Every season in Vancouver offers something unique and different. So we created our Limited Release beers to complement the best things about every season. We tend to brew them in smaller quantities so that we can refine their flavour, and while you may see a few in your liquor store, many are available only at our brewery on Granville Island.
Remember – like many of the finest things about our city, they’re only available in limited quantities. And just like a Vancouver season, you have to seize the moment while it lasts, because they’re gone before you know it. The good thing is that each new season ushers in a new exciting taste from Granville Island Brewing.

Ginger Beer combines water, malt, hops and yeast with fresh ginger root to create a refreshing taste with the flavour and aroma of ginger and a bit of that spicy warmth you can only get from Jamaica. Enjoy Ginger Beer on its own or paired with spicy foods like Jamiacan Jerk or milder foods like sushi.
