OUR HISTORY

WHEN WE BEGAN WORKING ON THE IDEA OF STARTING A BREWERY, IT WAS A LONG SHOT TO SAY THE LEAST. SMALL, HYPER LOCAL PRODUCTION BREWERIES WERE A RARITY IN BC AT THE TIME AND OUR SURFY PRIORITIES HAD, IN NO WAY, PREPARED US FOR THE COMPLEX WORLD OF CRAFT BEER. BUT, ARMED WITH ZERO EXPERIENCE AND A COMICALLY SHOESTRING BUDGET, WE WENT FOR IT ANYWAY. TOFINO BREWING CO. OPENED IN APRIL 2011 WITH TWO BASIC IDEAS IN MIND: TO BREW GREAT BEER AND BE A POSITIVE ADDITION TO THE TOWN WE LOVED. OVER THE PAST DECADE PLUS, TOFINO BREWING HAS GROWN ORGANICALLY INTO THE LOCAL FIXTURE IT IS TODAY. WE ARE INCREDIBLY PROUD TO BE PART OF THE TOFINO EXPERIENCE FOR LOCALS AND VISITORS ALIKE AND HOPE TO CONTINUE TO BREW BEER FOR THE COMMUNITY FOR YEARS TO COME.

BREW-LOSOPHY

Our brewing philosophy here revolves around finding excellence in natural simplicity. We strive for the highest quality, consistency, and reliability through traditional craft brewing methodology. We aim to brew creative, adventurous variations on classic styles that can grow to be your go-to favorites as opposed to one-and-done novelty offerings. We strive to brew beer that reflects the incredibly unique experience of life here on the coast.

SUPERNATURAL

Did you know our Spruce Tree Ale is conditioned with fresh, locally harvested spruce tips? As a result, this beer is a seasonal offering and only becomes available in Spring and Summer. Another reason why this beer is always fresh and juicy.
