ISLAND CRAFT, Your Guide to the Breweries of Vancouver Island, by Jon C. Stott, is a timely exploration of the vibrant and growing craft beer scene on Vancouver Island, and was the Winner of a 2020 Gourmand World Cookbook Award in Canada!
Take the ultimate beer-lover's road trip from Victoria, BC's craft beer capital, to Campbell River, visiting almost forty craft breweries and brewpubs in between. In 1961, Vancouver Island had just one brewery. In 2018, Stott visited thirty-three breweries on the island, and six more breweries were scheduled to open within the year. For each brewery or brewpub, Stott shares well-researched backstories, examines the relationships between breweries and the communities in which they operate, profiles owners and brewers, and shares tasting notes for many of the beers each place offers.
