Flying Dog Brewery tours return starting July 1.
Tours will be offered every Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. Each intimate session will include a history of Flying Dog, an in-depth tour of the brewery — including the brew house, cellar, quality assurance lab, and packaging areas — as well as samplings and sensory explorations of some of the 18 draft beers available at any given time.
We haven't offered public tours since December 2009, when we placed a self-imposed hiatus to focus on updating Maryland beer sampling laws. Drafting legislation and forming a coalition of other Maryland breweries, retailers and wholesalers, we embraced our Gonzo spirit and took an active role to update some outdated laws to better reflect the climate of craft beer in the state.
Those updates unanimously passed and were signed by the Governor to go into effect July 1.
The revisions allow consumers to sample a broader range of beer styles and enable them to purchase beer “to go” after a tour. You can now purchase up to 288 ounces of beer (equivalent to four 6-packs) to be consumed off premise.
Tours are $5 and include a commemorative tasting glass. Our gift shop will also be open with a full range of Flying Dog merchandise available for purchase.
