The BC Ale Trail offers an abundance of diverse experiences – there’s something for everyone!
British Columbia has more than 200 craft breweries, each with its own unique approach to brewing beer. Along with that, the province offers an incredible range of activities and spectacular natural sights. Paired together, this means you have many different ways to “find your flavour” along the BC Ale Trail.
Here are several suggestions from the BC Ale Trail blog.
Picnics and Patios
With the arrival of spring, and summer not far behind it, picnics are something to get excited about. Many breweries have picnic areas or where you can sip and savour in the sunshine.

Cycling and Sipping
