    Loved this event and all thanks to Yelp SB. I love the little foodie community Yelp is building here! This was my first beer festival and I'm hooked. I loved the variety, the different vendors, and cute take away glass. Loved this event and can't wait to attend more in the area!

    Gotta start with one of them!! What's next??

    The VIP hour was worth it because there was many specialty small batch beers being poured during this hour.

It's a school bus that has been redone on the inside to provide you ample with space and room to hang out and relax during your trip. Also the seats have been moved to face inward so that you can hangout and talk to people with ease. Second the owners. The owners are simply amazing. They were so nice. They made you feel welcomed the minute you board that bus. And what can I say about meatball. That bulldog is hands down the best bulldog ever. On our trip we went to 4 breweries. They all we really nice and they provide you with more than enough beer to satisfy your cravings. We started off at Ventura then went to Carpinteria and finally ended at Santa Barbara. I will definitely be back. This was a fun experience. I can't wait til I board again

    I didn't really know what to expect going on this beer tour but what ended up happening was such a…read moregood time. My boyfriend and I (he was the one that convinced me to go!) met at the start location to get a ride from Santa Clarita to Ventura.( They said they have tours that start in Ventura as well.) We drive up and see this amazing modified school bus. This bus stands out in the best of ways. We saw one of the owners standing outside the bus, she greeted us and then we went on inside this beast of a bus. The inside is even cooler! I swear, I have no other way of explaining other than it's like a limo. The seats are facing each other so it's easier to have conversations. The lighting is so chill, I was already excited. As we walked in, the other owner welcomed us aboard the awesome brew bus and we took the last seats next to each other. When we sat down we met their most wonderful mascot the english bulldog, Meatball. He was so nice and well-behaved. ( I figured mascot as they have meatballs face on their awesomely designed bus) The ride up wasn't long and they played nice music so it went by even faster. Once we arrived, we found ourselves at the Anacapa Brewing Company where we officially met everyone on the tour. We were given a flight of tasters. It was perfect because I love trying all kinds of beers, but not a whole pint each. Once everyone got the flights on the table, everyone started talking to each other. So any sense of awkwardness i had, disappeared at that moment. Were then boarded the bus and all headed Surf Brewery, which was another great place. Different tasting beers than the first place and another great atmosphere. We were given a piece of paper with 4 beers to choose from for your flight. We chatted it up with other people that were on the bus and we were just saying how much fun this was. The third place we went to was in Carpinteria called Island Brewing Company. When we walked up to this place, you can see the train tracks and a beautiful view of the sky slowly setting. We got to have a tour of how the beer is made there and loved being able to go behind the scenes. After we were given our flights of beer, we went outside were we could put our beer down and watch the sunset. As the sun was almost down, we went onto the bus for one last place. Pure Order Brewing Company in Santa Barbara which was not far at all from where we were. We hopped off the bus to find we were in a pimped out garage with such a cool backyard with games to just chill and hang out. We were given our last flight of beer. They were good too. What I realized was whether you go with someone or just by yourself, you will have a good time. For a day, you get to hang out with a group of people that just want to have fun and enjoy all kinds of different beer. The owners are amazing and you can tell how much they want us to have fun and stress free. I will definitely be going on this again. They told us that they have other breweries on their tour as well, which I thought was super cool. Consider me a fan guys, I've officially warmed up to beer thanks to Brew Bus 101.

She took us to 2 wine tasting spots - Riverbench & Cebada Wine Tasting - and 1 beer tasting spot - Night Lizard. Each wine tasting gave us 4 to 5 wines to taste and the brewery gave us a flight with 4 glasses! We started our tour at the train station, walked all throughout State Street, and finished our tour in the Santa Barbara Courthouse. Melissa carried so much historical facts and knowledge about the city, from the architectural design, past earthquake effects and the rebuilding process, the city's Old Hollywood vibes, significance of museums and historical landmarks, and all the delicious food spots to visit! She was so kind as to give us recommendations on places to visit as we made our own personal stop to Solvang the next following day. We couldn't have asked for a better tour and tour guide! We love the city of Santa Barbara and we enjoyed learning its history and greatly admired how the city has successfully preserved its culture, architectural traditions & vibrant patterned designs! We will see you soon!

    If you're doing a food tour and you're walking through the city, you should definitely have some…read morehands sanitizer or have spots along the way, picked out to be regularly washing your hands. You also should refrain from touching people's plates and cups as you discuss and show them the food items. I understand it's a food tour, but especially when you don't have clean hands, it's highly unsanitary! It's also a good idea to not greet dogs and let them lick all over you ... your hands.... your arms AND your face while you're interacting with people who are eating food, bringing them food from the restaurant & leading a tour. It's a good idea to give people space after you give them the information about the tour and the food and the art and let them socialize with the people that they came with. We should not have experience the person who is giving the tour or learning how to give a tourist next to you constantly asking you questions about what you're eating, what you're trying, where you're from or other questions that are really irrelevant .. it is pretty annoying & doesn't allow you to enjoy the experience fully. It's not a good idea to take shortcuts, because it's easier for you as the tour guide. One of our group members ate meat. The other 2 are vegetarians, but to keep it simple or make it easier. She was repeatedly offered vegetarian options and not given the opportunity to try the meat options along the tour. This was frustrating as you were very clear when setting up the tour, what the food restrictions were, we reminded them again when we got to the beginning of the tour and also reminded along the tour. How often will we need to say it in order to get the full experience. Although the tour guide and her trainee were very nice & social, it is not likely not an experience we'll do again.

Hannah was very friendly and accommodating to our requests. There was plenty of food to eat and a couple of adult beverages included. The photo tips were marginal, but we didn't care as we booked the tour for the fun of walking around town and tasting the delicious food. The highlight was Kim Jensen, owner of the Ingeborg's Danish Chocolates, giving us a wonderful tour of his factory and sharing lots of chocolate treats!

The wine tasting took long as well because the staff was just not attentive. At least wines were OK (drinkable) and we purchased two bottles and saved 20% off each thanks to the app. Then we proceeded to the Oreana winery across the street. Again, the staff was overwhelmed. We finally got our spot and started tasting wines. They were UNDRINKABLE! We travel all over the world and taste wines and these wines were the worst. You taste chemicals and tannins, not the wine. We ended up paying tasting fees for these horrible wines and left without buying anything. Disappointed by the overall experience, we decided to give the third tasting room a try. Area 5.1. was not as busy as the other two, but their wine was nothing remarkable. I am not sure if the Seeker app sends people to the worst tasting rooms or if all of them in the Funk Zone serve inferior wine because it's a touristy place and people will drink anything. Because of such disappointing experience, we did not go to all wineries on the Anacapa Wine Walk, and it was a waste of money and our time.
