I just have to drop in here to say, this Grapefruit Ale is my new favorite beer. It is SO light, tasty, full bodied... I can't sell it more. It's amazing. I had it at a different restaurant in Squamish and then had to come looking for the source. It was well worth it. I also will say, the vibe in this brewery is chill and fun, and the employees are awesome. Great spot to chill with friends! Get that Grapefruit Ale, it's the jam. read more

Whistler Brewing - Grapefruit ale! - Breweries Near Me - Whistler, British Columbia

One afternoon while in town we headed to Whistler Brewing. What a fun spot. The staff was so friendly, and fun. Unfortunately the afternoon we were there the kitchen was closed so we couldn't order food. They did offer for us to bring food in and there was a pizza place close, but we had lunch, so it wasn't needed. Mr. B chose the four beers for his flight and he added an extra one. He found the beers to be lovely and he enjoyed each one for the flavor that it offered. I was thrilled to find they also had wine and my riesling was chilled and very good. We really enjoyed our time there. Mr. B loved the Chestnut ale and bought a six pack. He enjoyed a few in the evening while we were at the hotel, and he carefully packed the other four to bring home. read more

"When I get out on the dancing floor There ain't no stopping for an hour or more I can't stop, I want to kiss your pretty lips 'Cause I know, pretty babe, you got honey in your hips" (The Yardbirds) Our big convention group had the place to ourselves as they closed the restaurant for "a private event", which just so happened to be us! We sampled five of their beers - Mountaineer Pilsner, Grapefruit Ale, Black Tusk Ale, Llemoncello, and Variable Conditions IPA. My favorites by far were the Pilsner and Llemoncello. Very drinkable and thirst quenching. Our food was an appetizer of Vegetable Samosas and I liked them a lot. Flaky crust, plenty of vegetables and potatoes, and just a hint of curry. We had quite a few pizzas in the dining room -vegetable, pepperoni, and a barbecue chicken and pineapple. I liked the vegetable and the BBQ chicken. Both had great flavor and a medium soft crust. We had a few GF and Celiac folks in our group and Whistler Brewery did an outstanding job accommodating them, so hat's off to their staff and kitchen. read more

I've always loved their beer so I knew I wanted to visit when we took a trip to whistler and it did not disappoint! We got a flight so we could try some we weren't familiar with and our server was so helpful and very well educated on the beers and the brewery. We found some new favorites like the chestnut wheat ale. We sat on the patio and luckily they are dog friendly! The restaurant has more of a homey warehouse feel which is super cool. Love how it feels more of a local gem rather than touristy. We also ordered some appies and we really enjoyed them. How could you go wrong with potato skins though! They have a little market so you can pick up some cold beers to take home as well. Overall highly recommend stopping by. We will definitely be back next time we are in whistler. read more

Great ambience, beer and bites! Stopped in for a snack and a beverage after a morning biking. The server was super friendly and helped us select a flight of beer.

Overall it's a fun place for aprés ski, especially if you're getting out of Whistler for wherever your night accommodations are, but I wouldn't say it knocked my socks off or anything. The beer was a bit limited with only 1-2 IPAs on the menu. I did appreciate the waitress making a point to tell us to get a pitcher as it was happy hour over spending on 4 beers between 2 people. The nachos were good, maybe not for the price point, but again good in an aprés ski kind of way. I would go back but would level set my expectations as it feels more like a bar than a true brewery. read more

Lovely hostess/waitress. Great and interesting beers. Nachos as big as your face. Everything was good. Got a six pack of the chestnut beer to take back over to the States - it was unique and tasted like dessert ... But not too sweet, just rich and lovely. read more

A great atmosphere & very welcoming staff. Whistler Brewing is a great tap house, with plenty of space for large groups. A perfect stop when visiting Fubction Junction! read more

Delicious cider and cute atmosphere. We enjoyed coming in and getting some snacks and getting our drink on.

Service was okay, friendly. Sat at the bar and it took a while to be noticed. Host was great very friendly. Essentially a tourist trap. Overpriced everything. Beer is average. Had the burger and it was well below average. Many better burgers in town. Would not recommend coming for food. Ambiance on the Patio is great so maybe lunch beers I would recommend. read more

If I could award 10 stars to Whistler Brewing Co., I would! We were really looking forward to our visit to Whistler Brewing Co., due to the high rating on Yelp, the glowing recommendations of the bar staff at the Firerock Lounge and due to our experiences with their brews that we had already sampled during our stay to date in Whistler. Seems like every bar and restaurant in Whistlers serves at least several of their brews! We arrived late one afternoon about 5:00 pm and the place was rockin'! They had a DJ "spinning" tunes. So the place is a bit raucous - in a good way. We each ordered an entire flight of brews and then went to sit in the area right by the entrance. Anna - the extremely cool assistant manager of Whistler Brewing Co., brought out our flights and explained them to us. We sampled in the following order: Powder Mountain Lager (American Pale Lager) (5.0% ABV) Bear Paw Honey Lager (American Adjunct Lager) (5.0% ABV) Whiskey Jack Ale (English Pale Ale) (5.0% ABV) Black Tusk Ale (English Dark Mild Ale) (5.0% ABV) Valley Trail Chestnut Ale (5.0% ABV) Grapefruit Ale (5.0% ABV) Big Sky Honey Lager (5.0% ABV) Lost Lake IPA (6.8% ABV) Cheakamus Chai-Maple Ale (5.0% ABV) I'm not typically a fan of lagers - but the Powder Mountain Lager and the Bear Paw Honey Lager were really good - I was surprised at how much I liked both of these. My top three faves of the day were: - Black Tusk Ale: it's almost like a Cascadian Dark Ale - but not quite. There were definitely some coffee and chocolate nuances present in this Ale. Very good. - Grapefruit Ale: Their web site cites: "dried grapefruit rind along with Sterling and Willamette hops" as the primary ingredients. And WOW does it ever deliver. The result is an astonishingly refreshing grapefruit aromatic with a crisp citrus finish. I almost cheered the first time I drank some of this over at the Firerock Lounge - it's that good! - Lost Lake IPA: An outstanding IPA! Hoppy, Citrusy, Piney, crisp, bitter finish! Amazing! The only brew I tasted that I did not enjoy was the Cheakamus Chai-Maple Ale. Was to cloyingly sweet for my taste. Anna was an awesome host. She came by several times to check on us, chat for a bit, and retrieve empty glassware. Anna has some amazing plant-based tattoos and she has a gorgeous Swedish accent. We very much enjoyed chatting with her. Check out Whistler Brewing Co., you won't be disappointed! read more

I came here several years ago and didn't love it but this time it blew me away!!!! I had the beef dip and it was one of the best sandwiches I have ever had. They've stepped up their food game!!!

The beers and food are alright. The service is good. We had the $10 lunch special - the chicken pot pie. The pie was ok, the coleslaw that came with it was ok as well. Compared with other microbreweries, their beers are less memorable to us. Not much else to say... read more

I went to Whistler Brewing for the beer, but was expecting food. Unfortunately when we went, there was no food available due to their Covid guidelines. While this was a bit disappointing, I overall really enjoyed my experience. I had a flight of four beers and really enjoyed the limited summer beers they had: the Apricot Wit and the Grapefruit Ale. The service was above and beyond. The bartender who served us was so friendly and conversational. The outdoor patio was really nice, and since it's in a quieter area of town it felt really relaxing. I would definitely go again, but if you are anything like me and don't want the beer to go straight to your head... eat before hand! read more

My friend and I stopped here on are way back down from Whistler for a pint or two. It was a little chilly inside so we had kept our jackets on. I asked for a flight of beer and I got Bear Paw Honey Lager, Whistler brewing company lager, and chestnut ale. I was surprised but I liked Bear Paw Honey Lager the best. I am not a huge fan of honey but the way it is brewed complimented each other. There didn't appear to have food except for a few snack items like chips. The bathrooms were decent and they had a band setting up for live music later that night. We missed the live music as we were heading to another place for dinner and drinks. read more

We enjoyed ALL the beers we tried here, including Honey Lager and three seasonal beers. The staff was friendly and helpful, even though they were slammed. We had a bite which was tasty but because of how busy they are, it took a while. If the place is hopping, you may want to ask how long it will be. But it's worth it, just order more beer. read more

Prices: good. Beer: good. No sales of beer glasses because it's "so busy" (with the 7 people in that afternoon): a major bummer, and the main reason I came here. Awesome space, though it sucks beer can't go outside to the picnic tables in the back (what's the point of the space then?). Bartenders were friendly enough, though definitely not what I've come to expect of Canada. The brewery itself is set quite outside of town as well, and had I not looked up directions, there would have been no indicating it was even there. I'd go back for takeaways, but apparently only of the beer because they don't sell their extremely cool etched glasses when they don't feel like it. read more

Solid beers, great service, fun vibe, cozy space! What else could you want from a mountain side brewery. A short trip from Whistler proper, about a $15 cab ride, and well worth it. Large selection of beers, brewed w/ skill & intent. Had a flight, and a few pints after - enjoyed each. A snack from the kitchen was tasty and held me over till dinner. Awesome old school hockey arcade game, that's free! Cool swag. Pro tip: walk the few blocks over to Coast Mountain Brewery and check them out as well before you head back to the slopes. Drink local! read more

Off the beaten track from the main area of Whistler but it wasn't too hard to find just a quick bus ride from the village. I am a fan of the beer and the decor of the brewery. I wasn't totally sold on the service at first. I wasn't sure if we ordered our beer where we were sitting or if we needed to go up to the bar. But then finally to our rescue came Anna and she took care of us and got us our delicious beer. We were very thirsty from our travels haha. read more

Beer was good but service was so bad. Waitress had a major attitude. Food was really really bad (tacos). Nachos looked way better. Lots of bros. read more

After being in Whistler village for almost a week we decided to venture out to function junction on bikes. After getting lost in 32 degree heat we came upon what we thought was a mirage but thankfully it was a brewery. Tastefully decorated, very chill atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seating and many beers on tap. No pilsners available much to my husband's chagrin but he ended up with a pint of pineapple wheat and he loved it - and this is a guy that scoffs at fruity beers. I tried a grapefruit beer that was definitely not too sweet and Uber refreshing. We enjoyed it so much that we are venturing back this evening (Friday) for the live music and to try out the food. read more

The beer and the service is fantastic! Every time we are in BC, we make sure to visit.

We did the Brewery tour & tasting through Groupon which I found for my bf since we were going to be up in Whistler for the weekend. The place is small and fairly quiet but with a steady stream of customers despite it being a gloomy and rainy cold afternoon when we went. I think the guide said the place was an old bus depot or something as the atmosphere rings of a warehouse with the large windowed garage door still intact as part of the restaurant's decor. The staff were reasonably friendly although not very engaging or on the ball. They left out our last tasting until we inquired and even then, were not certain if they had given it to us yet. The tour was fairly brief as the brewery is quite small. Basically a short walk around, look around, and some casual talking/explaining. Nothing too elaborate. I don't drink beer so can't say much about that but my 'frat boy' bf thought the beer 'sucked' although he refused to elaborate when I inquired for further justification. I guess it must really not meet his palate cuz he would have otherwise provided additional insight. We also had the veggie bombs which were a tasty snack - four round ball thingies about an inch in diameter with some red slaw...nothing fancy with presentation. ~Jeff's girlfriend read more

The boyfriend and I bought a two for one tour groupon for the brewery because we knew we'd be up in Whistler during the Christmas break and we are so glad we did. This is probably the best brewery tour I've been on in BC, especially considering it's a small operation. The fellow working at the front of house (there are some tables and TVs and they have a small selection of food options available - it looked like they offered daily specials) was very friendly and organized. He began offering the very generous tasters of the first few on-tap selections shortly after the scheduled 4 o'clock tour start, and brought more out to us while we were in the brewery! Our tour guide actually worked in the brewery and was very informative and passionate. Since this location is so small the tour was more of an overview of their brewing process, which my boyfriend and I enjoyed since we're quite technical people. There was a nice German couple on the tour who did home brewing and our guide spent a good fifteen minutes answering their questions after he had finished with the larger group. We discovered that the beer we buy in the lower mainland actually comes from their larger operation in Kamloops, and that the Whistler location services only the immediate area (Whistler/Pemberton). Since we were at the brewery, we stocked up on some of their less-readily-available options and lamented the fact that they are not yet bottling their amazing winter dunkel (it is like a beer-y Terry's Chocolate Orange!). read more

Terrible terrible terrible service. Unfortunately I don't drink beer, but both Cam and my buddy do. The beer is actually pretty good, it seems. That's where they get the 1 star. The brewery itself isn't so much of a place to go eat; it's more of a place to go hang out, have a snack and some beers and either watch the game or play a board game. When we went in, it was decently busy, but shortly cleared out so that we were only one of two or three tables present. The server took a good 20 minutes to come get our order. I ordered chips and salsa and the boys ordered pretzels and beer. My friend and I both ordered water as well. When ordering my chips and dip the server asked if I wanted to add guac and I of course said yes because who doesn't love guac? Probably 10 minutes later the boys get their beers, but no waters for the girls. And not even a chance to remind the server. He did a drop and run. Another 10 minutes after that we get our snacks. The pretzels were pretty good other than they were WAY over salted. The chips and salsa came without my added guac. The chips were stale and the the salsa had to be Tostitos. Also, there wasn't nearly enough salsa or sour cream for the amount of stale chips they gave me. After our snacks were dropped off, we were never to see or hear from the server again. Literally. When it because more than obvious he wasn't coming back (nearly 30 minutes after we finished our food and our game of Yahtzee) we left cash for our bill on the table. Long story short: You won't get guac or water even if you order it. And don't even bother to think you'll get more than one beer. I would stay clear of the brewery itself and just drink their beer at other Whistler establishments. read more

Went on a brewery tour with our guide Taylor. Enjoyed grilling the Brewers with questions regarding every phase of the brewing process. Had four glasses of beer as part of the tour.

I was so happy that Whistler has a brewery! It is not too far of a drive down the highway from the Village, and is located in a very random, industrial-ish area. The brew pub is very spacious and has a great atmosphere. We tried a few different beers, and they were all delicious! The Bear Paw Honey Lager was the favorite, but the Powder Mountain Lager was good, and the flavors of the Valley Trail Chestnut Ale were amazing! We also had the best server ever. The food was alright, but as our server said, we are a brewery, not a restaurant. They a nice selection of typical pub food food, but like everything else in Whistler, it was a bit overpriced ($16 nachos!?). Nevertheless, this place is a must visit for anyone that is looking for great craft brews in a beautiful setting. This is a must visit when you are visiting Whistler. read more

Two words: Chestnut Ale. Do it. It smells so goooood and tasted great too. I didn't try out the brewery tour so I can't really speak much on that. You can get a decent glass here for about $3.50, smaller samples for $2 and a flight for $7. The Powder Mountain Lager was all right, not nearly as fantastic as the Chestnut Ale. read more

There is a lot of good beer in the Vancouver area and Whistler is some of the best. Plenty of styles to try, a decent amount of seating, and how can you go wrong with a brewery nestled into the mountains. A lot of the breweries in the Vancouver area are making good beer, but have a cold, sterile feel to them. They don't feel welcoming or like a place you would want to hang out for a long time. Whistler feels very inviting and comfortable. The staff is beyond friendly. I could easily spend all day there. You feel more like you're hanging out with friends than out at a business. read more

Very nice people here, seemed to be a very popular spot and lots of people there while we were. There's quite a bit of seating as well as a section behind the bar for souvenir type items, although the selection wasn't great in our opinion. They also had a freezer/cooler in the back so you could get some cold beer in bottles to go. They had a little menu of food as well, although we didn't eat there, it was nice they had something other than just beer. No cider so i didn't get to drink anything there but that's alright we went for Brandon naturally.. He enjoyed the IPA they had and tried a few others too. We were hoping they'd have some games or something but no such luck. read more

A brewery that's in a very convenient location..that is, close of the hostel. A days worth of riding can make a snowboarder very very thirsty. So what better way for to spend an Après than in a local brewery? Not sure which brew is for your palate? Try the flight or simply ask for a taster. Have a favorite beer? Well then fill up the cheap Growler, ey? It's enough to keep you asleep even with the elephant seal snore of your hostel roommates. read more

Whistler Brewing - Met a new friend from down under and trying a flight of brew. - Breweries Near Me - Whistler, British Columbia

Quiet location, cool mountain air, nice food options, and they brew their own beer. What's not to like? Up in Whislter for a day or more? It's a great place to relax, and feel like an in-the-woods beer experience. The location lets you forget Vancouver is just an hour away, and it relates to the breweries of the Mountains of Asheville NC nicely. As to the beer, it's decent. The food, it's decent. It's certainly not the best brewery in the greater Vancouver area, but it is one of the most enjoyable to go and have a pint at. So go, have a pint, and kick back. Enjoy the atmosphere, and brews. read more
