Relatively few travellers venture north of Whistler on the Sea to Sky Highway. I\u2019d always wanted to explore the Pemberton Valley and beyond, so I continued my <\/span>beer-hiking trip from Kelowna<\/span><\/a> to the town of Lillooet. The Fraser River carves through rugged mountain terrain here, hours from the nearest big city. It was a wild, yet welcoming place to pull off Highway 99 for some local suds.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lillooet Brewing Company<\/span><\/h2>\n

New in September 2022, Lillooet Brewing<\/a> wasn\u2019t yet open during my trip. Co-owner Sam Quinlan invited me to stop by the brewery for a tour. I was greeted by the sweet smell of a stout brewing when I arrived, and brewer Sacha Bordas took some time away from the brewhouse to show me around.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
