But don't sleep on Squamish's limited-but-delicious food scene. A solid place to start is Backcountry Brewing, a blink-and-you'll-miss-it bar and restaurant on the back side of the towns main shopping plaza. Since debuting in 2017, Backcountry has been a British Columbia beer darling; now, Backcountry prides itself on an ambitious lineup of limited-release beers. From the outside, the converted warehouse blends in with the rest of the industrial block. But inside, Backcountry is lively and inviting. The accents sport a tan and teal color palette. The bar to the right is decked with retro bulbs and a letterboard menu. Sound-dampening panels and camo-shaded lamps hang down from the soaring exposed HVAC. Each table is decked with a laminated BC map and mid-century modern chairs. Eighties tunes echo around the halls. My partner and I visited Backcountry after a full day of hiking, ready to chow down; we ordered a sandwich, a pizza, and a few flights. The Soprano -- Italian Sando was piled high with capicola, mortadella, and prosciutto cotto on a fluffy, poppyseed-laden foccacia. Our side of Five Guys-style, wedge-cut fries was rich and salty, and we loved each one of Backcountry's house-made sauces more than the last. The Meat Your Maker pizza was a deliciously nostalgic riff on the classic meat-lovers pizza. The thin crust stood up against the hefty helping of toppings, and the poofy cornicione paired perfectly with the exciting sauces. On the brewery side, the flights proved to be a fun deal. Across the beers, I was most impressed by the sours. Our collective favorite was the "Plan B? We Need A Plan C, D, E, We Need More Alphabets" (a basil-forward pineapple sour), while the "I'll Take You To the Candy Shop" (a peach-centric sour) and the "Might As Well Go For A Soda" (a gummy cola-esque cherry sour) were strong competitors. Meanwhile, the non-sour beers I tried were relative duds, including the "Never Taken A Shortcut Before?" oatmeal stout and the Sneaky Peach Cider. The service was friendly but somewhat inattentive throughout the meal, and the bill came to about $60 (after tax and tip). More than anything else, Backcountry satisfied -- it achieved the ideal brewery balance of fun, elevated, and casual. After our stay in Whistler, I admittedly had low expectations for Squamish, but Backcountry Brewing was a beyond-pleasant surprise, and I surely would visit again.

The blood orange and spicy mango were great concoctions (not just syrupy slush) Rice bowls were tasty (salmon teriyaki, aioli chicken , prawn appie was a generous portion.) On one of the occasions, we shared a Dineout menu along with a few other appies. The kitchen accommodated our request by dividing the main dish into two nicely presented portions. (& @ no extra charge! I say this because Vancouver has become a town where establishments are ok charging up to $4 for having 1/2 salad & fries & still expect a 18% tip after taxes.) Lots of room for groups and family friendly. The place has lots of entertainment for kids. Will definitely come back during the summer months. There is a patio area outside.

Going into the Beach Cat brewery made me feel as if I was a coconut in a palm tree enjoying the light breeze and good company.

No luck, since the release was at the other location. No worries. Everyone here was friendly. The place was very clean and they had plenty of beer to go, as well as souvenirs. They had plenty of their beer on tap. There were at least 9 choices. I went with their sour after tasting it and a few hazy ipas. The tacos were good. The chicken was the best and the fish was also good. I wouldn't get the pork taco again. The street fries were okay. They were a little dry. All in all a great experience.

It was very chill. They have 2 locations and this one is the more 'lax version off the side of a road. Their other locations is in Chilliwack which is more established as a restaurant type. After talking to the guy at the till, he mentioned that they switch flavours every thursday. That was intriguing and made this place more interesting. I guess it's a place I'll have to come back to time to time. This place is more known for their sours. I have to agree. The strong blueberry one was really good. It was packed with flavour, thanks to the blueberries. Some of the other fruit sours were a bit of a miss. I had high expectations for the strawberry one but didn't really get strawberry unless I thought about it... My fave thing about their flights are the drink cards that go behind each flight glass. It was a nice touch to be reminded of what you got and read the vision behind the drink. (Almost wish the photos weren't of the cans but more of a moodboard to convey the flavour's vibe).

I started with a flight of their popular beers: ​Salted Lime Lager, Paloma Grapefruit Lager, Cerveza Light Lager, Orange Fresca Pilsner. The beers have won a few awards so I was not disappointed.

You really can't go wrong with that! All so unique and excited to grab these at BCLS now! I also got the Fondue Nachos (Tortilla chips with monterrey cheese, pico de gallo, home-made garlic mayo, pickled jalapeños, pico de gallo and refried beans). This was a pile of happiness. So many competing flavours and nice touches. The garlic mayo with the handmade salty chips was great. The refried beans combined with the guac was so fresh and warm!
