OUR SUMMER ISSUE: 

One thing that never ceases to amaze is how the craft beer scene in B.C. is in a constant state of evolution. Nowhere is that more apparent than in the transformation the Vancouver Craft Beer Week has seen over the past 10 years. From humble beginnings with just a handful of breweries and a smattering of  attendees, VCBW has grown into a cultural force in Vancouver.

And then there’s Victoria. While the birthplace of craft beer in Canada has been slow to adopt the tasting room, breweries like Phillips and Île Sauvage have recently changed that, ushering in a new era of craft beer in the capital.

Meanwhile, in Wine Country, craft beer is booming. With three new breweries open in the past year, and another five on the way, Kelowna is quickly becoming a craft beer destination in its own right. In fact, dozens of new breweries are currently being planned all over the province, many of them in mid-size cities like Kelowna, Langley and Comox Valley. And if you’re looking for the best way to experience them, Joe Wiebe has come up with bike tour itineraries all over the province.

Of course, not all craft breweries find success, as is evidenced by the growing list of now defunct breweries.

But that’s all part of the ebb and flow of craft beer. The only constant, is change.
