Top 6 Beer Cities. I’ll drink to that!

1. Munich, Germany

Beer lovers the world over have a soft spot for Munich because of one thing – Oktoberfest! This is a 16-day festival where travellers can sample tonnes of beer varieties as well as classic Bavarian dishes, like bratwursts and pretzels. The festival attracts over 6 million people who consume over 7 million litres of the good stuff. In addition to Oktoberfest, Munich has many beer gardens and brewery tours all year round – we recommend the Paulaner and Erdinger tours. 

2. Dublin, Ireland

Dublin is home to one of the most loved beers of all time – Guinness. The Guinness brewery or Storehouse is the most visited place in Ireland. Tours are run here, taking you deep inside the Storehouse to show you how the beer barrels are transported and we guarantee you will leave a well-informed Guinness expert! Don’t forget your free pint and be sure to try other local stouts and foods for a sure-fire experience. 

3. Montreal, Canada

The city offers an extensive range of Canadian brews likes ales, bocks and lagers. You can also learn about what you’re drinking, with many events, seminars and workshops about the brewing process.
