New York Brewery Tours

Our New York brewery tours keep your group under one chauffeured reservation while you move between the taprooms you choose. Send us your pickup location, passenger count, brewery list, and any reservations or fixed tour times, and we’ll plan the driving between stops around the schedule.

The itinerary can stay within one borough or include stops across New York City and the surrounding region. If the group has dinner plans or another scheduled stop, include that too so it can be accounted for before the reservation is confirmed.

Across the Bridges, Straight to the Bar

The person who sends the group text usually ends up as the day’s unofficial guide, checking maps, steering everyone from one bar to the next, and hunting for entrances hidden behind roll-up doors on blocks with nowhere to park. With us, you hand off that job. Your chauffeur knows where each entrance is, brings the whole group right to the door, and does not pull away until the last of your friends is back on board.

Here is what else we look after on our brewery tour in New York:

• A crawl from Brooklyn to the Bronx crosses at least one river, and on a Saturday we choose whichever bridge or tunnel is moving.
• Many taprooms open only in the afternoon on weekdays, so we set the first stop of a midweek crawl to match their hours.
• Not everyone has to love IPAs. Many brewers also pour cider, wine, seltzer, or soft drinks, and whenever tastes in your group differ, we favor taprooms with a fuller drinks list. If the grape fans outnumber the hop lovers, a day among the vineyards may suit everyone better.
• Double IPAs and imperial stouts can climb past 8 percent, so if anyone would rather spread out the stronger beers, we slot a taproom known for lagers between the heavier ones.

Stops Worth Adding to Your New York Beer Tour

A Brooklyn Afternoon

Hazy IPAs are the draw at Other Half’s original Centre Street taproom, where 20 draft lines pour at the intersection of Carroll Gardens, Red Hook, and Gowanus. Limited can releases bring lines that stretch down the block, so on those days we bring you early enough to land near the front. About a mile east, Threes Brewing pours German-inspired pilsners in a roomy brewery and bar on Douglass Street, with a back patio for warm evenings and rotating chef pop-ups in the kitchen.

The Bronx and Westchester

Backyard pints are the specialty at The Bronx Brewery in Port Morris, and larger parties may book space right on the production floor among the tanks. From a Midtown or Upper East Side office, it makes a handy after-work outing for your team. Farther up, Captain Lawrence in Elmsford welcomes kids in its 6,000-square-foot beer garden, with a section reserved for adults. After a long afternoon in the garden, the little ones can nap on the way home.

Connecticut and the Jersey Shore

When the crew wants a change of scenery, we carry our New York beer tour east to Stratford and south to the shore. Anyone curious about how it’s made can join a Saturday tour at Two Roads Brewing at 1:30 or 3:30 p.m. The brewery runs these first-come, first-served, signing people up in the merchandise room on the day, capped at 20 and costing $5 each. For any group size, that means arriving well ahead of the hour, which we build into the schedule.

Near Asbury Park, Kane Brewing sells its Head High IPA only in New Jersey, so a stop there is the only way to taste it fresh.

The Fleet Behind Every Round

Groups tend to grow as the stops add up, and by the second taproom someone’s roommate has usually joined in, so a heads-up on likely extras lets us choose from our fleet with a seat or two to spare.

• For a college reunion or a company softball team’s season finale, you get our Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, the passenger van we rely on for getting bigger groups around the city, so the old stories carry on between stops.
• When friends from out of town visit for a weekend, we send our Chevrolet Suburban, whose third row has enough legroom, so nobody minds taking the back row. If your visitors also want to see the landmarks, we can turn the morning into a sightseeing loop around Manhattan before the first pint.
• Two business partners toasting a signed contract, or two old friends who love a good stout, can sit in our Mercedes S 580, which seats up to three in a cabin that feels closer to a private lounge than an ordinary sedan.
