THE STORY BEHIND THE STORY<\/strong><\/h5>\n

An entrepreneurial spirit and a love of great beer are what led Chad Brodsky to found City Brew Tours all the way back in 2008.\u00a0 From humble beginnings in Burlington Vermont to becoming North America\u2019s leading craft beer tour experience – City Brew Tours is far more than a \u201cbeer bus\u201d – it\u2019s an experiential trip through a city\u2019s craft beer scene!\u00a0 The City Brew Tours Experience focuses on education, entertainment, and ambassadorship to help bring incredible beer-focused experiences to cities all over the country!<\/span><\/p>\n

Chad first came up with the idea upon returning from Vienna Austria with a newfound love for high quality beer.\u00a0 After enrolling in \u201cBeer Making 101\u201d in college he quickly found that brewing beer was a lot harder than enjoying it!\u00a0 After purchasing an old church van Chad launched \u2018Burlington Brew Tours\u2019 and it quickly became a must-see experience in Burlington, coinciding perfectly with Burlington being labeled as the fourth best beer city on earth.\u00a0 Many years and expansions later the brand eventually became \u2018City Brew Tours\u2019 and quickly spread down the east coast rapidly, and even to the west coast, midwest, and Canada!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0 \u00a0\"Chat \u00a0\u00a0\"Chad<\/p>\n

Building upon years of success, Chad has teamed up with Mike and Davin to bring City Brew Tours award-winning experiences to Raleigh!\u00a0 The City of Oaks is filled with plenty of incredible breweries just waiting to be toured, and we can\u2019t wait for you to try all the delicious beer they have to offer!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Mike and Davin met off chance through a mutual friend while attending college together at UMBC in 2010. They then lived together for 3 years and have been best friends ever since! Living so close to the city of Baltimore massively exposed these guys to Maryland’s constantly growing craft beer community.<\/p>\n

For Davin it was love at first pint with Loose Cannon IPA by Heavy Seas Brewing Company; a local brewery from his hometown of Baltimore, MD. In 2014, Davin moved down to North Carolina and began to appreciate the craft beer scene even more with a wide variety of breweries and tasty beers to choose from. His new favorite beer became and still is Road Hazard Hazy IPA from Crank Arm Brewing Company located in Raleigh, NC. Davin became even more appreciative of craft beer through his work as a Manager for Bad Daddy’s Burger Bar, a local burger joint featuring North Carolina’s Best Brews.\u00a0 Fast forward 7 years, a few home brewing lessons from Mike, some Cicerone training, and a love for good beer (especially IPAs), Davin hopes to share his knowledge of the brewing process with the city of Oaks!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Mike encountered his first craft beer while working at a restaurant in Baltimore’s downtown inner-harbor – a beer known then as ‘Clipper City Pale Ale’.\u00a0 This first foray into craft beer began a 10 year long journey into home-brewing beer and, ultimately, a 3 year tenure as a beer tour guide for City Brew Tours of Baltimore MD!\u00a0 After relocating to Raleigh NC with his wife and dogs in 2020 Mike set out on a mission to bring his love of craft-beer and brewing to his new home-city.\u00a0 Through launching the City Brew Tours Raleigh Franchise in 2021, Mike hope’s to bring unforgettable craft-beer experiences to as many of his fellow Raleigh beer drinkers as possible!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
