Barnside Brewing – Delta

Watch for this farm-based brewery to open early in the year. Not far from Four Winds Brewing, the owners of Barnside are growing their own hops and barley to use in the beers they will be brewing. Based in a converted barn next to a cranberry bog, it will definitely be a destination brewery with a tasting room and outdoor patio.

Bricklayer Brewing – Chilliwack

As highlighted in the very slick video above, Bricklayer is set to open in Chilliwack this year. It’s actually one of two new breweries joining Flashback Brewing as part of the downtown revitalization happening in that Fraser Valley community. Field House Brewing is also opening a second location there.

Devil’s Bath Brewing – Port McNeill

This new brewery will extend the range of craft beer halfway up Vancouver Island. Rob Mangelsdorf, editor of The Growler and a contributor here, writes “Craft beer is coming to the North Island as three local homebrewing brothers plan to convert the former Shell gas station into the region’s first brewery using the brewhouse from the now defunct Forbidden Brewing in Courtenay.”

Erie Creek Brewing – Salmo

OK, I’m embarrassed to admit I had to look up where Salmo actually is. Turns out I’ve driven through it a few times on the Crowsnest Highway. Directly south of Nelson, the addition of this new brewery will complete a tidy West Kootenay loop of breweries including three in Nelson (Backroads Brewing, Nelson Brewing, and Torchlight Brewing), Rossland Beer Co. in Rossland, and Tailout Brewing in Castlegar. The brewery is based in a building that was originally a bank, and the old vault will be used as a games room. There is also a stage for live music.

Field House CHWK – Chilliwack

Abbotsford’s Field House Brewing is already considered one of BC’s most innovative breweries. Now it is planning on opening a second location in downtown Chilliwack.

Locals were very excited when they saw these banners go up on the future location of their very own craft brewery!

Herald Street Brew Works – Victoria

The good folks at Steel & Oak Brewing have teamed up with the owners of the Drake Eatery to build this new brewery in Victoria. Fingers crossed that it opens by the spring after a series of long delays.

Hornby Island Brewing – Hornby Island

One of the most beautiful Gulf Islands will soon have its very own craft brewery.

Jackknife Brewing – Kelowna

Brad Tomlinson, ex-brewer from Kettle River Brewing, is opening his own brewery right next door, adding to the boom of new breweries that have popped up in Kelowna over the past few years. Expect Jackknife to open in February.

Lakesider Brewing – West Kelowna

This brewery will be joining Kind Brewing on the west side of Okanagan Lake some time in 2020.

Mountainview Brewing – Hope

Hope: the place we all stop for a rest break on the way up or down the Coquihalla. Soon we’ll have a real reason to stop!
