What To Expect
Main Street Brewery
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
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.

5.00This tour introduced me to three breweries within easy walking distance of each other, tasting a flight of four four-ounce pours at each. Our guide, Nick, was very friendly and informative walking us through each tasting, explaining the history and brewing process of the type of beer and the hosting brewery itself. Each venue was welcoming as well, enabling us to tour the production area at Main Street or giving us smaller tastings of beers not featured on the tour. The small group also enabled our group of strangers to quickly bond and have a really great time together. Although the tour does not include food, you spend enough time at each spot to order something on your own if you choose. Our group strongly recommends the string cheese at Faculty. This is also a great tour to take before a game. It ends with enough time for an easy walk to the arena. Thanks, Nick, for a great tour!
Authentic and insightful experience

5.00Joining Chad’s craft beer tour in Vancouver was such a fantastic way to explore the local craft beer scene! His deep connection to the community and knowledge about each brewery really stood out, making the experience both authentic and insightful. We visited three unique breweries, each offering a great variety of local craft beers. We were in a small group of 4, which created a cool atmosphere - it was like going out with friends and having a good time. We can highly recommend this tour with Chad to anyone visiting Vancouver!
I really recommand this tour

5.00Chad was very friendly and passionate, you'll learn a lot with him. Don't hesitate to book this tour, it's less expansive than the other options but as great if not better than them. We had a really great time overall.

5.00Our guide, Chad? I never totally caught his name cuz it was very loud, was super fun, informative and a joy to hang around for a few hours. Being able to get a "feel" of the local scene made it much more personable and memorable. Our group by the end of the tour, felt as if we were lifelong friends. A great afternoon, one in which I would do again.
Highly Recommended!!!

5.00Chad is very knowledgeable and certainly qualified to conduct this tour. I definitely learned a lot about beer brewing and how each beer gets it taste. He knows the places we went to very well. Side tour would be Chad talking about building art while walking from one brewery to another
