Father's Day Brewery Tours

Celebrate Father’s Day with a guided tour at DESTIHL Beer Hall & Barrel Room. A knowledgeable guide leads a start-to-finish look at the brewing process, covering what is brewed, how it is made, and why each step matters. The experience includes four beer tastings that tie each stage of production to the flavors in your glass. Each tour is capped at 30 participants. Every attendee takes home a pint glass coolie featuring the logo. Please bring a valid ID and wear closed-toe shoes, and plan to meet at the main brewery entrance by the fireplace.
