Tour Highlights
What to Expect on Your Day Trip
After being picked up from one of our convenient central locations, we set off to visit a handpicked selection of coastal breweries — from hidden gems to popular taprooms with strong local followings. Along the way, you’ll enjoy guided tastings showcasing a wide range of beer styles, from hop-forward pale ales and tropical IPAs to rich stouts, creative seasonals, and the occasional sour.
One of the highlights of the day is an exclusive behind-the-scenes brewery tour, where you’ll learn firsthand how craft beer is brewed, straight from the source. A delicious lunch is included at one of the brewery stops, featuring classic brewery-style fare, with vegetarian and gluten-free options available.

Coastal Hop Brewery Tour Reviews
I can’t recommend Creative Tours highly enough! From start to finish, the experience was seamless, professional, and unforgettable. Our guide was knowledgeable and genuinely passionate about her local area. Everything was well-organised and such a fun day out.
Looking forward to booking more tours in the future and will be recommending to all my friends!

Today’s tour was excellent. The tour guide is very professional and ensured everyone was looked after. The venues that we visited were all quality establishments. I would not hesitate to recommend Creative Tours when visiting the Sunshine Coast.

As the ‘Birthday Girl’ I had the most wonderful day with my favourite girlfriends. Josh was so accomodating to us all day and the venues were brilliant! I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a lovely, relaxing and fun day out at the sunny coast. If you enjoy nice food and fabulous drinks you will have an amazing day.
