Alsace Breweries & Local Delicacies Tour
Savor the Region's Artisanal Beer and Food Traditions

Alsace Breweries & Local Delicacies Tour

This specialized tour reveals Alsace's lesser-known brewing heritage alongside its renowned gastronomy. Journey through historic villages and modern craft breweries to discover how traditional recipes meet contemporary innovation.

Morning: Craft Beer Origins

Your exploration begins with pickup from your Colmar accommodation. Arrive at a picturesque micro-brewery nestled among the vines, where traditional brewing methods have been perfected since 1998. Here, amid the tranquil setting of a traditional biergarten, sample distinctive local brews that reflect the region's Germanic and French influences. Depending on the day of your visit, you may even have the opportunity to explore the brewery itself, followed by a specially organized tasting experience for you and your party.

Lunch: Medieval Villages & Regional Flavors

Continue to the historic town of Riquewihr, where half-timbered houses and ancient ramparts create a perfect backdrop for understanding how brewing evolved in medieval Alsace. In nearby Kaysersberg, discover how modern craft brewers draw inspiration from centuries-old recipes. Break for lunch here, where traditional winstubs (wine rooms) now serve craft beers alongside Alsatian specialties.

Afternoon: Artisanal Excellence

Visit the Welche district's traditional Artisan Brewery, now part of the Eaux de Vie museum. Here, the de Miscault family collaborates with master brewer Joel Tournier to produce organic blonde, amber, and white beers. Learn how spent grain supports local farming in a perfect example of sustainable production. Enjoy a tour and tasting at the brewery, and do not miss the opportunity to explore the nearby Brandy Museum.

Following the brewery visit, your guide will take you to various destinations based on your preferences where you can complete your gastronomic journey with visits to artisanal producers. Sample Munster cheese and experience how its bold flavors complement local beers, and discover Niedermorschwihr's acclaimed jams, where traditional recipes transform local fruits into culinary treasures.

After a day filled with unforgettable flavors and experiences, you will be transported back to Colmar.
