Beer Tasting Session in Edinburgh’s Underground Vaults | 1 hour

4.Beer Tasting Session in Edinburgh’s Underground Vaults | 1 hour

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 66 reviews · 1 hour (approx.) · from $31Best value

Taste four local Scottish beers in Edinburgh’s atmospheric Lost Close, with beer lessons and old-town history in a relaxed one-hour session.

“Overall an alright experience, got to test out and be given some background information on local breweries. This was the first formal beer tasting that I’ve done and felt that it perhaps could have been slightly more dynamic. However, part of that may have been because it was simply myself and one other solo traveller. The session in total lasted about 45 minutes, which perhaps seemed somewhat short.”

Explore Edinburgh’s Harry Potter sights, Greyfriars Kirkyard, Victoria Street, and five Scottish beers on one lively five-hour tour.

My Potterhead self thoroughly enjoyed this tour for the Harry Potter/JK Rowling sites alone, but we also learned about Edinburgh in general, which was a nice touch. As for the beer tasting, we sampled five beers in the Lost Close, which has its own cool history. It was a nice add on.”
