The taps will be flowing in Squamish in 2015.
Two beer-themed events are invading town in the coming months, and both events promise to be a beer lover’s dream.
First up is the third annual Tap Takeover at the Howe Sound Brew Co. in downtown Squamish on March 28.
This year will be the biggest yet, with a total of 26 guest breweries invading Squamish. That’s up from 17 in 2013 and the 20 last year.
Some of the breweries coming to Squamish this year include: Red Truck Beer, Parallel 49, Central City, Steamworks and many more. It all gets underway at 11 a.m. and lasts all day.
Those wanting to party earlier can do so on March 27, as The Whiskeydicks are performing a no-cover pre-party. The River and The Road hit the stage on March 28 during the Tap Takeover event.
