This is a genuine working brewery and production numbers vary, as such, the Carlton Brewhouse cannot guarantee that all areas of the brewery will be in operation on the day of your tour.
The Carlton and United Brewery tour gives you an insight into the history and tradition of beer brewing in Australia, the art of brewing, and a birds-eye view of the plant's state-of-the-art technology. Of course a brewery tour wouldn't be complete without some complimentary tastings of fresh, cold beer afterwards!
The Brewhouse kitchen is open from midday Wednesday - Sunday and every Thurs, Fri and Saturday evening so you can enjoy a pub meal before or after your tour. Tours are available Wednesday to Sunday, including Thursday, Friday & Saturday evenings. Not available Monday, Tuesday or Public Holidays. Please note that the bottling line generally doesn’t operate Saturdays, Sundays and some Fridays as the brewery operates on a ‘brewery fresh’ basis and production schedules vary.
