The Portland Signature Brew Tour

We operate rain, shine, and snow as long as the roads are safe and we have met our minimum to run the tour.

Not likely, but it is possible. In the event of severe weather or the tour does not meet the minimum number of guests required to operate it within 72 hours, the tour may be canceled.

In the event of inclement weather, the decision to cancel will be made by Brew Tours Staff at least 12 hours before the start of the tour. If roads are fair and our brewery partners are open, we make every effort to run our tours as scheduled.  If you are unable to travel due to inclement weather, please give us a call at 412-419-2337 to discuss your options. We will not be able to issue full refunds without the purchase of ticket insurance, but we may be able to find you another tour option in the future.

Our public tours include pick up/drop off service at the Mt Hood Brewing Company (401 SE Caruthers) promptly at pick up time. Don’t be the late party pooper- if you miss the bus you’ll have to arrange transportation to the 1st location.

All guests must wear closed-toe shoes to participate in the tour. This is a safety precaution that the breweries themselves are required to enforce, therefore, no exceptions can be made. If you are taking a tour during the summer months, please plan accordingly.

Yes, we can accommodate most dietary restrictions. Please inform us regarding the nature of your restrictions when booking your tour!

A note on gluten: Typically, beer is not gluten-free. Some of our tour stops do from time to time offer gluten-free options, however, we cannot guarantee their availability. Gluten-free guests should consider our non-drinker ticket, so they can purchase cider or gluten-free beer when available.

No need to worry about choosing your beers at each stop. You’ll receive a handpicked selection of local craft beer curated by our beer expert guides.

In order for us to run a tour, we need a minimum of 2 participants.

Info coming soon!

We offer 2 different public tours which you can read more about here. Because private tours are personalized, there is a sliding scale of differences between them vs. public tours. Generally, we suggest private tours for corporate events, bachelor/bachelorette parties, and other groups of over 10 guests. You can read more about our private tours here.

The details of your reservation, the pick up and drop off location for the tour, the tour itinerary, and information regarding our policies.

Ride like the Portlanders do and use public transportation to get to the pickup location– plus it’s a great way to avoid driving after your tour. Use Trimet.org to plan your trip! If you do drive, you can park in the lot under the bridge if you visit our friends at the Oregon Rail Museum either before or after your tour.

There is also plenty of street parking around Mt. Hood Brewing, but please take note of parking laws and enforcement.

You can simply show up to the pick-up spot a few minutes early, with a valid form of ID and closed-toe shoes. You do not need a physical ticket or to print out your confirmation email, just give your name to the guide!

Many of our stops are wheelchair accessible. However, our seated passenger vans can only accommodate folding wheelchairs on private tours.

You must be 21 or older and show proper identification in order to participate in our tour, even if you’ve purchased a non-drinker ticket.

We often include prepaid gratuity for parties of 4 or more. If you think your guide did a great job, we suggest tipping $15 per person.
