Glasgow: Pub History Tour with Beer & Cider Tasting

About this experience

This walking tour explores Glasgow's New Town through the story of William Harley and the city's brewing history. Setting off from Blythswood Square, you follow how Harley rose from a young labourer to make and lose a fortune, a tale taking in royal visitors, corporate espionage and civic duty, which set Glasgow on course to become the world's largest exporter of bottled beer. The experience ends with a tutored tasting of Scottish award-winning craft beers.</description_md>
