VANCOUVER, BC – The Georgia Straight reports that Squamish-based brewpub and brewery Howe Sound Brewing is set to open a second location in Vancouver, although no brewing will be taking place on site.
Devil’s Elbow Ale & Whiskey House – named after after Howe Sound’s Devil’s Elbow India Pale Ale – will be located at 562 Beatty St., the address currently occupied by Belgian restaurant Chambar which is closing next weekend and moving down the block.
Trevor Magee, vice president and general manager and Howe Sound, gave the Straight a few details about the new venture:
“It’s going to be a pretty basic, rustic ale house,” said Magee. The restaurant will not brew beer on-site, but it will serve a wide range of Howe Sound Brewing’s brands. It will also offer more than just Howe Sound beer on tap.
“We’re going to showcase emerging craft breweries in the city,” Magee said, and that includes local nanobreweries. The restaurant will carry whiskey products from local craft distilleries.
If all goes as planned, Devil’s Elbow Ale & Whiskey House will open on October 1st.

- Greg C. is drinking an I Swear Sugarpants, It Was Your Idea 2019 by Sawdust City Brewing Co. at King & DufferinNot sure why there are separate annual entries for this beer, but I’ll go with it. Has cocoa, cinnamon, vanilla & cream notes as promised.
- Greg C. is drinking a Low Voltage by Powerhouse Brewing Company at King & DufferinClean & simple golden ale. Needs a bit more body to be a true cream ale, IMO, but still a well-crafted thirst-quencher.
- Greg C. is drinking a Ryevalry Roggenbier by Mill Street Brewery at King & DufferinFruity esters and sweet malt dominate, with earthy/peppery rye providing a nice backnote. Hint of banana bread as well. Nicely done.
- Greg C. is drinking a Chocolate Cheesecake Milkshake Stout by Rochester Mills Beer Co. at King & DufferinThe flavour delivers what the name promises. And like most cheesecake it’s too sweet for me personally. But I can still see the attraction.
- Greg C. is drinking an Union Pearson Ale by Henderson Brewing Co at King & DufferinRecently reformulated & better for it. Strong citrus character, bit of pine, malt backnote. Reminds me of classic US IPAs & that’s good.
