Brewery Tours in Tennessee

Craving a cold one with some local flavor? Nashville’s brewery excursions are one of the most relaxed and flavorful ways to get a taste of the city—without wading through Broadway crowds. Whether you're a hophead, a stout lover, or just curious about what’s brewing in Music City, these laid-back outings deliver craft beer with a side of local charm.

Guided by locals who genuinely know (and love) the scene, most excursions take you behind the taps at standout breweries like Bearded Iris, Southern Grist, Yazoo, and TailGate. You'll learn how different styles are brewed, hear a few insider stories, and—of course—sample a flight or two. Some stick to buzzy neighborhoods like East Nashville and The Nations, while others mix in distilleries or local bites for a well-rounded tasting experience. Transportation is usually included, so you can just kick back and enjoy the ride.

If you're short on time and just want a quick, social spin through three top spots, the Downtown Nashville Brewery Hop is a solid choice—fast-paced but easygoing. Looking for something more intimate and immersive? The East Side Craft Crawl dives deeper into community-driven taprooms with a more personal feel. For groups or bachelor/bachelorette parties, there are options with private vans, food pairings, and even beer-paired trivia nights.

These excursions are curated by locals and backed by real reviews, price comparisons, and firsthand experience—so you know you’re getting something worth sipping.
