Nanaimo’s newest: White Sails Brewing

Nanaimo has a new brewery as of late 2015. White Sails Brewing is located close to the ferry terminal in what I would guess is downtown Nanaimo.  I headed over on the ferry with my bike to check the brewery out.

The brewery is located in what used to be a neighbourhood pub across for the Maffeo Sutton Park. The tasting room is really striking, with lots of great timber accents and a nice big fireplace.  When I was there, they had 7 different beers to sample or fill growlers with. Three of their core beers are sold in bombers also.

They have a patio in the summer. The look of the place reminds me of photos of German beer halls.  Click through for more photos.
