable tour. The guide was very informative and enthusiastic and clearly loved his job. I loved the whiskey I sampled and the beer sold at the bar is excellent as well.
