England Trip with BrewDog
I just returned from the England trip and it was amazing!! Captain Kurt takes care of all the details so there is nothing to worry about. I was on my annual girls trip but felt so safe traveling with this group. I can’t wait to go on the other trips!!! Great memories and worth every penny.
My brother and I had such a great time on the trip with all of the other “beer trippers.” Kurt was a great host/guide for the entire trip. He made sure we had everything we needed, but most importantly that we had a great time doing it. This trip allows you to visit many different cities and experience different locations on a daily basis, all while trying some of the best beer Manchester and the surrounding areas have to offer. There is ample free time to do any exploring you want to on your own. If you love beer and travel, this trip is perfect for you.
If you love drinking craft beer and hanging out with other people who love to talk about and drink beer then this is the trip for you. What is listed on the trip itinerary is the bare minimum of what you will get to experience on the trip. You will get to visit the best craft breweries in the area, drink exceptional beer, and have a blast while doing it. I got to try some beers that I didn’t think I would ever get to try and beers that were limited release and we will probably never see them again. Kurt does an excellent job of including additional stuff to the trip to make the experience memorable. If you love craft beer and want to take a trip for your vacation, make it an Epic Beer Trip.
Clink the glasses, sip the delicious beers and explore the cities and history, all while making beautiful memories and laughing till it hurts. I had the opportunity to go to Manchester UK among other cities and take way too many photos, but more so gained good friends and a lifetime of cheers!!! Epic Beer Trip holds up to the name to do something in you life that will last a lifetime. Thank you Captain Kurt & fellow beer trippers for making it an awesome experience!
Always a ton of fun! If you leave beer-thirsty it’s your own fault. Great mix of planned activities with exploring the sights on your own. Recommend these trips to everyone I know!
Epic Beer Trips lives up to the name and idea of traveling, drinking beer, and having fun. Captain Kurt lined up some great beery activities that were much more than your average brewery tasting. Getting to and from activities was handled well, and there was free time to explore as well. There was never a shortage of beer to be had, that’s for sure!
Captain Kurt and the Beer Trippers were great fun to host and we can’t wait to have the group return next year! The trips are really well organised and everyone had a blast visiting different cities and breweries across the North. See you again soon!
Heart of Scotland Trip
Kurt is an epic guy and an epic beer trip Captain! I had the best time exploring Edinburgh, and other spots throughout Scotland, learning about (and of course tasting!) the best beer around. Kurt was very thoughtful in providing a great balance of scheduled beer tasting and activities with some solo time to do some things on your own. He really thought of everything and had all the details taken care of, so all you really have to do is show up with your Vans (or your favorite pair of comfy shoes!), have some beer, and have a good time. It’s such a small thing, but I really loved how he provided already stamped postcards, along with a few other goodies, upon our arrival. It’s the little things! If you’re looking for a laid-back trip where you can try some tasty beers (along with some good knowledge directly from brewers on how they are actually made!), then look no further than Epic Beer Trips!
With Epic Beer Trips, led by the one and only Captain Kurt, everything was taken care of allowing me to sit back and enjoy the incredible journey. From eating meat pies from a local hidden gem to drinking loads of local Scottish beer, there is something for everyone to enjoy, including plenty of free time to explore as you wish! This was an experience I will never forget.
I had an amazing time on my recent Epic Beer Trip to Scotland. Captain Kurt and his dedicated team of “Beer Trippers”, put together a fantastic trip. The accommodations at the BrewDog Hotel were over the top cool and the perfect base of operations. The planned excursions & activities were a wonderful mix of the historical sites of Edinburgh, Glasgow & St. Andrews, along with amazing opportunities to engage with local Scots and even a living Scottish Rock & Roll legend from Nazareth! To sum it up in one word…EPIC!
The Heart of Scotland trip was incredible!! Having Epic Beer Trips prepare details of what to expect regarding international travel made planning stress-free. Their agenda covered all the bases of “must-see” plus activities we didn’t even know existed but loved!
The private beer events were impressive and we wouldn’t have been able to experience those on our own. It was a nice balance of planned activities plus time to explore. The small group was a wide variety of folks with common interests – travel and beer!
Our stay at the Doghouse hotel was AWESOME. It made for a fully immersive beer trip and were very comfortable accommodations. Definitely a good value and would recommend!!
Just go back from the Heart of Scotland trip by EpicBeerTrips.com. Fantastic trip combining sight-seeing, cultural enlightenment, and Epic opportunities to taste and learn about local Scottish craft beers and beer history in general. Captain Kurt and the EpicBeerTrips.com team had all the bases covered and mixed in some unadvertised surprise experiences that made the trip extra special, epic even. I highly recommend.
The Heart of Scotland Epic Beer Trip was epic indeed! The BrewDog Doghouse Hotel is the perfect home base for beer lovers and Captain Kurt did an awesome job planning daily excursions that combined craft beer with sightseeing. From beer school at BrewDog, fish and chips with locals in St. Andrews, and multiple private meet the brewer sessions, it is impossible to pick a favorite day of the trip. I would recommend an Epic Beer Trip to every craft beer lover!
This trip was even more amazing than what I had expected. Every day was different but equally as fun. And it was the right amount of scheduled and free time. Thank you so much Captain Kurt!! You were awesome. And thank you to our fellow beer trippers. Meeting you all was amazing! I feel like we were a great mix.
I had so much fun on the Epic Beer Trip to Scotland! There was a great variety of tours, beer tastings and free time to explore Edinburgh. I would highly recommend this trip to any beer lovers/travel enthusiasts!
We have developed a great partnership with Captain Kurt and his Beer Trippers as they now prepare for their 3rd annual trip to DogHouse Edinburgh! The group are always such fun to host and we love to share our beery love and Scottish hospitality in the setting of our beer themed hotel! We look forward to the next visit!
We had a blast tasting our way around Scotland with the Epic Beer Trip! I wasn’t sure what to expect from the group, but we loved getting to know the other Beer Trippers over amazing craft beers. Captain Kurt set up some amazing activities with local breweries and shops, plus a lawn bowling tutorial with some helpful Scots. He also gave lots of suggestions of other places to visit that I never could have found on my own, but gave us a good balance of free time to explore or relax at the DogHouse Hotel.
Dublin Down! Ireland Trip
Epic Beer Trips is the perfect name for this! Kurt does an amazing job of finding the balance between planned activities and free time. It’s so nice to have a daily activity where all you have to do is show up at the right time because Kurt handles all the transportation and tickets. Every brewery we visited was delightful and owners/brewers were wonderful. It’s a low stress way to get to explore another country. I recommend Epic Beer Trips to everyone who will listen. I can’t wait to go on my next trip with Kurt to England!
Our trip to Ireland with Kurt was amazing. The accommodations were in great locations. The attractions were within walking distance. It was a great mix of planned activities coupled with just enough free time to enjoy individual activities. Loved the “Russ Bus” transportation! I would highly recommend the trip to others.
Our Partners
We have developed a great partnership with Captain Kurt and his Beer Trippers as they now prepare for their 3rd annual trip to DogHouse Edinburgh! The group are always such fun to host and we love to share our beery love and Scottish hospitality in the setting of our beer themed hotel! We look forward to the next visit!
It was a pleasure to host a lovely group of people at The BrewDog Outpost in Manchester talking all things beer and brewing. The trip was clearly well planned and thought out by Captain Kurt. Hopefully I’ll catch some more Epic Beer Trippers next year!
We’ve been very privileged to host Kurt and his Beer Trippers on the Epic Beer Trip to Scotland over the last few years. For me it’s great to meet people with such different backgrounds and beer heritages. Campervan is a highly-regarded microbrewery that sells predominantly in Scotland, so there are few chances for people outside of the UK to enjoy the beers. Epic Beer Trip offers a unique opportunity for visitors and hopefully we give an insight into the brewing traditions of Scotland, with a view to the thriving modern beer culture we enjoy here now.
We really enjoy working with Captain Kurt and Epic Beer Trips. He brings great groups to the brewery, full of interesting people, and they fit really well with what we’re doing at Ballykilcavan.
Captain Kurt and the Beer Trippers were great fun to host and we can’t wait to have the group return next year! The trips are really well organised and everyone had a blast visiting different cities and breweries across the North. See you again soon!
