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 Heir Apparent by Lickinghole Creek Craft Brewery at King & DufferinPepper beers aren’t usually my thing but this is an exception. Great balance to all the flavours and abv is not obvious at all. Impressive!
- Greg C. is drinking a Tripel Thread by Kensington Brewing Company at King & Dufferin11 months old. I tend to prefer my Tripels on the drier side, but this is still a pretty good one. Tart gooseberry notes cut the sweetness.
- Greg C. is drinking a Monogamy (Callista) by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinNot very familiar with Callista hops but they work well here, bringing notes of apricot, gooseberry, blueberry & a slight floral edge.
- Greg C. is drinking a S.P.A. Special Pale Ale by Wellington Brewery at King & DufferinQuite a while since I had this last & it seems to have improved. Overall character is that of an authentic malt-forward UK pale ale.
- Greg C. is drinking a Farmhouse Dark by Stack Brewing at The Craft Brasserie & GrilleSharp & sour up fromt. Bit of caramel malt but not much else behind. Thin body struggles to carry the flavour. OK but needs refinement.
