Main Street Brewery
Canada
We kick things off at Main Street Brewing, a landmark brewery housed in a beautifully restored 1913 industrial building in the heart of Mount Pleasant Neighborhood. Here, you'll get a behind-the-scenes look at the brewing process and sample some rare cask ale—one of the only places in Vancouver where you can try it. We’ll talk about how the Canadian craft beer movement took off and begin developing your beer-tasting skills with a guided flight of fresh, small-batch brews.
