  1. Customers

Children must be accompanied by an adult. It is illegal for anyone under the age of 18 years to purchase alcoholic beverages in the UK therefore customers under the age of 18 will not be allowed to participate in the tasting. You may be required to supply proof of age on request and we shall not sell or deliver alcohol to anyone who is, or appears to be, under the age of 18. You must be over 18 years of age and capable of entering into a contract and by placing an order you confirm this.

 

  1. Representation of Offer

Please note tour routes and tasting products may vary. Belhaven Brewery reserves the right to withdraw from sale either of tours or tour gift vouchers or correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions, and to change or update information or cancel orders if any information on the website is inaccurate at any time without notice (including after you have submitted your order).

 

  1. Orders

Tour bookings will be processed during the hours of 9.00am to 5.00pm Monday to Friday. Any orders received during the weekend or on public holidays will be processed on the next working day. Periods of high demand may result in delays to the processing of orders.

Despite our best efforts to maintain fully accurate tour availability records, it may sometimes happen that we are unable to fulfil a tour booking. In this case, we will contact affected customers directly to make alternative arrangements.

You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases made. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address and credit card numbers and expiration dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.

 

  1. Payment

Full Payment must be made prior to confirmation of the tour booking or the delivery of the tour gift vouchers, by credit or debit card (we accept all major debit/credit cards, but unfortunately we cannot accept Diners Club or American Express). In the event of non-authorisation of payment by your card issuer we will contact you by telephone or email. We cannot accept liability for any losses or costs incurred or sustained by customers who transmit credit or debit card information (please see our privacy notice here).

All prices are shown in Pounds Sterling (£) and are inclusive of VAT (where applicable) at the current rates and are correct at the time of entering the information onto the system.

The total cost of your order is the price of the tour booked or the value of the tour gift card.

You confirm that the credit/debit card being used for any transaction is yours.

All credit/debit cardholders are subject to validation checks and authorisation by the card issuer. If the issuer of your payment card refuses to, or does not, for any reason, authorise payment to us, we will not be liable for any delay or non-delivery.

We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time.

  1. Tour Gift Vouchers

Tour gift vouchers can only be used to pay for a brewery tour purchased from our website. Tour gift vouchers cannot be used to pay for a brewery tour purchased in store at the brewery.

Belhaven Brewery reserves the right to refuse to accept a gift voucher or to limit the use of a gift voucher which it deems to have been tampered with, duplicated, damaged or which otherwise is suspected to be affected by fraud, misconduct or unauthorised use. Belhaven Brewery may withdraw or cancel your gift voucher or take any other action it may deem appropriate if it suspects fraud, misconduct or unauthorised use of your gift voucher. The gift voucher shall become invalid once cancelled and you will not be able to redeem the balance on your gift voucher.

Belhaven Brewery’s liability to you in relation to these terms shall under no circumstances exceed the final balance held on your gift voucher. These terms set out Belhaven Brewery’s entire liability to remedy any defect or default in the gift voucher.
