Novotel Devonport

The Brew Hop operates brewery and distillery tours around Devonport, Launceston and Hobart. Each tour offers you the chance to taste an array of different beers, ciders and spirits at some of Tasmania's finest distilleries and breweries. You'll be guided in your tasting by a friendly member of The Brew Hop team, walking you through the steps of tasting like a professional, so you can confidently assess what you're tasting and take more away from your experience. Each tour will also give you a behind the scenes look at a distillery or brewery, where you'll get a chance to meet the people behind the products and really delve into what makes them so special. Tours offered by The Brew Hop are All-Inclusive, so you won't have to worry about your wallet on the day. You'll also have lunch at one of the fine venues and receive some inside tips from your host about getting the most out of your stay in Tasmania.

Our North West tour is a fantastic way to see some of the excellent gin, beer and cider that's produced in the Tasmanian North-West. Our first stop is at Southern Wild Distillery, home to the award winning range of Dasher and Fisher gin, for a tasting of their full range, plus a walk through their micro distillery to see how their beautiful spirits are created. The next stop is for lunch and a paddle of craft beers at Buttons Brewing, on the waterfront in Ulverstone. From there, we head back inland to see Seven Sheds, one of the oldest operating breweries in Tasmania, before finishing up at Spreyton Cider, one of the largest apple and cider produces in the states North.
