community on the east coast of Vancouver Island, which includes the municipalities of Courtenay, Comox and Cumberland, has some enviable assets. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mountwashington.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mount Washington Alpine Resort<\/a> is a mere half hour\u2019s drive from downtown and sits on the doorstep of BC\u2019s first provincial park, <a href=\"http:\/\/bcparks.ca\/explore\/parkpgs\/strath_wm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Strathcona<\/a>, a rugged wilderness of mountains, glacial lakes, alpine meadows and ancient forests. Clear rivers like the Puntledge, Browns and Tsolum meander from one swimming hole to the next through forest and farmland. And the deliciously diverse output of the local farming community is on full display at the <a href=\"https:\/\/bcfarmersmarkettrail.com\/market\/comox-valley-farmers-market-saturday\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Comox Valley Farmers\u2019 Market<\/a> from early spring to late fall. That\u2019s where you can fill a basket with, among many other tasty edibles, Windhover Farm blueberries, farm-raised bison from Island Bison Ranch, Big D\u2019s Bees honey, and fresh produce from Green Gate Farm, Heiwa Farm and dozens of other small-scale, family operations. An ever-expanding trail network has put the Comox Valley on the must-ride list for mountain bikers, hikers and active travellers from throughout BC and beyond, never mind the white sand beaches and islands that are a short boat trip from the Comox Marina.<\/p>\n<p>However, for a long time there was something missing from this idyllic picture. It was like da Vinci\u2019s Mona Lisa, but without the reticent smile. Though craft beers had started appearing on local taps some time ago, the cult of Lucky Lager still had roots as deep as an old growth cedar. Craft breweries and the convivial beer culture that surrounds them remained something mysterious and exotic, a phenomenon from distant lands. Six years ago, that changed. Today, if I wanted to, I could literally walk out my front door on a summer afternoon with an inner tube under my arm and five minutes later be floating down the Puntledge River. Then, a half hour or so after launching my tube, I would be flip-flopping my way to the <a href=\"https:\/\/bcaletrail.ca\/breweries\/gladstone-brewing-co\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gladstone Brewing Company<\/a>, one of five breweries in the Comox Valley, for a crisp Belgian Single on the outdoor patio <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014<\/span> a beer tourist in my hometown.<\/p>\n<p>Daniel Sharratt, co-founder of Gladstone, was living on Gladstone Avenue in Victoria when he and his family uprooted to the Comox Valley with a business plan for a brewery in a town without one yet.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were driving down 4th Street and saw a For Lease sign in the window,\u201d Sharratt says about the inviting and vacant space at the corner of 4th and Cliff Avenue that was an auto mechanic, among many other things, in its former lives.<\/p>\n<p>The corner lot building seemed tailor made for a brewery, with a solid concrete floor and tall ceilings. It also had the right dose of industrial chic, with an art deco touch of glass bricks in one corner and ample space for outdoor seating. Sharratt and his co-managing wife Alexandra Stephanson decided to stay true to the building\u2019s history; old oil cans, filters and other automotive relics dominate the industrial d\u00e9cor.<\/p>\n<p>I sidle up to the taps for a sleeve of Gladstone\u2019s signature Belgian Single, an uncomplicated ale with a subtle floral hoppiness that is Sharratt\u2019s personal recipe from the time when he was home brewing by night and crunching numbers by day as a government economist.<\/p>\n<p>Sunshine floods the patio as do lunchtime patrons, noshing on burgers and mountainous plates of fries. Head brewer Tak Guenette, who\u2019s been with Gladstone almost since the start, keeps their flagship beers, including Belgian Single, Pilsner and Hazy Pale Ale in the daily mix, while rotating in seasonally appropriate brews, with a refreshing K\u00f6lsch in the summer season and Czech dark Lager and Porter for the colder months.<\/p>\n<p>Almost as soon as Gladstone opened for biz in late 2014, they were slammed with patrons like a fast-moving tide in the Courtenay Estuary. It seemed all someone needed to do was brew some beer and hire a guy with a beard and tattoos to work the taps. Locals finally had a place with natural character to quench their thirst for locally brewed craft beers. In truth, Gladstone had been engaged in an informal race with the folks at Cumberland Brewing Company (CBC) to be the first craft brewery to plant its flag in the Comox Valley; Cumberland won the sprint by a mere couple of weeks.<\/p>\n","path_photo":[{"ID":15820,"id":15820,"title":"Gladstone Brewing Company on the BC Ale

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After a 10-minute winding drive up Cumberland Road toward the mountains, that\u2019s my next stop. A small fortune in mountain bikes is padlocked to the fence outside the <a href=\"https:\/\/bcaletrail.ca\/breweries\/cumberland-brewing-co\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cumberland Brewing Co&#8217;s <\/a>patio. Craft beer and bikes seem to be a marriage made in heaven. A group of four women, faces speckled with mud from the trail, raise post-ride pints and pick over a charcuterie platter. Though it&#8217;s early afternoon, a steady stream of mountain bikers rolls up to the complimentary bike wash station before entering the brewery. Like most entrepreneurs in Cumberland, which forms one C in the three C&#8217;s of the Comox Valley trio \u2014 Courtenay, Comox, Cumberland \u2014 lifestyle and not work drew CBC co-owner Darren Adam here. In 2014, while living on Royston Road near Cumberland, he was commuting in his private 1946 Taylorcraft to and from jobs wrenching on airplanes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;I sort of threw it out there that I was looking for something different,&#8221; recalls Adam, who is originally from Calgary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soon after he met Mike Tymchuk, an entrepreneur also from Calgary who years earlier had cheffed and brewed beer at Spinnakers in Victoria, before founding Wild Rose Brewery in his home city. After moving to Vancouver Island, he and his wife Caroline opened <a href=\"https:\/\/www.riderspizza.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Riders Pizza<\/a> on Cumberland&#8217;s historic main street, Dunsmuir Avenue, and were incubating plans for a local brewery. CBC was born. When a suitable space became available next to Riders, they started swinging hammers. By December 2014, they were serving their first pints.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I sit with Adam at the bar and order a pint of Forest Fog, a refreshing, citrusy American Pale Wheat Ale that is one of the bustling brewery\u2019s more popular taps.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Initially, for every litre of Forest Fog sold, CBC donated 25\u00a2 to the Cumberland Community Forest Society and the ongoing efforts to buy and preserve forestland around Cumberland. They crested over $90,000 in direct cash and fundraising assistance with the society and are very proud of what they accomplished. It\u2019s another example of civic pride and community activism that defines Cumberland. There was even a pay-it-forward board in the CBC bar where you could scribble the name of your sweetie or your favourite bike mechanic along with a pre-paid tab. This has been suspended due to COVID.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instinct told the CBC founders that the village was ready for a drinking establishment like this, a social, community-minded brewpub without walls covered in television screens. They were right. CBC was just as instantly slammed by active-living hopheads as was Gladstone. Now, between Cumberland Brewing, Riders, and a small market garden in a vacant lot next to the pizzeria, this mini beer-based business empire employs some 70 full and part-time staff.<\/span><\/p>\n","path_photo":[{"ID":20992,"id":20992,"title":"Cumberland Brewing

Last year JD Wetherspoon celebrated female brewers and Gabiniewicz was one of only five women to get the nod.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI\u2019m pretty floored,\u201d Gabiniewicz says. \u201cThere\u2019s such a rich history of brewing in the UK and I\u2019m really proud of being part of it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gabiniewicz brewed her signature Estuary Session Ale, accented with hand-harvested spruce tips that gives the 4.5 % ABV beer a light grapefruit and hoppy bitterness. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s a mild citrusy brew that goes down as easy as a stroll along the beach at Goose Spit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI like session ales because I like to have a few,\u201d Gabiniewicz tells me. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That\u2019s about as simple an argument for session ales as you can make. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Walker was excited to have one of their flagship ales showcased on a big stage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;We were super chuffed to have Land &amp; Sea beer available across the UK,\u201d Walker says. \u201cIt\u2019s a big deal for us. We\u2019re a little community-based brewery that celebrates where we live.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One way he celebrates community is by incentivizing patrons to get out their cars and ride their bikes with the ABV (anything but vehicles) Club. People who pedal to Land &amp; Sea are eligible to enter a draw for a monthly prize. And for every entry, the brewery donates a quarter to a select charity.<\/span><\/p>\n","path_photo":[{"ID":13264,"id":13264,"title":"Land & Sea Brewing Company on the BC Ale

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Making Comox cool again has been a community entrepreneurial effort. Over on Church Street, near the intersection with Comox Avenue, there\u2019s a mix of complementary businesses that proves there\u2019s much more to Comox these days than golf and pickle ball.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a trifecta of tastiness, you\u2019ll find <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastrangecannabis.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Coast Range Cannabis<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/churchstreetbakery.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Church Street Wood-fired Bakery<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/churchsttaphouse.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Church St. Taphouse<\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was five years of jumping through permitting and financing hoops from the time when rumours of a tap house started circulating like a fall fever to when the doors finally opened last summer. For hopheads, it was similar to the faithful waiting for the completion of a Catholic cathedral in the Middle Ages \u2014 a gruelling test of patience and perseverance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From sour gose and bitters to Belgian tripels and British porters, Church St\u2019s more than two dozen taps provide a sweeping snapshot of BC\u2019s vibrant craft brew landscape. The list also includes a frequently revolving \u201ccharity tap,\u201d the proceeds of which support an organization of the brewer\u2019s choice. I opt for a taste of the Royal Canadian Marine Search and Rescue charity tap, Ace Brewing&#8217;s Drop Tank India Blonde Ale. At a hefty 6.7% and 40 IBU, this meal in a glass is the definition of a non-sessionable beer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With its post-and-beam design, tall ceilings, big windows and spacious patio, this beer hall makes an impression. The aesthetic is self-described \u201cindustrial marine,\u201d a nod to Comox\u2019s close ties to the sea. Old prints of the late French underwater exploring legend Jacques Cousteau adorn the walls, along with a surrealistic print of a sheep in a submarine. In the men\u2019s restroom there\u2019s a beauty poster-sized print of an obscure photo showing John Denver strumming his guitar while busting his gut with laughter next to a coyly smiling Cousteau. The d\u00e9cor works, in an offbeat way. As the after-work crowd starts to fill the stools, I exit onto Church Street.<\/span><\/p>\n","path_photo":[{"ID":21201,"id":21201,"title":"Church Street Taphouse - Comox - A

addition to the Comox Valley beer scene, I swing past Comox Marina. It\u2019s quiet. Fishermen putter on their boats, engaged in the endless toil of maintenance and upkeep before the next commercial opening. A gentle breeze makes the sailboat mast stays whistle. My attention is drawn by a sign scrawled in black marker on a sheet of cardboard advertising albacore tuna for ale. I stroll down the dock and buy a couple of pieces for the BBQ this evening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Two minutes later, I park outside Comox Centre Mall. I\u2019ll admit, the words \u201cshopping mall\u201d are not part of my regular vocab. In fact, I try to avoid them at all costs, but the Comox Mall, once a dated relic from the 1970s, has undergone a major facelift to the point where it might even qualify for some sort of extreme shopping mall makeover award. New Tradition, tucked into a corner across from Benino Gelato, is at the vanguard of this shopping mall re-imagination.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> The Comox Valley was already an enviable sea-to-sky playground of outdoor recreation, creativity, and soulful local food; now that the community-minded craft brew revolution has taken hold, the picture is complete.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>Note: since the time of publishing, New Tradition Brewing has changed hands and reopened as <a href=\"http:\/\/bcaletrail.ca\/breweries\/rad-brewing-co\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rad Brewing<\/a>. Part of that change was a renovation of the tasting room to add a kitchen and updating and enlarging the patio space. Expect good food, including street-style tacos, along with the high-quality lineup of beer brewed on-site. These folks know what the local consumer likes when it comes to beer \u2014 after all, they have been running the nearby Church St Taphouse for a few years already.<\/em><\/p>\n","path_photo":[{"ID":47275,"id":47275,"title":"363335992_306349815113429_1690946908448884840_n","filename":"363335992_306349815113429_1690946908448884840_n.jpg","filesize":338516,"url":"https:\/\/ef5pdbk7uqr.exactdn.com\/app\/uploads\/2021\/06\/363335992_306349815113429_1690946908448884840_n.jpg?strip=all&lossy=1&quality=90&webp=90&avif=80&sharp=1&ssl=1","link":"https:\/\/bcaletrail.ca\/363335992_306349815113429_1690946908448884840_n\/","alt":"Rad
