This is not your average beer show. You won't find consistent beer reviews or the latest opinion gossip about the industry. The Cascadian Beer Podcast is about the people behind the local breweries in the Pacific Northwest. Each episode is dedicated to a single brewery; we profile their history, how they started and their place in the local community. Cascadia is a bio-region in the Pacific Northwest which is made up of the US States of Washington & Oregon, as well as the Canadian province of British Columbia. This is an area that helped kickstart the craft beer industry in North America and has seen tremendous growth in recent years.

episode 90: House of Funk - North Vancouver, British Columbia
There is a spot in the lower mainland that has seen a major shift to an entertainment district in recent years, and that spot is located in North Vancouver. Located on the traditional unceded territories of the Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh. The brewery House of Funk opened their doors a little over two years ago after seeing a gap in the British Columbia market. They have seen major growth and have even developed a sister brand to them. I sat down with owner Darren Hollett.
episode 91: Alberni Brewing Company - Port Alberni, British Columbia
It's always a great feeling escaping the city and visiting the communities around the province. I've traveled to Vancouver Island to visit Alberni Brewing Company, a new brewery that recently opened up in Port Alberni. I sat down with co-owner Heather Welsh.
episode 92: Ace Brewing Company - Courtenay, British Columbia
Breweries can be a strong focal point for any community. Many of them align their name with the characteristics or features of their surroundings. Today I find myself mid-island on Vancouver Island in the town of Courtenay, British Columbia. Located on the traditional, unceded territories of the K’ómoks First Nation.
Ace Brewing opened its doors in 2019, and is proud of their Vintage Aviation theme reflecting the history of the Comox Valley and Canadian Air Force...
