This was my first time doing a brew tour and it was an absolute blast! Even though we are in the middle of a pandemic and many things are closed, Craft Brew Tours took all precautions and made sure we were all safe on the bus and at the breweries. They were really quick responding to my emails and kept open communication throughout the whole booking and experience. On the day of our private tour, they arrived right on time. The bus is super nice inside (has a cooler with water, cups, LED lights, and a Bluetooth speaker system). The drive to the breweries was super smooth and the timing at each brewery was perfect. The only downside of the night was when it ended, because we were having so much fun. Can't wait for my next brew tour with Craft Brew Tours :) read more

Booked another brewery tour with Craft Brew Tours and once again we had another 5 star experience. Planning was easy. They showed up on time and took us to our destinations safely and were a pleasure to work with. Can't wait until the next time! read more

Mark sucks!!!!!! (Ps... mark is showing his own character by responding to my post with lies...keep reading how I refute him again! At the end of my first post) First post: "He allowed me to plan a party of 15-20 people for a 40$ basic package where I was under the impression he was going to book with me for a specific date. I had to cancel a 30th birthday party when We inquired for almost two weeks and within minutes of him giving me a link to book, he gave my reserved date we inquired through back and forth of emails, text messages and phone calls. When I asked why, he said it was because he took someone else's credit information over mine within minutes. His excuses were unprofessional and plain rude. He wasted my time for almost for weeks as we sent emails and texts to reserve in advance. Goes to show he truly does not care about customer service. This person is unprofessional, unorganized and plain rude! He also does not get back in a timely fashion and will say it was your fault you didn't respond within minutes to his email to book and will give your date away regardless if the opportunity of money presents itself. you better book asap!" "Mark, first off you are showing all your clients your true character and own ass by being tacky and disgruntled by lying on multiple accounts. The pictures I uploaded show how period point blank, YOU DIDNT ALLOW ME TO BOOK BC YOU GAVE MY DATE AWAY.!!!!!!! There is no confusion, you dishonored our multiple phone calls, emails and texts and gave me the run around to RESERVE!!!!!!! You also told me I could not book online that your website was down, you also book so how can I reserve the date online? Second of all, you are saying you contacted me, I have the proof through pictures that my response was in minutes and you contacted me after the fact you booked with someone else. Look at the times in the pictures!!!! They don't lie, not to mention through the phone I asked you to honor your WORD to not give my date away that I would book with you and this is where you are pathetic as a person. Accept you fucked up, you also offered me extra business bc you felt bad, why else would you offer me service when you booked my date and time! Why would I be going this extra step online to show your ass is a bad business owner. Your business caused me nothing but stress and anxiety to contact you. Bc I didn't answer my phone at 6pm you gave my date away the next morning over one phone call, when we chatted for weeks!!! If your business was not private I would go as far as your company to discuss how unfair and unprofessional you are! Everyone can see now by your tacky lies and reply :) thirdly, you told me on the phone you were not busy all February and for me to get back to you to book!!!!! Lastly, it's "wasted" not "waisted" typo haha very clever, mocking me, clearly you are a bad person. What a great boss insulting your clientele on top of lying online, and dishonoring your word. People like you need to do better! read more

I definitely recommend Craft Brew Tours for anyone who wants to have an event. My group and I had a wonderful time at the breweries. We had a bachelorette event which was pretty fun! Mark was an awesome driver and contact person. We were able to hook up our Bluetooth to play music which was super fun. I would do this again in the future!!! read more

I celebrated my birthday with craft brew tours this weekend and it was such a fun experience! Mark was so accommodating and the bus was equipped with lights, music and coolers for drinks. Every single person in my group said they had a great time and I would 10/10 recommend this experience! read more

Would definitely recommend Craft Brew Tours! Mark is very responsive, accommodating, friendly and organized; we had a great time! Thank you, Mark! read more

Unfortunately, we did not have a positive experience with this company. I booked a basic package brewery tour for my birthday on the hottest day of the year. It was 117 outside and it felt like 100 degrees in the bus. We were sweating, uncomfortable for the entire ride, and it felt like the "AC" was blowing hot air at us. I contacted craft brew tour for a full or partial refund but was told that full or partial refunds cannot be given. For the price we pay, the bus really needs better AC. I understand that they are not in control of the weather, but the only thing we paid for (transportation) was terrible. It would have been better to just taxi around! The driver was nice, so I feel two stars is fair. I would not use this tour company again. read more

By far the best Brewery Tour in Orange County. The driver was super flexible and drove us to the best spots. The Bus fits 20 people comfortably and you have full control over the music via Bluetooth. Speaker system is on point. I did my research and this company was the best option by far. Best price, flexible with the hours etc. Thanks Mark, we had a blast. read more

I'm so happy that I booked Craft Brew Tours for my birthday. From the beginning Brandon (Tour host) made the planning so easy for a group of 20. Booked the tickets online, every guest was able to pay for their own which made it very easy to coordinate. The limo bus was awesome, nice, clean, equipped with lights, and dance pole (if that's your thing). Brewery selection, I went ahead with Brandon's recommendation Noble, Four Sons and Bottlelogic. All with great craft beers and environment. I will definitely recommend my friends to Craft Brew Tour. read more

We had a great time celebrating my husband's 40th birthday!! I was planning to go to San Diego and do the brewery tour there, but then I found Craft Brew tours. Brandon was wonderful from the start. I emailed him inquiring about his tour and he got back to me within minutes. He was very patient with all my questions. We picked the 5 hour, 3 brewery tour and had a blast. My husband wanted to try Barley Forge and I had Brandon recommend the other two (Noble Ale Works and Phantom Ales). All 3 were great! The bus was a blast!! A clean, party bus were we got to enjoy passing the time in between breweries. The party lights were festive and we got to choose our own music. Craft Brew Tours was a great pick and my husband and friends had a blast. We would definitely use this company again. Thank you Brandon! read more

Best. Birthday. Ever. I will try and keep this brief, but what an amazing experience. I worked with Mark on getting this arranged vita text, with quite a few changes leading up to the day of our tour (Saturday the 20th). Everything went seamlessly, and Mark helped in every way he could. We got picked up and did route 16 (green cheek, chapman brewery, and taps barrel room). All were fantastic and accommodating. The party bus WAS SO RAD. AC was blasting, it was clean, and the music was bumpin. Overall I would recommend this to everyone. All my friends that had gone let me know that night and the next day what an awesome time they had and they can't wait to do something like this again. Zero complaints, and 1000000 points for Mark being amazing. Thank you thank you thank you! read more

Craft Brew Tours is amazing!!! Mark was easy to communicate and work with, punctual, friendly, and a lot of fun to work with. Everyone at the breweries knows him well, so they are excited to see you when you come in. Some of the breweries we went even set aside tables for us for when we arrived, since our tour was on a Friday night and they can get busy! Everyone in our group had a great time. In my opinion this is also a great value!! I can't recommend this company and experience enough. We can't wait to come back and do it again.... And again and again!! read more

We had a group of 16, and this included low key and high maintenance customers. Our driver Brandon was great. We loved being able to drink and visit breweries without worrying about driving. No one felt rushed, and the variety of beer and food available was a crowd pleaser. It was an unforgettable birthday. We are considering an annual holiday beer bus. read more

Had this tour 2 years go for my birthday right before COVID shutdowns and all I can say is WE ARE STILL TALKING ABOUT IT! Had the best time ever. Drinking, hanging out with all my friend driving to different breweries. At one point we ran out of beer on the bus and we POSTMATED more beer. (I didn't know that was a thing) We had so much fun we are booking it again this Saturday! Same crew, same great time! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! great price, great employees. I cant wait! It's a great way to celebrate with your people and still be covid friendly and you can decorate the bus how you like.. just dont damage it.. I had a FRIENDS theme and we're doing a SCHITT$ CREEK theme for my sister. The max you can fit is 20 people but a little less is recommended for wiggle room. Make sure to bring cash for tip because they 100% deserve it! BOOK IT YALL!!! you wont regret it.. read more

Craft Brew Tours is GREAT! I have now done 2 so far and both times were so much fun! Brandon is beyond amazing... He is friendly, organized, detailed, accommodating, funny, informative and kept us on track the whole day so we were able to enjoy each brewery stop. Brandon was so knowledgeable on all the beers at each Brewery and had great recommendations which were very much appreciated. I can't say enough great things about Brandon and Craft Brew Tours and I recommend them to everyone including family and friends. I keep trying to think of another excuse to go on yet another Brew tour with Brandon.... Hopefully soon! Thank you Brandon!! read more

Mark took me and my brewerymates out for a solid night in the town last night. Super nice guy and followed all the rules given the current times were in and go us safe to each venue. If you're looking for a great time to have a solid taste of Anaheim breweries please let Mark show you around you will not be disappointed!! read more

I had a blast with a group of friends while touring a few local breweries with Craft Brew Tours! Mark (Owner) was extremely professional, courteous, informative and accommodating! He provided a super fun and care free vibe for our group! 10 out of 10 I will be taking another tour and give my HIGHEST praise! Go take a tour! CHEERS read more

We had a great time on our bus this past Saturday! It was alot of fun, got to check out new breweries, play games, and tried lots of beers! It was my first time on a beer brew tour and I would highly recommend to anyone looking to celebrate a birthday or bachelorette/bachelor party. Thanks!! read more

First off the bus is awesome! Our group used a different bus last year for another birthday and it in no way compares. We had a blast. The brewery's we tried were awesome! It was nice to get out of old town orange and try some new spots. Each stop we had reserved tables, which made it super easy to get in and get out in your 45 min. Food trucks were great along the way. I definitely recommend using craft brew tours ! read more

I booked a private tour with Craft Brew Tours for my fiance's surprise 30th birthday, and it was the most perfect outing! Mark was very communicative, accommodating, professional, and fun. The bus was modern, clean, and a great way to add a special touch to a day of celebrating. My fiance had the perfect afternoon, and we couldn't be happier. Would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a fun outing. read more

Did a small corporate outing recently. Everything was great. Brandon knew all of the breweries and had good suggestions on where to go based on location, types of beers we wanted to taste and air conditioning situation (super important in July). One of the best beers we had on the entire tour was the Ballast Point California Kolsch that Brandon provided gratis. Ice cold waters available on the bus. The AC was good, the bus was very clean and you could hook up your phone to play music on the bus. Would recommend to anybody for a brewery tour. read more

Booked an evening tour for my sister and her hubby's coed bachelor event. We went to three different breweries. It was really fun. Everyone had a great time. There was 17 of us . First stop was the bruery, second stop legends and last stop was barley forge. We stayed about an hour on each stop. Comfortable and cool bus. We would definitely do this again. read more

Booked a tour for my wife's 30th this past weekend. Everyone in the group had a blast! Brandon was always professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. Party bus is clean and upgraded with all the goodies. Went to Bootleggers, Bottle Logic, and Barley Forge (on Brandon's recommendation) - none of them disappointed. What really helped was that Brandon was always in communication in the weeks leading up to the event, updating the guest list and itinerary. Wouldn't hesitate to do it again and/or recommend it to someone else. Cheers! read more

Thank you Mark for an incredible evening! Our group had such an amazing time from start to finish. The next day everyone kept talking about how much fun they had! We couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thanks again for all of your help setting everything up. We look forward to booking another tour in the future! read more

You will not find a better tour company in Southern California. I have been on multiple brewery tours and this was by far the best. When I started to plan a surprise birthday in February I was nervous it would take a lot of effort and time. Brandon was exceptional. He went above and beyond to make sure that we were taken care of and I had no questions. He even emailed to check in and make sure I didn't need anything. Most companies don't reach out. They wait for you to contact them. I can not express how thankful I am that Brandon made sure to keep in good communication. I didn't have to worry about anything but that the guests arrived on time for the departure. The limo bus was great and we even got to start the tour with a cheers of an excellent beer. Brandon took us to Cismontane, The Good Beer Company and the Bruery. He even interacted and helped pick out beers when we needed recommendations. All the guests for the party mentioned multiple times how much they enjoyed the tour and how great the bus and Brandon was in general. Hands down the best your will find. Don't book with another company. I would definitely book again with Brandon and we are even thinking of trying some of the public tours. read more

We hosted a corporate event on the bus and it was awesome. Brandon was a gracious host. We started at Legends (great start place at 4 pm and included a tour/intro on how the brew process works), we then went to Noble and then Valiant. All great spots. Nobel had my favorite beer (Pina Colada beer) but was hot and crowded. There was a food truck at Noble and it was good, but they took forever. We were ready to go to the next stop, but were delayed for the food. Valiant was good and had BIG ASS FANS, so it was not as hot as Noble. I think Legends was my favorite! Plus the bartender gave us a tour! Overall, great event. Our partners loved it and it was unique! Brandon was easy to work with and keep us on schedule. read more

Decided to do something fun and unique for my birthday this year. I rented the Craft Brew Van and several friends and I took a brewery tour in San Diego. Was the best day ever!! Brandon was extremely helpful with choosing breweries and setting up a lunch reservation for us. We had the van or 7 hours. The inside of the van is beautiful!! The van was very accommodating. Kept our beverages cold, had ports to charge our phones and listen to our favorite play lists. Very reasonably priced. Truly was a memorable experience!! Can't wait to do it again!!! read more

My wife planned my 30th bday using Craft Brew Tours and I have nothing but great things to say. We did 3 breweries in OC. Brandon, the owner and driver, was very friendly and accommodating. The bus was cool and clean inside. We were able to play our own music and bring our own drinks on. When we got to each brewery, Brandon got our whole party set up pretty fast with the tastings. It was a great time and I highly recommend to everyone. read more

I planned a surprise brewery tour for my boyfriend's birthday and Craft Brew Tours did not disappoint. Brandon responded promptly in all our communications and went above and beyond. The bus was modern and clean and we loved that we got to play our own music. We all had a blast. We cannot wait to do this again!! read more

I booked a tour for my 4th annual 21st birthday and it was probably the greatest idea! Everyone, including myself, had the best time! Brandon made it very easy to plan and was more than helpful. He was very prompt at emailing back right from the start when you submit your information on the company website. As everyone signed up for the event, Brandon emailed you to keep you in the loop with who has signed up. A great way for you to harass your friends that tend to lag at these things. I wanted to make sure I spent my 5 hours wisely without much travel time in between breweries. Again, Brandon was there to help you plan what places would be best in each vicinity and what breweries would best serve the group's taste in beer. We decided to go to Bootleggers, Bottle Logic, and Four Sons. Each brewery was great and had a plethora of seatings (granted, our tour was early afternoon). We had a slight change in plans and didn't have enough time to go to our last brewery stop, Four Sons, but Brandon came to the rescue again and called Valiant to make sure that they had seating for our large group. I can't stress how easy it was to plan with this company and how much fun my group had! Great tour, great beer, great friends, but best of all great memories. Thank you again Brandon! read more

Such an amazing experience for my husbands birthday! Mark from Craft Brew Tours is incredible. Extremely helpful & polite. I definitely recommend them & I will definitely be coming back again! Thank you so much!! read more

We booked a private brew tour for our restaurant's bartender outing and holy smokes it was so great!! Mike was SO accommodating and flexible. He made extra stops for us and made sure we weren't rushed through each stop. HIGHLY RECOMMEND- bonus: it's the best party bus deal around for sure. read more

What can I say that has not already been said. Celebrated my birthday with 19 of my coolest friends and had a blast at the three breweries. We did Stereo, backstreet, and noble ale. Mark was punctual to pick us up at the orange circle and was kind to remind us when it was time to wrap it up and move on. He dropped us off at Chapman Brewery at the very end. I highly recommend this to everyone. It's a great way to celebrate any occasion, its fun and it was a breeze to coordinate with Mark. Thank you Mark for your patience and flexibility with my group. We all had a blast and my friend visiting from Texas was truly impressed. read more

I had an absolute blast! I booked this tour for my company outing and from start to finish, it was simply an amazing experience! Brandon is absolutely wonderful and very knowledgable about the craft breweries in the area. His suggestions were on par and we found places that had great atmosphere and excellent beer. I cannot thank him enough for his suggestion of BSB (a new brewery, I highly recommend it!) as it was best place to end our tour. Booking is easy, you fill out the form on their website and you'll be contacted shortly. I was contacted within 30mins-- wow!!! Once you reserve the time, and pick the breweries of your choice, and your pickup location, you can book your spot on the tour on their website in order to guarantee the booking. I love this feature as you only have to worry about yourself and you will not need to worry about collecting money, etc... You will receive periodic update emails on who booked their spots on your private tour, which is really handy with keeping track of attendance and ensures that everyone there paid. Overall, the whole process was fun and painless. I would do this tour again in a heartbeat!! read more

My review for San Diego Brew Tour: From start to finish this was by far the best experience! I love that I had my own link to send to my party to pay in advance and I didn't have to worry about collecting the cash from everyone. We hit 3 breweries with 1 hour at each stop and never felt rushed by Brandon. The party bus itself was awesome! Built in coolers, cup holders, nice leather seats, full on disco dance lights, music, and AC. If you love beer and are looking to have a good time for any occasion I would definitely recommend OC Brew Tour! We are already planning our next trip! Oh and a side note about Brandon the owner, he was so nice and very communicative. We left a bag of goods we have purchased at Stone, instead of asking me to pick it up...he was so kind to personally deliver it my house the next night! Can't get better service than that! read more

Mark is great! We rented the bus for a birthday party to Temecula and it was a fantastic result. Sound in the bus was great and lights are pretty cool. read more

Looooooooved everything about this tour! Two coolers in the car, enough room, and great service! Our driver was amazing and super nice! The breweries we went to we're clean and nice. Food was only provided at the first brewery- bomb! the last two breweries were just as legit. Not too crowded, good beer samples, and clean bathrooms! totally worth every penny! read more

Reserved a private tour for my husband's 30th birthday... It was hassle-free! :) I compared other beer tour companies in the LA/OC area and Craft Brew Tours really stood out to me as being the most affordable, most responsive and most customer-oriented among its competitors. Brandon was a safe and courteous guide for our group and he seemed to have a great relationship with the breweries we visited. The bus was clean and comfortable. I also appreciated how well-planned the stops were.... the timing was great! I highly recommend Craft Brew Tours if you want a more personalized and laid-back craft brew tasting experience! I got great feedback from our group of 14 people. Would LOVE to book a tour with them again! Thanks Brandon! read more
