Also be on the lookout for a rosemary and olive gin in production."

"Located in the charming Deep Cove community on the North Shore, Deep Cove Brewers and Distillers is a gem. While the vast majority of breweries around the city focus on just beer, these guys bring a solid beer and spirit game. On tap, you'll find over a half dozen brews made from sustainable Canadian ingredients."

"Bringing together their love of beer, combined with their distinct brewing styles through unconventional pairings, these brewers have created not only well crafted beers but have managed to give each type their own and unique personality, you can feel the love with each sip you take."
