It’s almost that most wonderful time of the year again—when Vancouver’s North Shore Craft Beer Week takes over the Shipyards Brewing District and beyond from November 1st – 15th! Come Play like a Local for two weeks of one-of-a-kind parties and special events celebrating all things craft beer (plus cider and spirits!).
Here’s what’s on tap at North Shore breweries over the first two weeks of November:
Kick it all off at the Official Vancouver’s North Shore x Craft Beer Week Collab Brew Launch Party. Get the first taste of this exciting new beer and dance the night away to a live DJ.
Transport yourself to Bourbon St, New Orlean at Shaketown’s Big Easy Bash. Enjoy a live Jazz swing band and DJ, delight in the release of a favourite seasonal beer, The Big Easy Nitro Stout, and taste some new, creole inspired menu items from The Gull Bar and Kitchen.
$25 gets you into this exclusive event which will see the official unveiling of the Crema Nocciola hazelnut liqueur, plus a cocktail and desserts.
Try a Limited Release Beer Cask and try your hand at “Learn to Play Blackjack Night.” (Not real blackjack, of course (no gambling here) but there will be some prizes for winners!)
Take a Risk, get a Life, find a Clue and other Trivial Pursuits at Board Games Night!
Come thirsty—and hungry— to a very special Kitchen Pop-Up with Special Guest that will complement Beva’s already delectable tasting room menu.
Breakout your hammer pants and your scrunchies and get down with yo bad selves at the ultimate 90’s Party.
Gather your smartest friends and come get quizzed at Trivia Night.
Get a little jump on the season at a party with a Holiday Vibes Theme, plus special snacks and drinks, $2 off beers, and music.
How do you celebrate Viking Day? At Braggot Brewing, the celebration includes keg lifting, keg carrying, axe throwing, and stein holding—and some viking-worthy snacks in-between.
On Remembrance Day, there’ll be specials for veterans (with uniform or ID) plus a Copperpenny open-house with tours available from 3pm to 5pm.
Be there for a brand new beer release, plus drinks & food specials on a menu in partnership with Las Margaritas.
Get jiggy with it at a DJ Night that will also include some new beer releases.
Help welcome the newest addition to the North Shore Brewing family at Strathcona North! The night will feature Happy Hour pricing on Beers, exclusive Strathcona beers on tap, and DJ Vinyl Ritchie on the decks!
The Wrap-Up Party on November 15th will be at the beautiful Pipe Shop in the Shipyards, get your tickets now before they’re gone! Get ready for one heck of an evening featuring chill tunes, delicious bites from some favorite food trucks, and a whole lot of fantastic brews flowing freely. It’ll be the perfect way to cap off the festivities and toast the good times. Already have a feeling you’re not going to want the night to end? Keep good times going at the After Party at Strathcona North.
With so many breweries participating this year, you’ll need more than one day to see it all. Luckily, there’s a Hotel Package for that! Take your pick of either our Sip & Stay Package, our Sip, Shop & Stay Package, or our Sip & Bites Package. When you book your stay at a participating North Shore hotel, you’ll be able to enjoy special deals at your favourite local attractions.
And if you’re ready to take your craft beer experience out into the rest of November, be sure to pick up your Vancouver’s North Shore Tasting Passport. All month long, visit participating locations to collect stamps with purchase. Redeem stamps for a free glass and get entered into a draw for a chance to win the grand prize package!
