Granville Island Brewing

In 1984, Mitch Taylor had a dream of creating premium hand crafted beers. Today, Vern Lambourne continues Mitch’s dream with his own Limited Release Beers for Granville Island Brewing.

Sometimes you can just follow your nose and peek in the windows to catch a glimpse of the brewmaster and crew at work. Billowing steam, hoses and bottling action are a sure giveaway that Pumpkin Ale or perhaps Belgian Abbey are soon to hit the shelves. If all is quiet, try the side window, that’s where the malt sacks are - a great place for 40 winks between brews!

If you see Vern at the side of the road, be sure to stop and assist. It’s very likely some beer might come your way!
