Are you a craft beer enthusiast? Searching for must-do things in the Hunter Valley? This full-day brewery tour may be exactly what you're looking for!

Over six hours, you will visit three craft breweries, and our expert guides will take you behind the scenes so you can see where the artisan beers are lovingly produced. You’ll spend time taste-testing the huge range of beverages and see the best of what the Hunter region has to offer.

This brewery tour in the Hunter Valley is perfect for those who want to try incredible craft beers from all over Australia. You’ll be able to sample a huge range of drinks including pale ales, pilsners, stouts and lagers – all made using natural ingredients without preservatives or additives. Not only that but you might even get to meet the brewers themselves!

Where you may go (this is subject to change):

  • Foghorn Hunter
  • Lovedale Brewery
  • Hope Estate
  • Ironbark Hill Brewhouse

You’ll also be able to take time out from beer tasting to relax and take in the magnificent Hunter Valley scenery, as we provide you with an appetizing one-course lunch full of delicious local produce and refreshments.

Departure information:
  • If you are staying in Lovedale, Pokolbin or Rothbury we can most likely pick you up, but please advise us when booking via the booking question.
  • Pick up will be between approximately 10.15 am and 10.45 am.
  • You will be dropped off at your pick up location at approximately 4:30 pm.

Please note:
  • Your guide will inform you of the venue and choice of meals on the day of your tour.
  • If you have dietary requirements ie. lactose intolerant, vegetarian, gluten-free, allergic to nuts or shellfish etc., we will advise the restaurant and they will cater to your specific requirements. Please let us know when booking.
  • This tour accommodates a minimum of six and a maximum of 10 guests (get in touch for information on larger group sizes). Your order will be confirmed once we have filled six seats on the tour.
  • We are not weather dependent for our tours and therefore will always operate.
  • Because our tours are truly behind the scenes experiences sometimes our plans need to change to accommodate winery/brewery operations. And sometimes we just know about the goings-on around town that are worth checking out, so we may change some parts of our tours.
  • Whilst these changes are rare, we do reserve the right to make them. If you do have a must-see spot, please let us know when making your booking and we’ll do all we can to make it happen.
Please note: For larger groups of 12 to 20 people, a $500 charter fee will be charged. For any groups larger than 20, please contact us for charter fee prices.

“At Dave’s, we’re all about showing you local as we love it all; food, drinks, history, and culture. Come explore with us on tour!”

Our philosophy is simple – collaboration. We love bringing people together to taste and experience the craftsmanship of our local producers.

Whether that is on a behind the scenes brewery tour, a walk back in time through our pub culture on a pub walk, or a corporate event – everything we do is about connecting more people to local communities.

In doing so, we are supporting the passions and dreams of those who are bringing to market some of the finest products available and making visitors aware of the toil and strife that goes into producing great drinks and food.

To us, it’s more than the art and science. It’s the stories, the legends, the scars of effort and devotion to doing something different. It’s about connecting people who are passionate about what they produce with those who are equally as passionate about what they consume.
