Melbourne is one of the world’s greatest cities. This tour takes you to the heart of the world’s most livable city to enjoy its vibrant beer culture. Brewing and beer is just as important to the fabric of Melbourne as footy and live music. Due to the sheer number of breweries that could be found in Melbourne in the 19th century, the city quickly became known as Australia’s beer capital. So great was Melbourne’s love for beer that the city’s first elected mayor was even a brewer. While only a few of the historical breweries remain, the number of small breweries that have sprung up over the last decade has once again made Melbourne a city dedicated to beer. This has even lead to some calling Melbourne one of the top destinations in the world for beer lovers, proving that Melbourne is not only Australia’s beer capital, but also one of the world’s.
