VANCOUVER, BC – Following a year of construction and renovations, the new Vancouver location of CRAFT Beer Market opened yesterday in the historic Salt Building in the city’s Olympic Village.
With 13,000 square feet and 400 seats, this second location of CRAFT – following the first in Calgary, and soon to joined by a third in Edmonton – is one of the largest beer-focused restaurants in Canada. It also features what is believed to be the country’s most extensive draught beer selection, with more than 140 beers on tap, including around 50 from British Columbia craft breweries.
A recent post on Vancouver news and culture website Straight.com has more details about CRAFT, including several photos of the impressive looking space. Additional information is also available on the CRAFT Vancouver website and Facebook page.

- Greg C. is drinking a Cider by Tawse Winery at King & DufferinA simple but pleasant cider with a slight floral note and a clean & fresh finish. A well made crowd-pleaser.
- Greg C. is drinking a Wizard Wolf (Mosaic/Loral) by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinHazy, juicy, dank & green - yup, it’s a Wizard Wolf. Mosaic hops are obvious, not as sure about Loral as I’m not too familiar with them.
- Greg C. is drinking a Switchboard Session IPA by Muddy York Brewing Co. at King & DufferinWhile the cranky old man in me would prefer less haze, I can’t find much else to fault in this. Lots of flavour with lowish abv - all good!
- Greg C. is drinking a Porch Pirate by Big Rock Brewery at Liberty Commons at Big Rock BreweryNot as big & juicy as most NEIPAs, but still sufficiently tropical with good balance. Sometimes a bit of subtlety is appreciated.
- Greg C. is drinking a Monogamy (HBC 522) by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinCitrus notes up front, herbal backnote with odd hint of cherry candy. An interesting hop strain, hope to try more beers brewed with it.
