What is included in the tour: “The tour begins in our tasting room and flows the way the spirits go, past the grist mill where you can taste some of the various strains of malted & un- malted barley, or other cereals that we as a craft brewer as well as a distiller get to play and experiment with. Onward into the heart of the Brew & Still house through the smells of the mash tun & wash backs, past the gleaming swan necked Stills and then up into the warehouse and bottling hall before returning back to the visitor’s centre. Tour includes 3 beer samples and 2 whiskies.” (https://macaloneydistillers.com/).
Trivia?: Yes, we want to do trivia, and we are working with the brewery on creating
questions (that may or may not be based on the tour…). We also hope to be able to
get prizes for this trivia.
