Go behind the scenes at a celebrated Lower Rhine craft brewery, enjoy a private guided tasting paired with regional artisan foods, and explore the living traditions of Rhineland gastronomy.
What to expect
Your host leads you through the brew house — mash tun, hop room, cellar — explaining the craft behind each seasonal recipe. Tastings are structured like a fine-wine flight: four to six beers paired with local Westphalian ham, Tilsiter cheese, and dark rye bread. The brewer shares the history of Rhine valley brewing culture stretching back to medieval monasteries. A convivial, sensory, and genuinely local afternoon.
Good to know
Confirm private or small-group availability directly with the operator. Most sessions run 90 minutes — comfortably within a port day. Arrange a taxi back to port; don't plan to drive. Book at least one week ahead.
