We had an amazing day on the Friday behind the scenes tour. Working in the wine business it was a lot of fun to learn about beer and see the passion behind those producing some of the best microbrews in the US. This is a great way to start our weekend in Portland as you not only get plenty of... More

We did the Friday tour and had a great time. Christina was our guide and she was wonderful. She was very knowledgeable and a lot of fun. The breweries we visited were average places with average beer but we still had a great time!

We had heard about the beer scene inPortland, and with our younger son and wife, booked this microbrewery tour of Portland. Turned out to be a warm, sunny day, perfect for seeing the town and a few of its microbreweries. We were picked up on time at a local hotel and met our tour partners: a couple from Denver and...

I wanted to plan a surprise birthday weekend for my husband and was looking in Seattle for a beer tour. They have some but I wanted something better and different. That’s when I found Brewvana! It sounded so perfect that I moved the whole party to Portland for the weekend. What a fantastic experience! I book 7 seats for us... More

The whole experience was great. We went on the Thursday night brewery tour. Our guide was Kristina. It was a great time. Kristina was knowledgable as were all the people in the different breweries. We tried tons of beer and learned a lot too. Absolutely worth the money and time for a great night on the town supporting local breweries... More

My husband and I went on a Thursday evening tour, and we both really enjoyed it. I'm not even a big beer drinker, but it was still a lot of fun. We visited three different breweries and shared appetizers and snacks with the group at the last stop. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable, and we enjoyed talking to the... More

We went on the Saturday afternoon tour with Nate as our guide. Right away the tour was great, everyone in our group was friendly (there were about 14 of us on the bus) and the pretzel necklaces were a nice touch! We made 4 stops (with a family style lunch at the 3rd stop), and there was a great variety... More

If you like beer and plan on visiting Portland, don't leave town without taking one of Brewvana's excellent tours. Our tour guide was amazing and made sure we had a fun, educational and delicious experience. Our particular tour (Behind the Scenes) took us into the breweries, we got to meet the brewers who make the beer and who shared their... More

Nate was our guide and driver for a fun afternoon touring microbreweries. We had a full van and enjoyed the group. My husband and I got to taste lots of different beers and learned a lot about beer making. We also got to see a lot of Portland. Nate was lots of fun.
