Checkerhead Brewing

NOTE: Open April Fool’s Day through Hallowe’en every year (closed in the winter).

Checkerhead Brewing, located in Shirley, BC, brings a quirky twist to craft beers.

This may be the only brewery in Canada, perhaps the world, that was envisioned by a juggler. David Aiken has travelled the world as a comedy juggler for over 40 years and also has a passion for brewing craft beer. Checkerhead Brewing’s beers are quite often tributes to some of Dave’s crazy performer friends, and now also to his local friends who helped bring his brewery dream to fruition. Each beer has a story behind it, so prepare to have your thirst quenched while also listening to some great stories.
