Half day Brewery & Distillery Tour – Byron Bay, Ballina & the Tweed Coast

Don’t have all day? Enjoy your morning at the beach and join us in the afternoon for an awesome arvo session! We kick things off at 2pm and will head to 2 local breweries and a distillery. Learn about the process of how our breweries and distilleries do things North Coast Style and more importantly…. sample a selection of award-winning beers and spirits.

We visit 3 of the following Breweries and Distilleries:

At each stop, you will enjoy a selection of the most popular beers and spirits from Byron Bay and surrounding areas. If you love what what’s on offer (we are 100% sure you will), feel free to grab a six-pack or bottle for later in the night.

We work closely with these fine establishments to ensure our tours meet and exceed your expectations. However, sometimes our plans need to change based on business operations. If you have a favourite that you are looking forward to visiting, please ensure that you get in touch with us and we will keep you updated closer to your tour date.

*Got a group larger than 13? Our team can accommodate groups up to 40 people and can help organise a custom tour based on your preferences. Get in touch to discuss how we can accommodate you.

Superb day on the Arvo tour We had a great time on the afternoon tour all 3 venues were great and our guide Rory was excellent, very knowledgeable of the area the venue and their products. Me and my girlfriend were the only ones on the tour so it was like a private tour and we loved it. A nice amount of time at each place and was nice chatting away with him throughout. The guy at lord Byron distillery was particularly good as his place is small and relatively new he talked us right through every product and answered all our questions. We even got a few bottles of rum and vodka as they were too good not to buy. We knew what to expect at at stone and wood as they are so big, nice selection of beers and cider unique to our tastes. Wandana is a cool little brewery with top notch beers and beautiful view. Definitely recommend the Arvo session if your in Byron. My girlfriend was pleasantly surprised as she really not a beer fan AT ALL haha.

Great tour exploring the Byron Beer scene We had a great time on the tour with Jared who was very knowledgeable and friendly. A must do in Byron as the beer and spirits scene gets even better.

Good Drank and Informative I booked a tour through behind the barrel for my partners birthday and it was a great experience! We thoroughly enjoyed our trip and Jarryd was knowledgeable of all the beverages and knew how to show us a good time, especially with the 1%ers like letting us use the aux cord for the drive! Haha - definitely recommending to all our friends.
