My sister and I booked a tour of the brewery as a part of our holiday, and we had a wonderful time. Our guide, the lovely Thibeaut (I hope that's spelt correctly!), was knowledgeable, friendly and informative, and we had a wonderful time walking through the different areas and learning about the brewing process, the differences between the different styles of ales and lagers, and learning about how Emersons started out as a brewery - and the tasting flight of beers after the tour with a couple of snacky plates by the fireplace was the perfect way to round off the evening. Would 100% recommend the tour to anyone interested in beer, Emersons or who wants to learn something new. Bonus points if you also get Thibeaut as a guide - he made an already great tour even better!
Great Tour with some great tasting beers at the end of it. Fantastic atmosphere and location
Came through with a group of us, Aiden’s knowledge was impressive and what a super host/tour guide. Would definitely recommend all of us thoroughly enjoyed the whole tour (and the tasters at the end) Top notch (thanks a bunch Aiden)
The tour lasts for around 40min, where you can see the behind-the-scenes, understand the process, the history and even taste the malt. The atmosphere is quite nice, chill and clean. You get a 6 beers tasting paddle after the tour which is totally worth it Set aside at least an hour to stay at the restaurant after the tour.

Très généreuse dégustation, visite de qualité.
SMS en français pour changer d'horaire si cela nous convenait. Parking devant l'établissement. Accueil vraiment personnalisé très très chaleureux. Belle visite du site, des installations et une personne dédié à mon compagnon en fauteuil car il ne pouvait nous suivre à l'étage. Une dégustation incroyable vraiment très généreuse dans un espace superbe, joyeux ou il est facile de discuter avec ses voisins. Bières fameuses. Des possibilités de restauration ou de grignotage . Une superbe expérience!
