Went on a guided tour of the brewery (not an extensive walk), but found it to be very informative and enjoyable. The guides who met us when we first arrived were very knowledgable, as well as warm & welcoming. They are obviously very proud of being a part of Troeg's, and it shows. We were allowed to taste several beers, and then enjoy a single beer of our choosing. During the tour, they had samples of malted barley & hops for people to handle, smell & taste. We also sampled a freshly fermented beer that was going to move to aging, as well as a triple belgian at the end of the tour. The guide encouraged questions, and I think everyone in the tour found it interesting & enjoyable. Nothing but positive comments. We also stopped in the beer hall/gastro pub that they have set up in the brewery. Had a few more beers, as well as flatbread pizza dish. The beer was very good, but the flatbread pizza was nothing special at all. Bottom was actually a bit burnt, and it lacked flavor. But overall, we enjoyed our visit to Troeg's, and will likely be back again, particularly if we have visitors from out of the area.
