North Shore Craft Beer Week
While craft beer continues to steadily rise in popularity throughout Canada, the North Shore’s craft beer scene has absolutely exploded in recent years, welcoming a new wave of microbreweries, tasting rooms and of course, delicious craft beer. North Shore Craft Beer Week aims to celebrate local brews with a series of events that showcase exactly what North Shore beer is all about.
Let’s just say... if you love craft beer, you better make your way to the North Shore this October.
