The BC Ale Trail

Howe Sound Brewing is a pioneer brewery in Squamish, British Columbia, which has helped create the thriving scene that exists there now. The brewery is famous for its extensive range of styles, including its unique, one-litre "potstopper" bottles with re-closable swing caps. You can sample some of those beers in the popular brewpub, which also serves food and hosts local musicians. The brewery also operates a restaurant next to the pub, as well as the Howe Sound Inn.

Howe Sound’s Troller Bay Ale is a contemporary re-creation of the first craft beer brewed in Canada at the Horseshoe Bay Brewery in 1982. That beer was brewed by Frank Appleton and John Mitchell to be served in the Troller Pub, which Mitchell managed. Mitchell also helped build Spinnakers, Canada’s first brewpub, in Victoria in 1984, and later helped design Howe Sound’s brewery.
