Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

My visit to Tennent's Brewery was an absolute highlight! Our tour guide was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, adding a personal touch to the fascinating journey through the brewery facilities. Exploring the brewing process was not only informative but also surprisingly engaging. The exceptional Tennent's pint at the end was the best I've ever had! The freshness, flavour, and quality were unparalleled.

We had a great time at the Tennents Brewery Tour. Tony our guide was so enthusiastic and very knowledgeable which made for a great time. The tour does have a lot of steps which might not suit those less mobile. Definitely worth a visit if you are interested in the history of the company and the making of Tennents.

Great evening. Tour of actual logistics of the brewing process was interesting and informative. Would have liked a wee bit more of family history perhaps but am nit picking. Tasting with Tony was a couple of hours of beer, chat and cheese (literally). He was very engaging and honest. Very much recommended - your was a gift and would probably never have done otherwise and would have lost out on a memorable night. Learned a bit too!

This was an interesting visit to a working brewery, tour leader was Dan who did a great job explaining the production process and history of the company. The taste session with Dan after the tour was well explained and the beer -unpasteurised lager was brilliant. Really enjoyed the export lagers and stout and bought some in the shop but will have to order more to take home.

This was the best experience I’ve ever done! Would even come back and do it all again. There’s so much to see and Dan was a great laugh. The pint at the end was of course the best I’ve ever had too!

Hello,
Can you get a pint at the brewery without taking the tour? We will be on the hop on hop off bus and we're not sure how much time we will have.

Are babies allowed in the visitor center (with adult obviously)? Can you do tastings in the visitors center?

Best to contact Tennents and tell them the age of the baby and how you will be doing the tour. A pram would be out of the question as there are a lot of stairs to negotiate. I hope this helps take care.

I'm sure a tip would be much appreciated, maybe £5 for a couple. It is definately worth leaving a tip for the value.

I wouldn’t think so . We had to climb stairs in at least two different parts of the factory .
Bisogna avere 18 anni per entrare?

Ciao Catania G,
Grazie di averci scritto!
Ragazzi oltre 12 anni possono entrare alla fabbrica se accompagnati da un adulto, pero' non possiamo offrirli una birra.
Bambini minore di 12 anni possono entrare al Visitor Centre pero' sono proibiti di fare il tour della fabbrica, e devono rimanere al Visitor Centre con un adulto.
Se hai delle altre domande, non esitare a scriverci di nuovo!
Cordiali saluti,
Marco

Is there still the facility to pour your own pint? I done this a couple of years ago (didn't do the full tour).
Trying to help someone fulfill their 30 before 30 list and pour a pint is on it... She does love a pint of tennents so the tour would be up her street too.
