Press release from: Parallel 49 Brewing Company
Parallel 49 Brewing Company Brewing Up Quality Craft Beers

Vancouver, BC – New to the thriving microbrewery market, Parallel 49 Brewing Company has debuted as the 4th microbrewery in the city of Vancouver. The new East Vancouver brewery will be the only microbrewery offering Draught, Single Serve 650ml bottles, and 6 pack sizes, allowing Vancouverites to experience the unique craft beer they have been thirsting after for years.

As a group of craft beer lovers, founders Mike, Nick, and Anthony all set out to turn their passion into a reality. Friends for over 20 years, they “wanted to raise the bar for craft beer establishments in the city, specifically in their own hood.” They took the plunge and opened up a craft beer specific restaurant in Vancouver which quickly grew to a popular destination for craft beer lovers in East Van.

The three self-proclaimed “beer geeks” eventually decided to go after their big dream and start their own brewery. They partnered with Michael Tod, a friend with a wealth of experience in the BC craft brewing industry and targeted a brewer to help turn their brewery dream into a reality. Graham With has been assigned as head brewer. Not only an accomplished brewer, Graham has his degree in Chemical Process engineering from the University of British Columbia, and also founded VanBrewers a network of home brewers with over 200 members.

With their passion for craft beer, these 5 all plan to test the limits with Parallel 49 Brewing Company, brewing up quality craft beers that will bring out the beer fan in all of us. Parallel 49 is proud to be a part of the rapidly growing legacy of craft microbreweries in Vancouver.

Parallel 49 is the 4th microbrewery in Vancouver and will be the only microbrewery doing Draught, Single Serve 650ml bottles, and 6 pack sizes. Parallel 49 Brewery hopes to be the driver in developing the micro-brewing category in Canada as it currently trails behind the United States in particular. Granville Island Brewing paved the way for other microbreweries and Parallel 49 Brewery is proud to be a part of the Vancouver legacy.
