Itinerary

Main Street Brewery

one hour

We kick things off at Main Street Brewing, a landmark brewery housed in a beautifully restored 1913 industrial building in the heart of Mount Pleasant Neighborhood. Here, you'll get a behind-the-scenes look at the brewing process and sample some rare cask ale—one of the only places in Vancouver where you can try it. We’ll talk about how the Canadian craft beer movement took off and begin developing your beer-tasting skills with a guided flight of fresh, small-batch brews.
Mount Pleasant

Passing by

We head out on the streets to walk through Mount Pleasant’s Brewery Creek district—a neighborhood known for its vibrant street art, indie vibe, and brewing history. As we walk, I’ll point out local murals, hidden restaurants, and cool neighborhood hangouts. It’s a chance to soak in the creative energy of the area and get personal recommendations for where to eat, drink, and explore.
Stop 3

one hour

Our second brewery stop is R&B Ale & Pizza House, a local favorite and one of the pioneers of the Vancouver craft beer scene. Known for their funky beer styles and cozy atmosphere, this spot is all about bold flavors and community vibes. You’ll enjoy a fresh flight of beers you won’t find anywhere else in the city, while we dive into the stories of beer names, the neighborhood, and the people who built it.
Stop 4

one hour

We wrap up the experience at Faculty Brewing, a modern, experimental micro-brewery that embraces open-source brewing, sustainable practices, and community-driven values. It’s a welcoming, LGBTQ+ inclusive space known for its creativity and approachability. You’ll enjoy a final tasting flight in a relaxed setting that invites conversation and connection—plus, we'll share top local food and drink recommendations to help you make the most of your Vancouver stay.
