There are multiple itineraries on the Brews Cruise. This one was Highland, French Broad and then finished at Asheville Brewing. The good - our guide was funny, personable and very knowledgable. The van was comfortable. The samples were MANY. The Not Great - they were very difficult to get in touch with via phone. The Website said to meet one... More

This review is based solely on the experience of trying to cancel our walking tour. Judging by the critiques listed of folks who actually went on the tour, it sounds like a blast. We were on vacation in Asheville and booked the walking tour for Wed, April 18, on Monday April 16. Although the web site said we would be... More

We took the mobile cruise and the party started as soon as we got on the bus. JC was our guide who got things rolling. He not only knew about beer but also how to get everyone into the party mood! First stop was Pisgah Brewery where we sampled 4 of their beers then on to Highland Brewery for another... More

This your was awesome. We went to a lot of local breweries and tried lots of beer. I was not a big beer drinker but it was because I had not found one I really liked. Steer clear of the bacon beer ( sorry Brent ) More

I booked a tour that got cancelled. When I requested a refund I was told that they could not credit my card back. That was after several calls to try to get the refund. After 45 days of calling and begging for my refund to be mailed to me by check, they still REFUSED to mail a check to me.... More

I have lived in Asheville since 1996 and had never been on the Brews Cruise before. I must say that the Brews Cruise exceeded my expectations! It was very well organized and informative along with some of the best beer that this country has to offer! Our guide Shawna did an excellent job and made friends with everyone by the... More

This tour was great for experiencing local Asheville micro-brews. We went to three breweries on our tour. The tour guide was amazing and made the experience even better! Don't plan on driving afterwards because they give you many beer samples on the tour. More

My mother bought my fiance and I tickets for my birthday for the walking tour for a weekend trip to Asheville. I was expecting a lot of younger men to be our tourmates. I was surprised to find that we were accompanied by a couple in their late 30s and their aunt and mother and four middle aged women. This... More

I wasn't going to leave a review, since my tour ended up being cancelled. I bought the tickets as a surprise for my boyfriend and we were both really excited. However, on the day of the tour, I received a call letting me know the tour was cancelled since we were the only people that had bought tickets. I knew... More

What a fun tour - wonderful experience! We are not the 'tour' type but this was great. The tour we took was a mobile saturday afternoon one to the Pisgah, Green Man, and Asheville Brewing Company. The bus ride was actually a lot of fun. The tour guides were very informative and you could tell they loved beer and Asheville.... More
