One of the originals on the island. This Brewery sells 80% of it's beer on the island and is one of the biggest. You can get in and out of their tasting room quickly and probably within 30 minutes. Great for a fast sample flight. Recently bought by Muskoka, so you soon see their beer out east. Stop by Saturdays for a Vancouver Island Brewery tour. Top Victoria Brewery Tour.
