Axe The Capital
Canberra raiding with axes & ales. Throw axes, sample award-winning beers, eat a proper pub lunch — all in one afternoon.
What this tour actually is
Canberra raiding with axes & ales
Throw an axe. Sample an award-winning beer. Eat a proper pub lunch. Repeat the axe part one more time for the leaderboard. That’s the day.
We take care of all the details so you just need to bring your thirst — for drinks, food and knowledge (and maybe a bit of healthy competition). We keep the group to ten max, so you’ll get plenty of throws and plenty of behind-the-scenes time at the breweries.
Who books this
Bucks, hens, corporate off-sites, milestone birthdays, and groups of mates who’ve decided the standard brewery tour wasn’t quite enough. Bookable any day subject to availability — let us know your preferred date and we’ll lock it in.

FAQ
Do I need axe throwing experience?
None at all. The AXXE team are professionals and they'll have you confidently throwing within ten minutes.
Is this safe?
Yes — AXXE is a fully licensed urban axe throwing venue with proper instruction, gear and supervision. We've never had an incident.
Can we book this for a bucks/hens/team day?
Yes — this tour is built for groups. If you've got more than ten people, ask about a private charter and we'll run it on a date that suits.
Going for a longer trip?
Most guests pair a half-day with a full-day. Mid-week and Sunday tours are quieter and just as good.
