Greater
Victoria
Victoria is home to Canada’s first brewpub and some of British Columbia’s most popular breweries. Venture beyond — visit nearby Sooke or hop a ferry to explore the Southern Gulf Islands. Unique experiences are waiting in Greater Victoria!
Beer has been brewed in Victoria longer than anywhere else in British Columbia, dating back to 1858 when Victoria Brewing was founded by a German man who came north from San Francisco during the Fraser Canyon Gold Rush. William Steinberger quickly decided that rather than panning for gold he would brew liquid gold for the thirsty hordes of prospectors.
Apart from the Prohibition years (1916-1920) brewing was a constant in Victoria until 1982 when the city’s single remaining Labatt plant was demolished. But Victoria was “dry” for just a couple of years until Canada’s first brewpub, Spinnakers, opened in 1984 and several breweries followed, opening every few years. Today, more than a dozen separate breweries operate in the Greater Victoria area, each with its own style and approach, along with several excellent tap houses, quality liquor stores, and numerous restaurants that offer strong beer menus.
Stroll around “Brewery Bay,” a walkable ring of brewpubs and breweries that surrounds the Upper Harbour in downtown Victoria. Take the Victoria Harbour Ferry or the Pickle Pub Crawl or join a bicycle tour with the Pedaler. West Coast Brewery Tours also offers bus tours to help you explore this dynamic beer community. The neighbouring district of Esquimalt is home to two more breweries as well.
Drive or cycle up the Saanich Peninsula to check out five dynamic and very different breweries, or visit nearby Sooke to discover another terrific trio of breweries.
The Southern Gulf Islands, Pender, Mayne and Salt Spring, are an idyllic archipelago accessible by ferry from the Swartz Bay Ferry Terminal half an hour north of Victoria, and are home to two unique breweries along with a plethora of cideries, restaurants, artisans, parks, and other activities.
Sip, savour, experience and explore everything the Greater Victoria Ale Trail has to offer.
