After checking
out of our hotel at Whistler we grabbed some breakfast and were on the road. To
avoid the long weekend traffic we stopped in at Function Junction to check out
Coast Mountain Brewing. Just steps away
from Whistler Brewing Co.
It was only day
7 of them being open so the beer selection was limited to 2, Field Guide Ale
and Indian Session Ale. But 4 more are in the tanks and will be ready by the
time you or I get back there.
With their
limited stock Coast Mountain asked a couple of their friends to help out until
they could get on their feet ! It’s a
great idea for the locals who are not going to make it out of Whistler to
sample some of the other brews available in the greater Vancouver area.
Their
guest taps were: Dageraad’s Burnabarian (Burnaby). Steel and Oak (New
Westminster), Smoked Hefe and Field House (Abbotsford), Salted Bark Porter. Not
available for growler fills.
Their tasting
room is cozy. Complete with a fire place, and a large window to view the
brewing tanks. Sit up at the bar, or grab a spot at the giant cedar picnic
bench.
It's a must
visit stop on any trip to the whistler area.
