Brews Before I Do’s: The Ultimate Scottsdale Beer Tour

Birthday gift well received…most thanks to Luke! He was on time, greeted us with enthusiasm and educated us throughout the process! Local breweries had something for everyone and the experience was top notch. Anyone wanting to know a little bit more about beer and step out of your comfort zone book him immediately! Super fun for a date, great for a group of friends and an unforgettable experience for a team building event! Thanks Luke!

We hopped on the Original Phoenix Brewery Tour and it was the perfect blend of good brews, great people, and even better stories. Luke, our beer guide, poured out equal parts knowledge and charisma. Every stop had its own story — Luke’s insider insights made each pint feel personal. We discovered new breweries and sampled beers we probably wouldn’t have ordered on our own. Between the endless tastings and perfectly timed pretzel bites, it was worth every sip and cent.

Luke is the best! What a great tour of different breweries. All unique in their own way. Luke does an excellent job teaching the brewing process and showing behind the scene visuals. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a fun laid back tour!

Such a fun experience! It made for the perfect group date night. Matt, our tour guide, was awesome and very knowledgeable about beer brewing and the breweries we visited. Got to tour & taste at Fate Brewing, Walter Station, and Shop Beer Co. Would definitely recommend for a fun and different date night or group outing.

Luke was absolutely amazing as a tour guide! The tour was extremely informative and I learned a lot about the brewing process. The three breweries we went to were a blast and I loved being able to get the behind the scenes look at their processes. The drive between breweries was so fun and Luke did a great job at getting us all to connect. At the end of the tour, I felt we were all friends and got a great tour of the Valley through beer. Cheers!

I had A LOT of fun!!! I’ve always wanted to join a beer tour, but felt very intimidated for not knowing what I would get myself into, especially being forced to buy products or merchandise. This tour was none of that!! It was in fact very educational! I love that we even got to go to the back of the brewery! Issac, our guide, and Holly the owner we’re both amazing human!! I enjoyed every moment of it! I would recommend it to anyone and love to go back again soon!

Incredibly accommodating so much variety, great partners all over the area, learned a lot and a heck of a lot of fun. HIGHLY recommend!

Luke is a quirky son of a gun. Sure made for a good time. Left a little toasty, what a fantastic tour.

What an absolute blast! I recently joined City Brew Tours in Scottsdale for a brewery crawl, and it was a fun and memorable outing, I would sign up again! Our guide Luke was an absolute rockstar. From the moment we met at the starting point he had an effortless way of making everyone feel like old friends. We got to see the behind the scenes for how craft brewerys make thier brews and also the barrel-aging process. With a mix of strangers in our group, Luke kicked things off with icebreakers, facts and jokes that had us laughing from our first sips to our last, Cheers!

The tour was a lot of fun and Luke was awesome. I loved learning about the different breweries and seeing the brewing process first hand. The beer and pretzel bite pairing was a nice touch.

Jeannie was a wonderful guide! She took us to 3 great breweries and selected an excellent variety of beers for us to try. Jeannie was friendly and knowledgeable -- we had an awesome time! Thanks, Jeannie!

We had the best time on our tour, we had Holly and it was a blast! She picked great places and the beer selections were based off our preferences which we loved. She was incredibly knowledgeable on both the beer making process and general beer trivia and was great to talk to. Highly recommend!

This was my first beer tour and I had a great time! Our tour guide/shuttle driver, Luke, was knowledgeable, had fun energy, and made everyone feel at ease the entire time. The tour consisted of three different breweries spanning Phoenix, Tempe, and Scottsdale. We were given backstories on each one during our drive between them. Once we arrived, we tried four different beers from each of the locations, discussing things such as flavor profiles, food pairings, and even the backstories behind some of the special brews. We also received behind the scenes tours of the brewing and canning equipment along with an overview of how beer is made. Make sure to follow all of the rules listed in your confirmation email and waiver. Do that and you'll have an enjoyable outing getting to know a few of the great breweries Phoenix has to offer!

Had a great time with Luke as our guide! Very knowledgeable and A LOT of brews for the price point. Well worth it!

Learned a lot about beer making process. Great way to sample various beers, even ones I wouldn't normally try!! Jeanne is very knowledgeable in styles and making of beer!! Fun experience!

Luke was an awesome guide. Super knowledgeable, great brewery insight, and he could chirp back at the group which kept the vibe perfect and fun.
