    This place had the perfect vibe for a drink after a hike. Service was not great and it definitely wasn't too busy. Pizza was amazing, sandwich was great, salad was not good at all. I definitely think it could have been a better overall experience, but it was okay.

    We stopped in for a flight and shared the meat lovers pizza, it was incredible! The service was quick and seamless, the atmosphere was vibrant and welcoming. They have definitely perfected beer and sours in particular! Would absolutely come back

    While here I tried the Meat Your Maker meat lovers, and a Margherita pizza, which were both amazing. We also tried the Fuzzy Peach Sour and Dead of Night IPA which I would also recommend. The service was also really really good. Lovely spot in Squamish for food and drinks!

    Excellent IPA beers. Great service also. We really enjoyed the backcountry chicken wing salt & pepper with sauce on the side. Pizza was good but could have a little more cheese in my opinion definitely recommend this place.

    We usually enjoy their beers, but our first visit to the brewery will likely be our last. We had to wait a long time at the door before anyone showed us to a table, even though there were open spots. Then, our fries took forever to arrive, and when they finally did, they were old and stale! I asked them if they can change it, and after a long wait, they brought us another fries with the same quality. To top it off, I just noticed they charged us for two fries! The whole experience was really disappointing.

Beer List for Backcountry Brewing Provided by Untappd!
  • Widowmaker

    Style: IPA - New England / Hazy

    ABV: 6.7    IBU: 50

    Our signature IPA is made in the east coast style. This style of IPA is characterized by a light malt profile with a big pulpy body that is there to compliment the intense juicy character coming from the hops. Despite the absolute truck load of hops used in this style of beer the bitterness is restrained and comes across more like that of a pale ale. In this beer, we kept the malt profile light but full and we threw in a ridiculous amount of Citra and Mosaic both in the kettle and in the dry hop to create this intense juice bomb. This beer is unfiltered and un-fined to leave as much flavour and mouthfeel behind in the finished beer as possible.

  • Trailbreaker Pale Ale

    Style: Pale Ale - American

    ABV: 5    IBU: 35

    This pale ale will likely come across more like a session IPA than most pale ales in the market. We kept the malt profile light so that the hops could shine. Copious amounts of Citra, Simcoe and Chinook were used to create a refreshingly fruity hop presence. This beer is unfiltered and un-fined to leave as much flavour and mouthfeel behind in the finished beer as possible.

  • Dead of Night Galaxy IPA

    Style: IPA - New England / Hazy

    ABV: 6.6    IBU: 25

    Hopped with Galaxy hops, this IPA beer punches through with the big dank pineapple notes that we have come to know and love from this hop.

  • Ridgerunner Pilsner

    Style: Pilsner - German

    ABV: 5    IBU: 33

    German pilsner is characteristically dry and hoppy with a nice background bitterness. Ours is a classic example of the style brewed with Pilsner malt and hopped with Blanc, Melon, Saphir and Spalt. The result is a crisp dry pilsner with a floral and spicy nose that offers a nice balance between hops and malt.

  • I'll Take You To the Candy Shop

    Style: Sour - Fruited

    ABV: 5.5    IBU: 8

    This kettle sour has been bombed with peach puree and then conditioned on a stupid amount of fuzzy peach gummies

  • I'm Not Even Supposed To Be Here Today

    Style: Sour - Fruited

    ABV: 5.5    IBU: 8

    For this beer we used an ungodly amount of tangerine drowned in an ocean of vanilla, soaked on a mountain of orange zest then smashed through a nickel sized hole filled with a fist full of coconut for that extra decadent flavour.

  • Might As Well Go For A Soda

    Style: Sour - Fruited

    ABV: 6    IBU: 8

    Cherries and cola gummies were just some of the ingredients used to make this flash from the past. It'll have you screaming for a litre o' cola... meow.

  • Maple Bay Fresh Hop IPA

    Style: IPA - New England / Hazy

    ABV: 6.5    IBU: 30

    This IPA was made exclusively with fresh Cascade and Centennial hops from Maple Bay Hop Farm. This beer is soft and crushable with a combination of citrus and grassy notes from the fresh hops.

  • Big Gulps Huh, Welp See Ya Later

    Heaps of raspberry with subtle blueberry and lemon notes will take you back to those first sips of freedom during that inaugural unsupervised rip to the mini-mart.

  • Suck It Cancer (2020-2021)

    Style: Pale Ale - American

    ABV: 5.5    IBU: 30

    Double Dry Hopped Pale Ale. A reboot of our award winning "Suck It Trebek". A portion of sales from this beer will be donated to the BC Cancer Foundation. This beer was dry hopped long and dry hopped hard with Strata, Mosaic, and Citra. The resulting beer is an absolute hop bomb of a pale ale that still remains sessionable. Cheers!

  • Pool Shower

    Style: Sour - Fruited

    ABV: 5.5    IBU: 8

    Is there anything better than starting off your day with a half gallon of kool-aid? Of course not because that's what adult men do. Plus it's low calorie and high on Vitamin C. So go for that run, shower in the pool and crush those 120oz of kool-aid big boy!

  • Mine Goes To Eleven

    In ancient times... before the dawn of history no one knows what it is or what we did. It's actually quite unbelievable but we turned up our fruit dose to 11. Why wouldn't we make ten the highest? Because we can turn it up to 11...

  • What Did the Five Fingers Say To the Face?

    Style: Sour - Fruited

    ABV: 5.5    IBU: 8

    Tropical Punch Sour Have we lost our minds? How does that tropical flavour SLAP so hard? Even when sours were fashionable, they didn't SLAP this hard... this beer is so cold blooded... Sours are a hell of a beer.
