CRAFT Beer Market Vancouver

100+ beers on tap!

""CRAFT Beer Market" in Vancouver is my favourite place to sip a beer, relax and hang out with friends with one of the 140 beers on tap and some Maui ribs."

Craft beer market has been my favourite place to sip a beer, relax and hang out with my friends. This place is hip and has a very relaxed attitude.

It's located near the Science world station, just a fifteen-minute sky train ride from downtown. If you visit this place, a quick walk along the sea wall from Science world to the Olympic village is always relaxing, and occasionally you can see dragon boat teams or kayaks.

With over 100 beers on tap (140 last time I checked), I always have an excuse to go grab a beer (Erdinger Dunkel being my favourite) here and eat some Maui ribs with my co-workers or my friends. They also have wine on tap.

Tip - If its your birthday, they give you a discount equal to your age. This place is always busy and the usual wait time is 45 minutes. Please call them and reserve a spot in advance. They have good specials on local craft beer during happy hours.
