    Good food is always a great accompaniment to good beer and there's definitely no shortage of tasty eats in Europe. Add in friendly local brew lovers and you've got a winning combination!

  • Experiencing New Cultures

    With such a rich history, not just in terms of beer and brewing, there's a story attached to every European stop along the Ultimate Beer Tour.

  • A Family Affair

    Parents rejoice! According to Craig, "As a father of three who likes to responsibly enjoy a good beer now and then, I enjoy being able to take my kids into a pub in Europe. It’s part of the culture."

  • Visiting Major European Landmarks

    Not only will you get to visit all the must-see European landmarks, you'll also be drinking amazing brews along the way. It really is the best of both worlds!

  • All Those Interesting Travel Stories

    From trying to visit every brewery in Bamberg in one night, to sharing sobering moments at war memorial sites, Craig has numerous stories to share. That is the beauty of traveling after all!
