Welcome to CANYON BREWING! đŸ» Our second stop on the tour is the rapidly growing and picturesque Canyon Brewing, known for its friendly and inviting atmosphere. Nestled above the Shotover River and below the historic Edith Cavell Bridge, Canyon Brewing stands out for its commitment to local sourcing, using a third of its grain from the farm of one of the owners. The spent grain is then returned to the farm for animal feed, emphasising their sustainable practices.

At Canyon Brewing, guests will enjoy an interactive tour of the facility, gaining insight into the beer-making process. Meanwhile, Oli will be crafting exceptional beers to complement your lunch. Canyon Brewing has expanded its operations to include 2 separate breweries: one at the original site and another in the Cardrona Valley.

In addition to their seasonal offerings, Canyon Brewing is renowned for its popular Canyon Gold Lager, a smooth and easy-drinking choice. Their Vacation Hazy Pale Ale and Cardrona Hazy IPA are also among their best-selling selections.

Experience craft beer at its finest with us at Canyon Brewing! 🌿đŸș
