Description

Join us on a journey through Gdansk’s rich brewing history with The Best Tour Guide team!

Our adventure begins in an authentic local brewery in the Old Town, where you’ll taste four classic beers that have been enjoyed in Gdańsk since the 14th century. You’ll also sample a legendary local brew that was once exported across Europe as a luxury drink and discover the unique story behind its revival.

As we stroll through the charming historical streets, your local guide will share tales of a famous astronomer who not only studied the stars but was also one of the city's premier brewers. We’ll pass the impressive Grand Mill, once a key player in the city’s beer production, and uncover its vital historical role in supplying grain and malt. Along the way, you’ll discover centuries of brewing traditions, trade secrets, and local legends that shaped the region.

The second part of our experience takes us to a cozy craft beer bar in the heart of Gdańsk’s Main Town. Here, we shift from rich history to the vibrant present, exploring Poland's modern craft beer revolution.

As you settle in, we will introduce you to the diversity of contemporary brewing styles, ingredients, and techniques. You’ll sample five distinct craft brews, each offering a unique flavor profile, from hoppy IPAs and fruity sours to smooth lagers and rich stouts.
