The 7th annual meat and beer festival, Brewery & The Beast, returns Sunday, July 28, 2019.
Located at Concord Pacific Place (180 Pacific Boulevard), from 1 pm – 4pm, attendees will be able to try unique dishes prepared by leading chefs from Vancouver, Whistler and the Lower Mainland with ingredients sourced from local and regional producers.
New this Year
Unique to this year, The Phillips Brewing Company will be highlighting the adventurous side of beer with a satellite pouring station where two new craft beers, developed exclusively for Brewery & The Beast Vancouver, will be showcased.
Also new to this year’s festival are participating restaurants Pourhouse, Tableau Bar + Bistro, Lil’ Ronnie’s Beachside BBQ (Tofino) Bauhaus, and Bartholomew, a new restaurant opening in Yaletown, with more new restaurants to be announced.
Although Brewery & The Beast has traditionally been a meat-forward festival, the event has integrated new partnerships this year to ensure seafood and local produce are also highlighted. Guests will notice a few more proteins sourced from the Salish Sea, as well as fresh fruits and a few interesting vegetable-focused dishes.
Additional Highlights
Returning favourites include Boulevard Kitchen, Burdock & Co, Maenam, Medina Cafe and Royal Dinette. In total, this year’s festival will welcome more than 60 of the region’s top chefs and restaurants.
Additional event highlights will include live music by Electric Timber Co. with special guests, the 32 tap “Gypsy Wagon” from the Phillips Brewing Co, Left Field Cider, and wine from producers local to BC, as well as kombucha tea and specialty coffee options.
