Craft Beer Tour to the United States

“Are you tired and in need of a break? Looking for a holiday that combines ALL of your favourite activities*? Perhaps you’ve been bogged down at work, peeling onions, assisting with corporate grooming or playing Telephone Tag with friends.

Maybe you’ve upset the wrong people and you’re just worried about finding a Clydesdale’s head under your sheets. How about a nice beer (correctly labelled, of course) with people who feel the same about provenance as you do? Sound too good to be true? But wait, there’s more…

You’ll get to visit breweries and meet the brewers, share in tasting sessions and lovely meals and be transported thoughtfully about the countryside in comfort while being accommodated at nights in comfortable surrounds. Need more reason to read on?

{Although this piece is written in the form of a cheesy late-night advertisement, Craft Beer Tours have paid no money to have the piece published. It is, as always, a way of supporting people who are promoting good beer and good beer culture. If they then wish to support Brews News in a monetary form, well, you know, that’s up to them (holds hands out in pathetic ‘Oliver’ style beseech position)}
