E-Malt.com News article: Canada, BC: Nine new craft breweries to open in Vancouver in 2013

The recent relaxation of liquor laws in Vancouver, British Columbia, appears to have launched a craft beer renaissance, International Meetings Review reported on May, 13.

Nine micro-breweries are scheduled to open in 2013, following on the heels of three new-to-market breweries in 2012.

East Vancouver’s appropriately called the Brewery Creek district, is known for the operations that flourished there over a century ago will be home to many of the new companies, some offering tasting rooms.

In addition, new beer parlors opening up around the city include Tap & Barrel, Bitter Tasting Room, Portland Craft and a soon-to-open 140-tap pub at Olympic Village's historic Salt Building.
