In 1995, when Steamworks Brewing Company first took hold of their historic Gastown brewpub location, they discovered that the building had a rare steam heat system. A remnant from forward thinkers of a century past.
Steamworks Brewing Company brewmaster had only read of steam powered brewing, but had never seen a functional steam brewery. These are very rare indeed. They ventured forth, experimented, and created a one-of-a-kind steam generated brewery. The only one in Canada. To their pleasure, they found their test brews to be distinctively fresh and flavourful. For nearly 20 years, beer aficionados have been migrating to the Steamworks Brewpub for a taste of these unconventional beers.
In 2013 Steamworks Brewing Company opened a brewery and taproom at 3845 William Street, Burnaby, which only intensified their dedication to producing distinct and delicious beers.
Bottling, Kegging and Canning Tallboys, they're still brewing with the Power of Steam.
