The craft beer industry has seen tremendous growth since the late 1990's. Our beginnings in Canadian beer started with the staple beers like Molson, Labatt and Kokanee. As small town adventurists began opening breweries and offering an alternative, the explosion began. This can be attributed to a few different factors, from an increased demand from Canadians for locally produced bevies to the creativity of Canadian brewers and their adventurous approach to brewing.
An undeniable factor contributing to this success is that our breweries are producing more and more award-winning craft beers. From six-pack staples to seasonal brews, we now have more variety than ever when it comes to choosing Canadian beer. The amount of brew pubs in neighborhoods across the country make it more accessible than ever.
