Sooke Brewing Company

Downtown Sooke's local brewery.

Founded by a group of locals with long roots going back several generations in the local community, this brewery’s custom-built facility in downtown Sooke is a popular spot for locals and visitors alike. The building’s iconic design features a giant tree trunk front and centre framed by fieldstone pillars. It definitely stands out as one of the most attractive brewery facades you will encounter.

And once you are within the brewery — or sitting on the patio — you will definitely find the beer lineup lives up to the promise of that eye-catching entrance. Head Brewer John Adair is a dedicated craftsman who worked his way up from the bottling line at a Vancouver brewery to eventually become Head Brewer here. He puts his all into brewing, and his attention to detail pays off in delicious, pitch-perfect beers. While the brewery only packages special barrel-aged beers in bottles occasionally, growler fills and pre-filled crowlers are available for takeaway.

While the brewery does not have its own kitchen, food is available to order from the excellent food truck parked behind the brewery.
