XXXX Brewery Tour
In Queensland, XXXX means beer, but how did this iconic brew get its name? Find out on a fun and fascinating 90-minute tour of the XXXX brewery. Your guide greets you in the brewery’s visitor center. Enjoy an introduction to the history of beer making, and learn some of the brewery's techniques. After your introduction, walk throughout the central parts of this historic site. Put on safety gear and check out the machinery that brews, stores and bottles beer. Most weekdays, you can enter the Packaging Hall to marvel at the state-of-the-art packaging line. Watch thousands of beer bottles whiz past you on a distribution line; most breweries don't allow you to get this close! Once you have delved into the inner workings of the brewery, get instruction on how to pour the perfect glass of beer in the XXXX Restaurant and Bar. Taste four freshly made brews with a new appreciation for the work that went into making the tasty beverage. After about an hour and a half your tour wraps up. Feel free to kick back in the bar and enjoy XXXX's legendary beers or visit the gift shop before making your way to your next destination.
Burger and fries: Includes a choice of burger, including beef, chicken, brisket & mushroom. All burgers on organic house baked brioche + chips

A really interesting tour led by a retired employee who had lived and breathed the brewery for decades. And very generous with the beer tasting afterwards! Great facilities, including a full bar and kitchen. The Wagu burgers and Chicken Parmi were excellent

I recently went on the XXXX Brewery tour with Paul, and it was a fantastic experience! Paul’s deep knowledge about the brewery and its history really stood out unsurprising, given how long he’s worked there. His expertise was matched by his sense of humor; his dad jokes had everyone laughing, which paired perfectly with the laid-back vibe and, of course, the beer! The tour was informative and fun, and the tasting session was a definite highlight. I’ve officially found a new favorite in XXXX Gold! To top it all off, the burgers at the end were absolutely delicious, the perfect way to wrap up a great tour. If you’re a beer lover or just looking for a fun and informative activity, I highly recommend this tour. Paul’s enthusiasm and humor made the experience memorable. Cheers! 🍻
