Enjoy A Local Brewery Tour

Touring a local brewery can be fun and also a great learning experience. Find out about how beers are brewed and you're sure to take even more enjoyment the next time you sample a beer.

Living in the UK, it's clear that the drinks marketplace has faced increasing competition from imported wines. Wine seems to be the choice of drink for many more people. It has a continental feel and sometimes seems more upmarket.

These emphasis on wine is disappointing for many. The UK continues to produce many of the world's finest beers. If you've been unable to spot them then you might like to consider that they could be right under your nose!

As lager has gained more of a foothold in pubs and supermarkets, the great real ales that are produced in this country have often been shunted aside, replaced by poor imitations from elsewhere in Europe.

Despite this, the growth in the UK's smaller breweries offers real hope. Local breweries have been springing up all over the country, making great quality beers at very reasonable prices.

If you want to find out more about great beers then consider actually visiting your local brewery. Many welcome visitors, allowing you to tour the premises and find out more about the brewing process and the different beers that are produced.

The reason that they welcome people who want to find out more is because they know that many drinkers switch from wine or lager to real ale once they've found out more about it and started to drink it more regularly.

If you're already a fan of real ales then a trip to the brewery is a great experience.

If you've not yet discovered the pleasure involved in drinking great beers, then what better way to make a start?
