Red Truck Beer Company

10 Best Craft Beer Spots in Vancouver | Condé Nast Traveler

"The Red Truck Beer Company is a slick operation, from its aluminum-and-wood color scheme, to its branding: an old red truck as a nostalgic mascot. A stainless-steel countertop and a veritable backline of gleaming beer vats also imbue the space with a kind of clinical beauty. Taps changed regularly; at last count, there were 14 different beers. From the light and fresh Elderberry Saison to the high-alcohol Totality Imperial Stout (at 8.5% ABV—sip slowly!), this place has all the bases covered. To the side of the tasting room there’s a small stage, so expect local solo acts to pull their fan base in on Friday and Saturday nights. In summer, however, things get serious when Red Truck hosts its Truck Stop Concert Series, which in the past has featured everything from country music singer Jon Pardi to Australian electronica darlings Cut Copy. During these events, a large stage is set up, and Red Truck becomes an outdoor concert hall—or at least their parking lot does." - Guy Saddy
