I cannot say enough nice things about our BrewBoat experience.
From start to finish, everything about this was easy and fun.
I had a discount code, but even at full price this is a great value. Booking online was really easy and the website clearly spells out all the rules. Directions to the marina were clear and we found parking immediately.
We were greeted as soon as the previous trip docked. They cleaned up the boat pretty quickly and soon enough we were loading our drinks into the provided coolers! There was a ton of space for all 14 of us plus our things. They thought of everything- magnetic beer openers on the bar, wine bottle opener, Bluetooth speakers for your device, Sirius radio if you don't bring a device, cool new LED lights. The seats were comfortable and they came around to adjust when needed. They made sure trash was disposed of properly and even wiped up the bar area throughout our trip.
There are cup holders at each of the 10 seats and we also got to keep the little yellow cup they provided. We were all way too excited about the cup.
Everyone asks, so I'll be honest.... This is not labor intensive. I've done pedal taverns before and they are HARD work. The Brew Boat is way more casual and easy to do. There were times that perhaps not one of us was pedaling. We were standing and dancing, so don't worry if you are lazy
The route up the river was wonderful. It was so exciting to see our beautiful, revitalized flats district from a different vantage point. It wasn't crowded on the river but we felt like celebrities with all the people on the shore pointing and waving.
Our captain was great and owner/ operator Freddy is awesome. He was so accommodating and friendly and even let my sis decorate for my birthday.
I highly recommend this! They book fast, so take advantage and don't miss it!
