Nelson Brewing Company

Nelson Brewing Company Independently Owned Craft Brewery
(327)

Since its inception in 1991, the Nelson Brewing Company has been dedicated to producing all natural, traditional, full-flavoured ale and delicious beer. In 2006 we decided to let the brewery evolve to an even more natural state, and by October of that year, we were granted Certified Organic status. People have been brewing organically for over 6000 years; the current practice of large-scale indust

rial farming with synthetic fertilizers and pesticides is an aberration of traditional farming, and therefore, brewing practices. Choosing organic production is also in keeping with the spirit of our hometown of Nelson, a laid-back, progressive community nestled in the heart of the Kootenays. With limitless backcountry skiing and hiking at our back door, as well as a host of other outdoor activities year-round, brewing an organic beer in Nelson just seems like the natural thing to do.

What makes a place feel like home?

It’s the people you meet, the places you love, and those little local spots you find yourself coming back to again and again.

You don’t have to live somewhere to feel like a local. Sometimes, a weekend is all it takes.

For our first Locals on Locals, we stopped by the Nelson Wednesday Market to ask some of the vendors about their favourite local spots — wherever “local” means to them.

A big thank you to everyone who stopped to chat with us and shared a little piece of what makes this place special.

Until next time. 🍻
