With a strong local following and standout beers, Main St Brewing deserves a spot on your radar.

In case you haven’t heard: your new go-to gourmet and cultural destination, Time Out Market Vancouver, is set to open this spring. Landing at Oakridge Park, get ready for a stellar lineup of food and drink offerings. Not to mention, a spacious outdoor terrace that’s soon to be the best spot in town to sink some cold ones come summertime.
Grab a pint from Main St Brewing, one of five microbreweries popping up at Time Out Vancouver Market. Taking its name from the long stretch of road its flagship venue sits beside in Vancouver’s leafy Mount Pleasant neighbourhood, the popular spot has long been a local favourite.
Main St Brewing has been pouring high quality craft beer for 12 years now and even as their fan-base grows their mission stays the same: to brew balanced and flavourful beers that will have you visiting time and again.
The friendly team is just as passionate about supporting their community as they are about their beer, regularly backing local initiatives and neighbourhood events. Over the years, they’ve taken part in fundraisers including the Miracle on Main Street Toy Drive and the Canucks Autism Fundraiser.
Alongside rotating seasonal offerings spotlighting everything from a Hula Hula Pink Guava to a Passionfruit Sour, these three beers will be mainstays on the taps:
Main Street Pilsner
This crisp and clean bev goes down so smoothly there’s no wonder it's their flagship and a gold medal-winning pilsner according to the 2024 Canadian Brewing Awards. Vancouverites are sure to recognise it but for anyone else, this is a great place to start. Brewed with balance in mind, it’s suitable for casual drinkers and craft beer followers alike.
Naked Fox IPA
We’ve got another winner here. This West Coast IPA took out gold at the Canada Beer Cup in 2022 for its bright citrus and pine character. Hop-forward but with a balanced bitterness and clean finish that goes down easy. IPA drinkers across the city would consider this a staple.
Kingpin Pale Ale
A juicy pale ale brewed with Mosaic, Cascade and Nectaron hops. Go for this one if you like tropical notes with a softer body but still something approachable.
What else is happening at Time Out Market Vancouver?
Alongside its curated food and drink offerings, which include 18 kitchens, 3 bars, a bakery café and a dessert bar, the Market will also play host to a vibrant cultural program year-round. With multiple event spaces and a large outdoor terrace, this foodie playground is set to host the best of the city under one roof.
The countdown to opening day is officially on, so stay tuned for all the details.
