A truly unforgettable experience for the craft ale fanatic in your life. Our ‘Be A Brewer for the Day’ provides the joys and pleasures of brewing your own beer and honing your skills! You’ll spend the day as part of our award-winning team and work alongside our Master Brewer.
The recipient of this gift can call us before arranging their visit to specify what they would like to do during the day from a range of activities including:
- Mashing in
- Sparging
- Morning tea break with discussion about malt & barley
- Boiling the Wort
- Hop Pitching
- Lunch at the Brewhouse & Tap with beer
- Transferring & Cooling the Wort
- Afternoon tea break with discussion about hops & yeast
- Yeast Pitching
- Fermentation explanation over a beer or two
After two weeks the lucky recipient of this gift can collect 10 litres of the beer they helped brew and a certificate to reflect the experience.
This experience starts at 8.15am and lasts until 4pm. We will collect from Lancaster Station if arriving by train. The maximum group size is 4.
Please note that we are a working Brewery and the tour takes you right into the heart of the brewhouse. There may be some water on the floor and our Brewery team will be working around you. The viewing platforms are reached by stairs and are quite high. Unfortunately there is limited disabled access on the tour. Please wear walking boots or sturdy footwear and clothing that may get wet and or dirty.
