Overview
On this small-group walking tour, explore the historical streets of Old Toronto and learn how beer has played an important role in Toronto's past. Taste some of Canada's finest regional brews and visit three classic pubs, plus discover Toronto specialties at the famous St Lawrence Market.
Meeting points
NW corner of Yonge St. and Front St, outside the Hockey Hall of Fame
Your Toronto tour will start at the Hockey Hall of Fame (this is just a meeting point) and end at local icons, visiting a few others in between. With a focus on beer made in Toronto and its surrounding regions, this beer tour is known to be one of the best things to do in Toronto. Throughout the tour, you’ll learn about what role beer has played through the decades in helping Torontonians cope with cholera, fire, war, depression, rebellion, muddy streets, general Victorian stuffiness, and decades of losing seasons by the Maple Leafs (of course).
2 hours
St. Lawrence Market
This (now classic) beer tour in Toronto will visit unique and historical pubs, all with different atmospheres, patrons, servers, and, of course, beer selection. Your guide will be a verified beer geek, with a love and passion for beer that will be evident from the get go. They’ll be full of recommendations for you, and can easily help you navigate the river of local craft beers you’ll uncover along your journey. At each pub stop, beer will be included, but you are welcome to purchase more if one’s just not enough!
1 hour
Distillery Historic District
We’ll cap off the tour in the Distillery District, an old industrial park and former whiskey factory that has been converted into a hub of art, culture, and cafes. It’s a rather photogenic part of the city, so be sure your camera isn’t out of batteries before you get here!
If you’re going to tour Toronto, we’re pretty sure this is the way to do it. Beer, history, urban icons, and funky neighbourhoods – can you really get much better than that?!

Great tour guide and beers
Published on Jan, 2025
Kieran was an absolute delight to take a tour with. He was personable, knowledgeable, and recommended great beers.
I do wish the beer tour had more stops as was many other beer tours I've taken in the past, but that's to no fault of Kieran who did their best to provide with company limitations.
For the record, the beers you do get to sample are all great beers in their own rights.
Perfect Mix of History and Drinks

Kieran was outstanding. The tour was the perfect mix of history and beer. We saw parts of the city that we would have never visited. We had a blast.
Excellent tour!

We learned so much about the history of this part of Toronto from our guide. She took us to places and shared insights that we would have completely missed if not for our guide. Very personable and fun tour!
Great way to see and understand the city with added beer!

Dave was a welcoming and knowledgeable host, covering both beer and city facts. It was like walking the city with a friend who happens to know about history and brewing.
