We went on a Brewery tour at Greene King and really enjoyed ourselves. We really got to see exactly what it takes to brew the delicious beers.

We booked on a tour and it was very interesting. We also had a meal and that was good. I recommend it as a fantastic night out. Saw BSE from the top of the roof!!! Outstanding

On a wet and windy Sunday morning we decided to do the Brewery tour. Our guide was great – very informative and a great sense of humour. The tour ended with a sampling session. There's also a shop.

We had a great time learning about the history and brewing process in the Greene King brewery. At the end of the tour you get to sample some of the various ales that GK brew on site.
