Hunter Valley Brewery Tour from Newcastle

Want to experience the best of Hunter Valley beer in one day? This day tour from Newcastle covers all of that and so much more and is perfect for craft beer enthusiasts.

Our brewery tour takes you to three local Hunter Valley breweries, including the likes of Hope Estate and Lovedale Brewery. You’ll learn about the history of each brewing company, and see how they produce their range of unique beverages.

You’ll see the breweries in action, and have a chance to meet some of the team members behind making your favourite beers. Our expert guides will also take you through the process of how different types of beverages are made and share interesting facts along the way.
