And from 11:30-3:30 Monday to Friday, find a local food truck serving more lunch options out front."

Say Cheers to Vancouver's Top 10 Breweries
"Brassneck Brewery (2148 Main Street) offers great sample paddles and has knowledgeable staff — the small-scale brewery wants to keep things simple by just offering growlers to go, kegs and tastings on site at the Growler Room & Tasting Room. You won’t find any cans or bottles here. But you will find some ‘dangerously drinkable’ dry hopped sours, hazy IPAs and imperial stouts on tap."

The petite space offers an intimate vibe where you can fill up growlers for the road or quench your thirst on a frothy flight. Tried, tested and true beer nerds are sure to enjoy sipping through the Brassneck’s small batch offerings in their industrial-chic inspired Tasting Room."

10 Vancouver Craft Breweries & Bars Every Beer Lover Should Try
"Brassneck Brewery’s small tasting room in Mount Pleasant—just around the corner from Main Street Brewing in fact—is always brimming with loyal fans, no matter the day or season. The brewery began because the owners are truly, madly, deeply in love with beer. Their beer names are a lot of fun too—Bivouac Bitter, Bjørn Again, Passive Aggressive, Klutz!"

"Main Street Brewing Co. resides in one of Vancouver’s few surviving industrial heritage buildings, the “Vancouver Breweries Garage” which dates back to 1913.

Best Beer: Saison #7"
Mentioned by Vancouver Magazine
"Vancouver’s answer to a beer garden (yes, pretzels are on the menu, as well as free-range chicken wings) with leafy trees and twinkly string lights inside an exposed-brick, 20-foot-ceiling tasting room that’s set within a historic industrial warehouse. Oh, and the cool-graphic beer labels (like Naked Fox IPA) make for merch you actually want. 261 E 7th Ave., mainstreetbeer.ca"

9 Breweries Revitalizing Vancouver's Craft Beer Scene
"You can’t celebrate the newcomers without paying tribute to the OGs that set the scene for the rest to follow—for the Vancouver craft beer scene, that means R&B Brewing. Operating since 1997, R&B is just as relevant and beloved in the craft beer scene today as the day it opened its doors. With beers named after things that would make a local smirk knowingly—like the Dude Chilling Pale Ale or the Stolen Bike European-style lager with bright hops—drinking at R&B is like getting a drinkable lesson in Vancouver."

Mentioned by BCLiving
"It’s hard to believe Parallel 49 only opened a few years ago; the brewery has really exploded since opening. Their brews embody the fun of craft beer and their flavours showcase a diversity of original flavours. The tasting room acts as a refuge for beer afficiandos and newcomers alike, and allows visitors to enjoy sampler sizes of everything from ales, lagers, malts and popular seasonal brews."

"Driven by a never ending thirst for amazing beer, Parallel 49 does things a bit differently, offering great beers with unique flavors, such as the hopped sour Bodhisattva due to its unique leafy taste, the Tricycle Radler, giving of  a nice aroma of grapefruits and of course their Jearkface 9000 a great Wheat Ale."

"This is a local favorite and if you get there after 3pm on a Saturday you will be fighting for a seat after a long wait. Service can be a wild card and staff often looks overwhelmed but the beer is cheap. With the opening of their new tap room your even more likely to find a spot to get in."

"While the BREWHALL’s magic is in feeling like a massive German brewhall, but there’s a reason they’ve been a multi-award winner for the annual Populist Awards and it’s because there’s also magic in the patio, beer, staff, community, really all of it. They also serve a mean brunch on the weekends and the patio is conveniently covered for when Raincouver is in town."

"There was a strong chance that tiny Faculty could have been overlooked by drinkers drawn to the main/Olympic village area by the massive likes of Tap & Barrel, CRAFT, Brewhall, etc. But it seems Faculty has made its mark, and impressed enough drinkers to solidify a strong showing on the list."

15 Best Breweries in Vancouver BC (with maps
"We didn’t really consider Dockside Brewing the first few times we were on Granville Island, because it’s located alongside the Dockside Restaurant that is usually swarming with tourists, but that doesn’t take away from the tasty beer, so it’s worth a stop, especially after a long day of walking around the island. Location: 1253 Johnston St. Website: http://docksidevancouver.com/about/. Other tours you may enjoy:"
Mentioned by Ale/Sessions
Ranking Vancouver’s Best Breweries
"Many may not realize that Granville Island is home to two breweries, with the Granville Island Hotel housing its own onsite brewing facility. Dockside earns some good brownie points for having an excellent waterfront patio, but loses some for being fairly pricey."

"This rather small brewery operation is serious about presenting customers with a good time in their tasting room along with a good tasting beer. In case you were wondering, Luppolo means hops in Italian, reflecting the Italian heritage of some of the owners. That’s not all you’ll see of Italy here either."
Mentioned by Ale/Sessions
Ranking Vancouver’s Best Breweries
"Luppolo has flair, both in their brewing and in their taproom. While it may be a small venue, they consistently manage to pump out some creative ideas. I happen to think Luppolo doesn’t get as much credit as they deserve, so nice to see them in the top ten."

"Here's an IPA and an Imperial IPA you'll be coming back for for years. Luppolo spent a lot of time and effort on the space here to make it perfect. Absolutely love their brewing equipment!"
