The 1516 purity law still sets what goes in the tank, and the brewers will happily explain why. The 8 below visit working brewhouses and cellars, priced by tasting count and clear about how much walking is involved.

Taste Düsseldorf Alt beer at three traditional breweries, hear local legends, and learn how the city’s beer culture shapes its old town.
“It was so fun and informative! Luisa was an amazing guide and made sure I felt comfortable and included as an English speaker. It was very cool to experience breweries that were over 400 years old, as well as a more modern one. The other tour attendees were also lovely.”

“Brilliant tour Micheal was very knowledgable and friendly, he was very approachable and more than happy to answer any questions. The tour itself was thoroughly enjoyable, a good size group with varying nationalities made for a very fun evening. And of course the beer tasting was excellent, would have loved to try all 10 choices😂”

Sample Cologne’s Kölsch at historic beer halls, hear local stories, and compare breweries on this small-group Old Town walking tour.
“Great Kolsch-focused tour within a generally small area (1.5 miles). Andrea (our guide) was awesome! She was full of facts about Kolsch beer and Köln history! Highly recommend!”
Tour Düsseldorf’s Altstadt breweries in English, taste three Alt beers, meet fellow beer fans, and learn local brewing customs in two hours.
“Justus was amazing! Very knowledgable, very handsome (his words) and kept us entertained every step of the way. He’ll tell you everything you need to know about alt bier, the ‘terrible’ city of Köln and the close community that Dusseldörf has. Just whatever you do don’t ask him about Oktoberfest. Mistakes were made by someone in our group 😂. 10 out of 10 would highly recommend and go again!”
