Excellent indoor activity in Malta. You can see the original machinery, old photos, ads, logos and bottles revealing the history of a famous local brewery that exceeded the borders of its country and is still in business. At the end of the tour, you can enjoy a pint among a good selection of different types of Farsons beer that is included in the ticket price and maybe have something to eat enjoying the panoramic view from the top floor. Highly recommended.

Cisk Brewery was a great experience. The beers were really good, and the whole story of the brewery's creation and the families who created it was very interesting. The food was also very good, and they also take intolerances and allergies intolerances intolerant. Thank you so much 🍻🍻🍻

Nice place to learn about Malta’s history and get away from the heat. Unfortunately, it’s a museum tour and not to the real brewery itself.
Small bier tasting is included in the ticket price and quite nice.
A mini brewery is located at the onsite restaurant with special beers.

Thank you for sharing your feedback! We understand your disappointment that the tour doesn’t take you through a working brewery – since The Brewhouse is the former Farsons Brewery, production no longer takes place here. However, we hope you still enjoyed seeing the original brewing equipment and the walkthrough of how our beers were once produced. We’re glad to hear you liked the tasting and the microbrewery at The Chapels. 12 months ago

"The Farsons Brewery & Gastro Experience"
I booked the extended tour with food. A guide leads you through the exhibition (normally self-guided with an audio guide). Ian, the guide that evening, enthusiastically shared the history of the company with me. It was nice to experience his passion for the subject.
After the tour, you are taken to the bar on the 5th floor (Cisk Tap - you can also visit without a tour). The roof terrace offers a wonderful view!
The tasting began with five small glasses of lager, pilsner, and three ale. There were supposed to be food pairings to accompany the beer. However, the food was served much later, and there was a very long wait. In general, we were not very well looked after during this part of the tour (this part of the tour is then handled by the bar waiters, not the guide). Everything took a very long time, was chaotic, and there was hardly any information. Even to get the souvenir glass, you had to ask several times. The experience in the bar spoiled the overall impression considerably.

Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback with us. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the guided tour and Ian’s way of sharing our story.We’re very sorry that your experience during the tasting did not meet expectations. The delays and lack of communication you describe are not typical and certainly not what we aim to provide, and we regret that this affected your overall experience. We’ve shared your comments with our team at The Cisk Tap so we can make future visits smoother and more enjoyable for all our guests.12 months ago

A really cool place, the actual museum visit lasts around 45 mins to 1 hour, then you can sample the delights in the roof top bar (5 x 100ml tasters are included in entrance fee). We then had lunch in Kettles Bar, which was great too. Lovely way to be out holiday in Malta. PS the building it stunning too.

A very nice experience, from the history class to the beautiful building itself, and the guide was very friendly and entertaining. If you take the gastronomic tour, you can try beers, and they'll serve you a pint of the one you like best. In addition to the meal, they serve you several tapas made with recipes that include beer, which was very good. The tour ends on the terrace where you can watch the sunset—a beautiful experience!

We had a really good evening at Farsons, starting from an informative tour from Zit (?) and finishing with incredible food with a view at the Cisk tap. We really loved the food at the end it was super tasty! Booking through Get your guide was very easy. The staff was very friendly and wanted us to have the best experience throughout.
