I visited VIB on new year's eve for the first time. The location was easy to find with ample parking. The taproom was spacious and comfortable. More importantly, the beers are excellent. Cool merch selection. Definitely a must do brewery.

Like your Island Lager ? a bunch.The can wrap is wonky, distorted and makes the whole feeling a bit less than desirable in my honest humble opinion, I understand that margins are tight and the big boys run the show, but if the tactile feel is quality then the total experience will be quality. The shrink-wrap is detrimental to your beer.It’s still better than the wraps that insulate your hand and make it “feel” like you’re holding a warm beer. Those are very strange. Like just get a beer coozy, then. Right?Don’t judge a beer by its cover, it’s a good lager ? in dollar store clothes.

Tried to contact about the drink. “Island Life” All flavours are absolutely horrible. I called customer service when I bought the case and tried a sip of every flavour and could not put any of them down. Absolutely disgusting. No response from island brewing and been over a month so I’m done and here’s my review for customer service and care to attention for customer satisfaction. Here’s a pic of one of the flavours but ALL are horrible.

Delicious flight that the bartender threw together for me because I wasn’t sure what to order. Great vibe and absolutely lovely space. Would absolutely visit again.

One of my favorite breweries in Canada. Tap room is really nice and the staff are super welcoming.

Great beer selection, lovely staff and a great little patio that is dog friendly.
Very nice tasting room, including a patio with some shade. Wide range of beers, but unfortunately none of the five that we tried were noteworthy. Not a bad place to go for a beer, but not top of the list for any beer enthusiasts looking for something different.

Came here over the Easter long weekend with some friends. The space is a little smaller that it looks from the outside. They did have an outdoor patio but it wasn’t open yet. Looked like a great spot on a nice sunny day! Lots of great beer on tap and take away cans too. They even had games that you could play. Overall it was a great time!

Stopped in for a quick beer after visiting Butchart Gardens. The Hefeweizen was great. Asked for a lunch recommendation and the young man working there offered what was a terrific choice. Moon Underwater Brewery and Distillery. Thanks for the great food recommendation and the terrific beer at VI Brewing!
