Callister - Vancouver - BC Ale Trail

Canada's first brewery incubator.

Callister Brewing is one of Vancouver’s smallest breweries, independently owned and operated by Chris and Diana. In the heart of Yeast Van, we offer 12 rotating taps, featuring lagers, pale ales, IPAs, sours, farmhouse styles, and more, including 3 cask engines with traditional British ales. Also try our family-friendly lineup of Callister craft sodas like Raspberry Earl Grey, Hibiscus Lemonade, or Cream Soda for the kids!

Fun Fact

Callister has proven to be a very successful incubator for some of Vancouver’s most exciting new breweries. Since opening, several other companies got their start: Boombox Brewing, Brewery Creek Brewing, Good Buddy Brewing, Lightheart Brewing, Morningstar Brewing, Night Owl Brewing, Real Cask Ales, Sundown Brewing, and Superflux Brewing (originally Machine Ales).

Boombox and Superflux, in particular, have enjoyed big success contract brewing elsewhere — look for their beers on tap at pubs and taphouses or in packaged form at private liquor stores in the city.
