Keith who led the tour was excellent ambassador for Adnams. He had a lot of local knowledge about Southwold and the area and expertly gave a very informative tour about the brewing process and how the different beers are made. The tour was a perfect length at 1 hour and 30 minutes with plenty of opportunities to try different Adnams beers. You also get a voucher to exchange to get a free bottle or can from Adnams shop to take away with you. Great value for money, recommend booking advance online to avoid disappointment!

The Adnams Brewery tour is an absolute delight from start to finish, offering a perfect blend of fun, education, and of course, plenty of delicious beer samples. From the moment you're greeted by your friendly and knowledgeable tour guide Sam, you know you're in for a treat.
Sam's passion for brewing is infectious, and her enthusiasm shines through as she leads you through the fascinating process of beer production. From the malt room to the fermentation tanks, each step is explained in detail, giving you a newfound appreciation for the craftsmanship behind every pint of Adnams beer.
But the real highlight of the tour is undoubtedly the ample samples. From crisp lagers to robust ales, you're treated to a tasting experience like no other. Each sip is a revelation, showcasing the unique flavors and aromas that make Adnams beers so special.
What truly sets this tour apart, however, is the sense of camaraderie and warmth that permeates every moment. Whether you're chatting with fellow beer enthusiasts or sharing a laugh with Sam, you feel like part of the Adnams family from the very first pour.
In short, the Adnams Brewery tour is a must-do for anyone with a love of beer and a thirst for knowledge. With its perfect balance of entertainment and education, it's an experience that will leave you with a smile on your face and a newfound appreciation for the art of brewing. Cheers to Sam and the entire Adnams team for an unforgettable brewery tour.

Fantastic tour provided by a passionate and informative guide Sally. Really worth it to understand not just the beer making process but also the history of the brewery and Southwold itself.The tour is well thought out and tells the story from grain to bottle with a great tasting session at the end and a voucher to use in the shop for an extra treat after.We only had 4 on the tour so got to listen to Sally very clearly and came away with a great understanding and greater appreciation for the process.

We went on the Brewery Tour today. Keith was our guide and he presented a very informative and fun tour and is obviously passionate about Adnams as a company and all the products created there. It was a quiet day so the tour was leisurely and the beer tasting at the end was great and certainly introduced us to new beers that we will now drink in the future. We can thoroughly recommend this experience.

Visiting Southwold over the weekend and did the brewery tour. Kate, our tour guide, did a great job, taking us on the tour.It was fun to learn the fascinating history, and the great ties to the community, And definitely gave me a new appreciation for the brewing process! The tasting room at the end was really fun and gave me a (non-committal) chance to try a lot of their offerings. (From the US and not so familiar with cask ales).Lazy Sipa and Ghostship were highlights for me.

Attend, good folk, and hearken to my words of brevity. A brewery tour, led by Rob, a man both friendly and wise, didst bestow upon us a wondrous sojourn. With knowledge aplenty, he guided us through the realms of brewing, like a poet of hops and barley. Rob's charm didst weave bonds of fellowship, making us feel akin to kin. 'Twas an experience of mirth and enlightenment, leaving us with ale-filled bellies and hearts aglow.

Go on the distillery tour! Make your own gin, great value, terrific experience, very intimate group setting. Highly recommended - you make your own bottle of gin with a selection from 30 botanicals.
