10 Best Breweries in Killarney

"33 Acres brews consistently quality beers, and with the addition of 33B, their experimental tap room, they have the ability to add a very creative spin to their core lineup. This was interesting, the public poll ranked 33 Acres quite high on the list, but with our score and the other beer experts average it went from a top ten ranking down at least 10 spots."

"33 Acres Brewing is a West Coast company through and through. Their three locally crafted beers are inspired by natural elements and appropriately named: 33 Acres of Life, Ocean and Darkness. Each beer reflects the characteristics of these elements and conveys different flavours."

"33 Acres Brewing Co. proves that a lengthy brunch menu does not necessarily equal success. Their tiny, super solid, two-item menu creates a lineup at the 11am opening hour. Choose from an Avocado Smash on (Nelson the Seagull's amazing sourdough) and Beer waffles."

"The unique design and minimalistic decor of the Brassneck Brewery complements the classic beers brewed on-site. Owners Nigel Springthorpe and Conrad Gmoser are dedicated to their craft and have successfully created a space where people can stop by for a beer after work, fill up growlers on the go and, of course, enjoy a sampling of tasters. Don’t-miss Drink: Passive Aggressive IPA. Despite the name, the hops in this one are anything but passive."

"Brassneck Brewery (2148 Main Street) offers great sample paddles and has knowledgeable staff — the small-scale brewery wants to keep things simple by just offering growlers to go, kegs and tastings on site at the Growler Room & Tasting Room. You won’t find any cans or bottles here. But you will find some ‘dangerously drinkable’ dry hopped sours, hazy IPAs and imperial stouts on tap."

"Part of the so-called Yeast Vancouver scene—the appropriately dubbed "Brewery Creek" area of East Vancouver—Main Street Brewing sits in an industrial building from 1913. It’s an impressive spot, with high, slightly peaked, rough wooden ceilings, polished concrete floors, and a plywood filling station where regulars come to top up their growlers. Today, the large operation turns out a full slate of suds: five beers sold year-round and another 30 that rotate."

"Housed inside an industrial heritage brewery garage from 1913, Main Street Brewery is equal parts approachable and satisfying. The perfect place to spend an afternoon with a tasting flight, Main Street offers perfectly executed beers that won’t necessarily challenge your palette, but they will make you realize how delicious a straightforward style, like their Naked Fox IPA, can be when done properly."

"We’re a sucker for cool branding, so naturally we’re all over Main Street Brewing’s cans. They’re flavours are also unique and experimental, if you’re looking for something different than the typical. They also have a patio, which is why they’re on this list."

"You can’t celebrate the newcomers without paying tribute to the OGs that set the scene for the rest to follow—for the Vancouver craft beer scene, that means R&B Brewing. Operating since 1997, R&B is just as relevant and beloved in the craft beer scene today as the day it opened its doors. With beers named after things that would make a local smirk knowingly—like the Dude Chilling Pale Ale or the Stolen Bike European-style lager with bright hops—drinking at R&B is like getting a drinkable lesson in Vancouver."

"The brews at R&B are named after iconic Vancouver places and things like their Dude Chilling Pale Ale, Stolen Bike Lager, and their Vancouver Special IPA. You can stop and get your growlers filled and your favourite beers in cans at the Growler Station. Or enjoy menu items from the Ale & Pizza House on the two patios. Address: 1-54 East 4th Ave, VancouverPhone: 604-336-0275"

"Old records, weird lighting and a very humble vibe are all positives for the brewery. They also happened to make of one of the better initial NE IPAs in the city (Shake Your Fruity) which continues to be a solid beer."

"Artisan Sakemaker handcrafts small-batch sake in Vancouver, and they’re actually the first local producer of fresh, premium sake. They use 100% Canadian ingredients in their sake, and you can do tastings at their Granville Island shop!. Why are they on this list of dessert spots in Vancouver?"

"A photo posted by Artisan SakeMaker (@artisansake) on Oct 21, 2016 at 4:53pm PDT. Known for: OsakeJunmai Nama. The distillery: Located on Granville Island, Artisan SakeMaker was Canada’s first sake winery and has been around since 2007."

"If you’ve driven down Powell street, Andina’s is hard to miss. The bright yellow brewery serves up some delicious ceviche, and is generally fairly busy. While they do take some unique risks with their beer, not all of them are successful, but the ones that are tend to resonate very well with drinkers."

"South American inspired cuisine with an Andean flare & Colombian influenced - Finger food pub-style items. Individual or sharable portions. We recommend: Platachos (Nachos with Plantain Chips) Empanadas (Beef and Veggie) Ceviches (Fish, Shrimp"

"That means you’ll be seeing lots of wood accents, including a gas fireplace. As you sip, you’ll be feeling nice and cozy with pillows, soft lighting, and candles. As for beer, they offer 2 core beers while the other 7 are rotating taps."

"Located on Mainland Street, one of Yaletown’s two main north-south arteries, Yaletown Brewing Company has been an after-work, lunch, and evening mainstay in Vancouver’s converted warehouse district since 1994. The brew pub—which also includes a 160-seat restaurant—is classic Yaletown, with exposed brick walls and rough-hewn timber cross beams. At the back of the pub, behind a wall of glass, is the guts of the operation: massive vats full of fresh beer."

"Conveniently located downtown in Yaletown (hence the name), it’s walking (or stumbling distance) if you’re a downtowner. Get a front row view to all the Yaletown action in one of Vancouver’s historical neighbourhood breweries. The patio is covered and heated."

"Although I realize that this hotel is a controversial property given that it’s managed by the family of the Donald Trump – president of the United (or divided?) States of America – there’s no denying that it fits this list. Trump International Hotel & Tower Vancouver is one of the city’s premier luxury hotels and is located in the heart of the Golden Mile, close to couture shopping, restaurants, entertainment and the buzzing financial center. The hotel is housed in Vancouver’s second tallest skyscraper, that stands at 616 ft (188 m) and 69 stories."

"You’ll feel incredibly pampered during your stay at the Trump International Hotel & Tower Vancouver. You’re right in the heart of the Golden Mile and just a stone throws away from plenty of shopping, fine dining and entertainment. While every room at the hotel comes with a gorgeous view, each room is uniquely designed."

"This Kitsilano spa has swept up a variety of awards over the years for its skin-specialized treatments. Try one of their body scrub and showers or a massage for full-on relaxation, or opt for a facial or microdermabrasion to freshen up your face. You can also get a spray tan or sunless tan here for a little bronze glow during greyer months."

"A bit of a Vancouver institution, the Wedgewood is one of Vancouver’s best hotels, offering old-world service and style for your stay. Beautiful rooms and common space, with a top-rated restaurant on-site (Bacchus). Regardless whether or not you stay here, try to stop by Bacchus at least once during your stay in Vancouver, even if it’s just for a glass of wine or cocktail."

"Featuring full-service spa, sauna and fitness centre, this non-smoking hotel offers rooms with private balconies. Bacchus, a luxurious lounge and restaurant, is located on site. Vancouver city centre SkyTrain station is just 5 minutes’ walk away."

"On those bleary-eyed mornings when only heaping comfort grub hits the spot, make for Main Street. Neighbourhood hangout Lucy Eastside Diner (facebook.com/lucyseastsidediner) – one of Vancouver’s few 24-hour eateries – serves good value breakfasts from traditional eggs and bacon to smoked salmon scrambles. The rest of the day, slide onto a counter perch and faceplant into well-priced burgers, fried chicken sandwiches or made-from-scratch soups."

"A post shared by Lucy’s Eastside Diner (@lucyseastsidediner). Lucy’s Eastside Diner is an all-day breakfast joint that invokes the spirit of the classic North American diner with an unexpected flair. Their menu offers a basic buttermilk pancake stack and a pulled pork variety also."
