A great way to work out your favourites and get 6 included in the price. - We were interested in the bundaberg ginger beer and didn't realise that they made so many others. The tasting session is just that, tasting. You get a small cup with a mouthful or two to taste. There are 16 varieties that they go through and we found this an excellent way to try all the varieties without filling up on any one. Once you have tasted all the varieties you have a 6 bottle holder and fill with your favourites from the 13 bottled varieties you have tried (the canned ones aren't included). The tasting is $20 and a 6 pack is $15, so the opportunity to taste every variety before purchase is actually $5 which we thought was an excellent offer.

Great taste, good company. - We took our family 9 + 5 to the Bundaberg Brewed Drinks Distillery and had such a great time. The kids loved trying all 16 flavours (Pineapple Coconut and Creaming Soda were their favourites) and of course we had to grab some Ginger Beer to take home. The tasting was fun, the staff were friendly, and there’s something for everyone no matter what flavours you like. A bit sweet but so refreshing. Great spot for families and definitely worth a visit.

Good Place for Families - This is a perfect place to visit with families to see the vast variety of ginger beer that is produced in Bundaberg. The venue is airy and has a very good variety of ginger beer for tasting and for sale. You can buy slabs of 24 for good prices if you wish, or buy just one cold one from the fridge. You can pay to do the tour or just browse and enjoy.

Nice tasting, but the lemonade is a matter of taste - It's quite nicely done. The museum is lovingly designed and the tasting is actually through all varieties. There are 6 bottles of lemonade free of charge for admission, the varieties can be chosen. We gave away our 6-packs because we simply don’t like the lemonade with the added aroma and the high proportion of sugar.

Why do expensive ?? - Do your self a favour and just go the supermarket to buy these products. Or visit if you like but don’t waste your $20 adult and $7 kids on a tasting where you don’t even end up the one full drink! Most places would offer a free tasting to promote their products. Very disappointed for how expensive it was :(
