Breweries and Vineyards

Step behind the scenes and discover how your favourite English tipples are created with a visit to a brewery, vineyard or even a gin distillery as part of your Great West Way adventure.

Beer has been brewed in this area of England for thousands of years. Many delicious craft beers, IPAs and real ales are still produced right here on the Great West Way. From tiny microbreweries with their own taprooms to Great West Way institutions like Wadworth Brewery and West Berkshire Brewery, there are lots of opportunities to try our local beers. At Wadworth Brewery Visitor Centre you can sample the delights and learn about the traditional brewing methods used at the site since 1875. Bristol is also one of the UK’s leading craft beer destinations and is brimming with brilliant breweries. Head to a local brewery to sample the delights of real, local English beers and learn about the history of this ubiquitous English drink.

Did you know that England is now also home to hundreds of small local vineyards? The chalk soils and temperate climate of the south of England are perfect for creating crisp, white, bubbly wines. Take a vineyard tour or attend a wine sampling session and you'll see for yourself why English wines are winning prestigious international awards. Discover our local wine with a tour and tasting at Alder Ridge Vineyard, nestled into the chalky slopes of the North Wessex Downs between Hungerford and Marlborough. A'Beckett's Vineyard near Devzies offer wine tastings and walks around their impressive 20 acre site.
