Discover the Story Behind Every Pint – Durham Brewery Tours and Tasting Sessions

Join us for an unforgettable experience at Durham Brewery, hosted by our Head Brewer, Elly. Our tours and tasting sessions offer a unique, behind-the-scenes look into the world of brewing—perfect for beer lovers and curious minds alike.

Your experience includes four generous samples of our beers, carefully selected to showcase the range and character of our brews. Elly will guide you through a relaxed, tutored tasting, helping you explore flavour profiles and understand what makes each beer distinctive.

Along the way, you’ll learn about the rich history of beer, as well as the full brewing process—from ingredients and techniques to fermentation and beyond. The session also includes a guided walk around the brewery, giving you an up-close look at where and how our beers are made.

The tour lasts approximately 1.5 hours and concludes with a Q&A session with Elly, where you can ask anything about brewing, beer styles, or life as a head brewer.

Afterwards, you’re invited to stay and enjoy more drinks in the bar, making it the perfect way to round off your visit.

Whether you’re planning a day out, a gift, or simply looking to try something new, Durham Brewery Tours and Tasting Sessions offer an informative, relaxed, and enjoyable experience from start to finish.
