Besides beer, there are cider, radler, wine, cocktail and non alcoholic drinks like kombucha, alcohol free beer, lemon soda, sparkling water and juice boxes. The main stuff is still beer though with many different flavors. We noticed if you asked for the beer to drink at the beer garden at the back, you get less beer due to the mason jar used. If drinking inside the tasting room, it will be served in a glass. We only saw that when the staff had to transfer the beer from the glass to the mason jar after we said we would like to drink outside. The beer garden was nice. There was a mini playground for kids, grass for dogs and many Adirondack chairs scattered around for seatings. Just remember to leave the empty mason jars in a bin next to the gate when leaving. Cameras are all around the area.

I'm a bit of a creature of habit and I generally go for a dark beer but they've been out of my favourite Nitro for a while but I've found options. The fries are lovely and crispy and always hot. We usually get two tacos to share between three of us - beef brisket and beef barria I think it's called. They are completely different taste profiles and the accompanying sauces are delish. It's basically on an outdoor patio that's been screened in with plastic with lovely space heaters that keep everyone warm. There are a few seats inside as well but I've never been there. The ambiance is lovely - it's always buzzing with people coming and going and it's often a bit of a wait for a seat but once sitting down you aren't disturbed except with the lovely staff delivering food. Every staff person I've encountered has been friendly and while super busy seem to really enjoy being there. Wide variety of people too - people from the ski hill, pre theatre people, after work people. And the best part? Dogs are allowed!!

When the opportunity to see this ditillery came up because I would be In Campbell River, this was a no brainer. I knew what I wanted, so I came away with three single malts. Smoke Point, which is an Islay style but smoked with driftwood, Classic Single Malt, and 10 Year Old Estate Whiskey. The gentleman helping me out was very friendly. They are known as a field-to-flask or grain-to-glass distillery. They grow their own grains to make the product and is disilled on site. All of the whiskies are overproof, with some more so than others. Enjoy responsibly.

Being on the farm was a homey feeling and they also offer food. This place would be ideal for taking friends from out of town. The wine tastings are sure to inspire a few purchases. The winery itself is a beautiful design. The front reminds me of a fairy tale with a large round door. The scenery is worth a visit. The tasting staff are friendly and warm and the wines sweet and cool. If you enjoy berry wines or wine in general try Coastal Black out. They also have annual functions if you look on the webpage. It is a family run local business so it is a great way to support local.
