Tips from the community

Vancouver Island (or VI) Brewing is one of the older breweries on the island. They are kind of like the seasoned veteran that's seen it all. They have a small variety of long time local favorite brews like Pipers Pale Ale. Around 2018 they made some bold changes and began brewing more experimental beers like the Twisted Stalk Blackberry Helles and Magic Hour Grapefruit Gose. Then they opened up a tasting room to showcase the new offerings. It was a hit! Vancouver Island Brewery makes this list of best breweries for its determination to stay relevantly tasty amongst the growing competition.
