North Van festival to highlight local brews

  • 2022-10-10
North Shore Craft Beer Week will be returning this November, highlighting local drink and food from the North Vancouver area.

For 11 days, the festival will provide the opportunity to sample over a dozen local craft beers in one area. Each day will have a different featured company, with brands like Black Kettle Brewing, La Cerveceria Astilleros, House of Funk, and Deep Cove Brewing & Distillers among those selected. There will also be an exclusive “collaboration brew” made specifically for Craft Beer Week. Craft beer is a booming industry, with many brewers using colourful names or logo design to make them stand out, as well as marketing themselves at events such as this.

North Shore Craft Beer Week will also include local food trucks and vendors such as Tornado Potato, Reel Mac & Cheese, and Dos Amigos to go with the drinks. There will be live music and other performances each night arranged by Musos Entertainment, and prize giveaways from the North Shore Tourism Association. Every visitor will receive a souvenir mug to drink from, with drink tokens used to purchase beer. Some proceeds from Craft Beer Week will go towards the Lions Gate Hospital Foundation.

The 2022 North Shore Craft Beer Week will take place from November 4 to 14, with the location shifting to various microbrewery locations in North Vancouver and the surrounding area.
