Smithers Brewing

Brewery

About

When long-time friends Adin Bennett and Blaine Estby followed their dream and opened a brewery in their hometown of Smithers, the aptly named Smithers Brewing quickly made an impact in BC’s northern beer scene. 

Constructed from timber and backed by views of Hudson Bay Mountain, the purpose-built brewery boasts a regular rotation of 10 pours in the tap room, all showcasing the creativity of head brewer Cam McKeigan. Visitors could easily spend an afternoon in the spacious tasting room, sipping West Coast-style craft beers like the popular Flower Power Sour—a bright red, kettle-soured ale flavoured with hibiscus, rosehips, elderflower, and chamomile. 

Smithers Brewing also prides itself on its unique partnerships. Case in point? Four of the brewery’s offerings feature artwork representing the seasons of the Skeena Valley, courtesy of famed local Indigenous artist Roy Henry Vickers.
