Fun tour! We learned the history of these buildings as we tried different beers along the way. A fun way to spend the evening.

It might be the alcohol talking but this was a great tour! We basically had a private tour in May since it was off season and it was a lot of fun! Bring a jacket if coming in May (and maybe an umbrella)!
