Sunshine Coast Ale Trail
Experience craft beer and coastal culture at its finest here on the Sunshine Coast.
The Sunshine Coast is the proud home to some of BC's most distinctive breweries: Townsite Brewing in Powell River, Batch 44 Brewery & Kitchen in Sechelt, and Tapworks Brewing Company, The 101 Brewhouse + Distillery, and Persephone Brewing in Gibsons. These breweries and cideries have well-appointed tasting rooms that welcome visitors to experience the distinct flavours and craft beer culture of the Sunshine Coast. Visit Townsite’s re-purposed federal building that sits in a recognized National Historic District, Persephone’s “beer farm” that’s surrounded by towering hop vines and coastal Douglas fir forest, and more.
