Your guide will welcome you in the Visitor Centre, where you will set off for the 90 minute tour. Your Wadworth journey begins with an introduction to the brewery, followed by a steep climb to the top of the Victorian tower. You will then follow the gravitational brewing process down through the levels of the brewery, viewing the Mash Tuns, Hop Back & original open Copper on your way through. En route you will see a contrast of old and new, with the next stop being the 21st century Copper House to see how technology has developed. Wadworth host a range of traditional skills on site, which include a visit to the Cooperage where you will see where the wooden casks are handcrafted*, followed by a short stroll to the Award winning Shire Horses* & stables (providing they are not on their annual holiday). Take a look around the Sign Writing Studio where all the signs for their 250 pubs are hand painted in the traditional way. Once you have experienced the science and skill that go into the making of the beers (and have worked up a thirst!), you are invited to the Mezzanine Bar for a tutored beer tasting session. Here you will enjoy a range of Wadworth cask ales, where you can have a Q&A session with your guide. Before going home with your choice of six handcrafted beers from a range and a Wadworth branded bag, there is the opportunity to browse through the items in the Brewery Shop.
