This tour includes transport to visit the home of Cisk beer to discover the rich storey behind Malta`s favourite beers including lagers and ales, at the Farsons Brewery in Birkirkara.
Take a journey from grain to bottle with an hour-long self-exploratory tour behind the brand showing you the storey behind it - a storey of three entrepreneurial families who joined forces to become the Islands' leading brewers.
It’s hard to imagine life in our hot climate without a cooling brew ready at hand. But beer was not always the drink of choice. Discover how the arrival of the British Armed forces ingrained a trend that tipped the balance of Malta's drinking habits forever.
The 1950 Farsons Brewery itself is a true feat of engineering and architecture, designed with a single objective in mind – to brew the world’s finest beer, in the most efficient way possible.
Learn how decades of innovation, consistency and brand loyalty cemented Farsons' award-winning beers as essential elements of the Maltese identity.
Throughout the brewhouse, you will discover original industrial machinery, pristinely restored and still in situ, such as the magnificent copper kettles that have brewed millions of litres of brews for over 60 years. The mix of vintage and contemporary within this building is unlike anything else in Malta, while the combination of graphics, audiovisual and much more make this experience unique and well worth visiting.
Finish your tour sampling Farsons beers at the very first Cisk-themed bar offering panoramic views of Malta from its rooftop terrace. The tour includes a pint of lager or a tasting tray to sample several of Farsons beer brands. After the tour, shop for souvenirs at the Farsons Brandstore.
