I first tried their Highland Scottish Ale on tap at the Wolf and Hound and fell in love. It quickly became one of my favourites and was pretty impressed to find it was a small local brewery on Commercial Drive! I purposely seek out this brew and, even when sampling other craft beer on tap, I'm sure to leave room for a Scottish Ale. Love it. read more

Personally, I loved Storm Brewing. We stopped by on a bicycle ride while visiting Vancouver. Super quirky, so not for everyone. Don't come here if you want food or a polished brewery experience. But, if you want to hang out with some cool down-to-earth folks and try some really unique brews (I really liked the Pineapple Upside Down Cake) then definitely drop in. read more

For a local Vancouver brew, Storm Brewing (along with Red Racer) are on my top list. Storm crafts amazing brews (Hurricane IPA and Black Plague Stout especially) and always make us happy :) read more

Radically different! Their beers are always so unique and different that it's hard not to always want to swing by to see what's up at Storm. I love this place! read more

Storm is a staple in the Vancouver beer scene and best of all, they sell growlers out of their brewery. Pick up the freshest beer at competitive prices, minus the bottle deposit and tax! Also a chance to sample some really fantastic brews you'd have to hunt far and wide to drink! read more

This one is definitely different to the other breweries in the area. Theres no real tasting lounge, just a shed where everyone stands around. Dont let that dissuade you though, the beer is very good. They have a much more unusual selection than i have seen anywhere outside of portland. They dont do tasting flights but they do have free samples and growler fills. Check it out! read more

Just love this one stop shop as an early Friday evening stop. 6 Samples are free (with cash tip). $12/16 for growler fill $5 any size empty bottle purchase. Tonight we tried samples ranging from Scottish ale to tiger stripe (fennel, anise orange) to actual fennel ale to candy apple to witches' brew which had an unusually mossy feel to the finish. And lastly the grand treat of vanilla whiskey stout. Last visit we tried a Klingon Ractachino, spicy and dark but hard to imagine several cups full. Interesting that so far all the pilsners are a bit too Hop Hopity but that may be my particularly gentle (aka Timmy over StarB) palette. I discussed at length whether there was any way to keep the max bubble blast but employee craftsman consensus was "one bottle's as good as the next" said in lovely Aussie accent. There was talk over some specialty bottles from south of the border but no price point was established and I don't know about u but I'm not going into debt over the price of the yet unfilled growler bottle. Met a fella who was sampling his 500th unique craft beer and had created an app to track it and comments. Didn't get his name but his friend was Joel. As always the fluid nature of sampling on a warehouse floor means that fast friendship are established through beer shooters ( wink wink). So nice to start the weekend with a smile. read more

Storm Brewing - Introducing a visiting Ontario friend to the East Van tradition of Storm sampling - Breweries Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

A dungeon of creative beverages. I recommend the cinnamon bun and anything with spice! Definitely worthy of a stop on your brewery tour.

Visiting from CA and put Storm on the list bc it kept popping up when doing brewery research. It smells like my college fraternity house on a Saturday morning, minus the sense of guilt. Such a great spot. read more

Extremely sketchy location. HOWEVER. The kindest staff ever and I think they make some of the best beer in Vancouver. I would highly recommend stopping by. read more

Come for the beer, stay because your shoes are stuck to the floor. This place has some really good beer, and quite a bit of it is interesting. I had a blueberry pie ale, among other things, and it was unexpectedly good. The IPAs were excellent, and they had a couple good sours. If you're overly concerned with cleanliness or sanitary conditions, this might not be the brewery for you, though. They've been making beer in the same location for over twenty years, and I don't know if they've ever cleaned the floors. read more

Great place, great staff. Slightly dodgy, but hey, talk about being hip. Really good beers at a good price. Wished the growler bottles were a little cheaper, but if you have your own bottle, good price as well. Really liked the place a lot. Keep it the way it is! Its awesome. read more

Been there a few times in the past when they had free samples. They now charge 7 dollars for 6 samples. The pours seem smaller as well. You still get the plastic cup and ask for each flavour. You still need to stand in the sketchy shack with no tables etc. 7 dollars for 6 is still cheaper than other breweries but definitely not the same comfort or atmosphere. Will probably try the rest of the breweries before coming back.. also the washroom is terrible. So use the washroom before you come here! read more

Favourite micro brew in vancouver. I fell in love with the Black Plague 7 years ago - admittedly I like it better than Guinness IMHO. Their brainstorms are delicious. Go for a visit, or don't and suffer massive FOMO read more

This place is janky and I love it. The most random beer selections, each delicious in a unique way that keeps me coming back. Easily the best sour beer I've ever had and at 11% that's unheard of!!! The service was also incredible, super friendly and seemed to be loving every minute whilst working. Well done Storm, I will be sending heaps of people your way! read more

Great little place, love that it's open before all the other breweries! Perfect to start a brewery adventure in YVR!! Thanks for the great beers and company! read more

Seriously, don't be fooled by the sketchy exterior! Delicious beer, fabulous service, big heart. You must check this place out!

Grungy place BUT great selection of beer, especially their seasonal! Always something interesting and delectable! I enjoy their welcoming graffiti on the building (great branding and clever name) and genuine staff. read more

The tool shed in Evil Dead where Ash cuts his own hand off and replaces it with a chainsaw, has better ambience. But Storm has beer. Who's laughing now? read more

It felt like some sort of weird Canadian cocktail party, replete with costumed staff, but the beer is excellent. First impressions might detour you, but the selection in this garage atmosphere is unparalleled. Every beer is great... particularly the chocolate orange stout and Mrs Claus's pilsner( bought growlers of both). $7 for six samples is money well spent. Go. You won't regret it. read more

This place is fun. We had great service by the two ladies that work there, and the tasting concept is a great one. Anytime you can make a beer taste like cream soda, I'm a fan. Seeing the tinctures out in the open is really neat as well. read more

This place is awesome. It is like Boneyard north. No frills tasting room, good beer, samples and growler fills only.

Besides having one of the weirdest poo's , from their spicy mango brews, i would recommend storm.

This is not a brewery, it's a laboratory! :) Definitely the best beer concoctions this city has to offer. I've been twice and will return again. The Heathers are lovely to chat with! read more

Hoarding meets good beer. Friendly Deadhead like staff serving a good selection of beers you did not know existed.

My favorite brewery, BY FAR! Unlike many others, they're willing to take risks to make something delicious. When others make a flavored beer, they LIGHTLY flavor it for mass appeal. Storm says, "Let's go for it!" and makes a true flavored brew. Doesn't mean everyone will like everything, but the effort is appreciated! I've tried some 20 different brews from them, and I've pretty much liked them all. Samples are by CASH donation, so be sure to bring at least a few bucks in support. Staff is friendly, and knowledgeable in beer-stuff. read more

Called them to find out about kegs while on the website. hung the phone up just as I found the pricing info. my phone rings and its them saying they just missed a call from me! love the service and love the beer! read more

What an awesome place . Erik & Heather running the taps . Love the feel . Vancouver must visit

In my opinion, this is how an honest business operates. Great folks handing off the beer as well. Big love for the interior design!

One of my favourite breweries in the city. Super unique beer (raspberry mint! apple pie ale!) and authentic vibe.

Going down to Storm and picking up a growler should be on your bucket list. It is a corner stone of the microbrewery community, and It is worth the trip just to hang around in the brewery and sample their beers. The staff preposterously friendly, helpful, and fun to talk to. I totally recommend their Hurricane IPA... If they have any left. That is the down side alright. They do run out of some of their great beers from time to time. But that's to be expected. read more

I was here on Saturday morning 4/26 and fell in love with this place. The staff was friendly and gave generous tasting pours of whatever I wanted to try. Even though there is nowhere to sit, they seemed happy to just squat on the ground and read the paper for a bit. The Imperial Flanders Red Ale was outstanding. If you want to check out what the craft beer scene in Vancouver has to offer, you need to come to Storm. read more

These guys are just fantastic! I picked up a few kegs from them a few years back for a party and just this week I returned one that my boyfriend had bought for a hockey wind-up. Nothing but awesome service, good prices and the beer is fantastic. Not much more needed to say. I'll be a return customer for as long as this keeps up. read more

So you like microbrews eh? well, you'd be a fool to miss this one: a textbook small operation steeped in vancouver roots, Storm has been supplying the city with solid casks and kegs for something like 15 years now. Start with the Scottish Ale or IPA, then dive into their unique seasonal brews - like the Caskival-winning Root of All Evil Root Beer (Yes, it works gloriously). If ya want it short and sweet, it's the Lambic for you. Anyways, enough from the peanut gallery: cruise on down to the brewery yourself. It's on upper commercial North of Hastings, and I'm confident will cater to all your beer desires. (grab a dirt-cheap superburger from JB Sandwich Bar while you're there...) read more

Hello this is Sarah's friend Kevin please put this review on your door so I can point at it and be like hey that's me
