Fortside Brewing Company

When it's 95°+ outside, a brewery that allows dogs inside is a must and this the only one in the Vancouver area we could find! All of the beers we tried were hits!

It's a tough one to rank. The beer service was really slow but only 1 guy working. I locked the Mexican lager and the IPA I had and the taco truck serves up some pretty good food. If the beer service was a bit faster I think this would be a 4. Loved the nice outdoor space and a good amount of room inside. A place I will definitely try to get back to and see if this was a one off on service.

What a treat. I’ve seen this place many times but never taken the time to stop. Today, my wife wanted to stop before we went grocery shopping and I was pleasantly surprised. Very cool hard wood decor and some cool vintage Vancouver photos on the wall. I like how the garage door opens the inside up and creates a nice breeze on a warm afternoon.. but this is really about the beer. Good selection from some very session-able beers, to stronger pours. A great variety of ipa’s to boot. Fortunately this is close enough to home we will be back again very soon. The taco truck was delicious but a bit spendy.. I guess everything is getting more expensive but the burrito did feed both my wife and I! Can’t wait to come back.

Doleski is a living legend in the brewing industry. A must stop for fans of great beer, chill atmosphere and quirky beer names. Plus the (2024) Mexican cuisine truck is off the charts.

Really good beers! The taco truck was a perfect addition!

This was a nice brewery. Their beers were good and they also had a couple spiked slushees. The taco truck outside had some delicious seafood tacos.

As a Vancouver local, born and raised in the PNW, I can say that the Orange Whip Hazy IPA is a refreshing addition to a rainy day. If you can't handle the rainy days, just have an orange whip. Thanks, John Candy.

Taco Tuesday is always great with Fortside and Taco Spaceship!

company catered lunch was good bbq with coleslaw brisket ribs and pulled beef for sandwich and good beer

Excellent!

Fantastic local brewery with a great taco truck. Family friendly & pet friendly too!

Impressive variety of beer styles on type . The queen of tarts wild sour was as good as any Belgium sours. The bourbon barrel brown ale had a very nice boozy taste but not over powered. Some beers are available to go, but unfortunately not the sour. Industrial warehouse vibe, friendly service. Indoor and outdoor seating. Taco food cart next to them looked very good.

Quick trip over the bridge to a Mecca of beers, Fortside being one of them. All kinds of styles that are spot on! Food cart out front and Fortside have specials on certain days of the week.

Excellent dark beer.

Best beers!
