10 Best Breweries and Beer Places in Sooke

"Spinnaker’s Gastro Brewpub is the second oldest of the Victoria brewpubs and arguably the most popular and famous brewpub in the city. They offer slightly more upscale dining (similar to Canoe), using farm-to-table ingredients for their dishes and focusing on fresh and hearty menu items. Spinnaker’s is also a guesthouse, so if you fancy Victorian-style rooms, whirlpool tubs, fireplaces, and hardwood floors, book accommodation here for a night or two."

"I didn’t spend a whole lot of time at Hoyne Brewing, I only stayed for a few small tasters, but I enjoyed how friendly the staff was and the unique beers I tasted. Hoyne is thought of as one of the craftiest and highest quality breweries in Victoria, BC, and there really wasn’t a beer I didn’t like in my small free flight of tasters. When you learn the history behind this brewery you’ll understand why the beer is so good."

"Hoyne Brewing first opened in downtown Victoria in December, 2011. Founder Sean Hoyne had been brewing professionally since 1989, helping launch several breweries for other owners throughout his career. He has been the brewmaster at Swans and Canoe Brewpub for numerous years."

Now relocated in Fan Tan Alley from Fisgard Street, the store specializes in small batch, made from scratch, locally sourced paletas and ice creams. The milk used is organic from Avalon dairy and their delicious products are packed in wrappers made from natural plant-based sustainable resources that are 100% biodegradable & compostable."

"In the heart of Victoria’s Chinatown, tucked down Canada’s narrowest street, discover this small-batch ice cream shop. Packing big flavour, Kid Sister Ice Cream is a must-try, from-scratch, ice cream and popsicle joint. With flavours that alternate almost daily, you can try something new each visit!"
