Equal parts good, old-fashioned belonging and fresh, forward-thinking beer.
Bricklayer Brewing is situated in a beautiful brick-clad building that was part of Chilliwack’s downtown revitalization project. The name of the brewery definitely reflects its home.
After moving to Chilliwack from North Vancouver several years ago, Kris got into homebrewing and quickly developed a passion for making beer. He is excited to be making a leap from boiling five gallons on a turkey burner to brewing on the big system in the brewery. It was very challenging to build and open the brewery during the COVID pandemic, but as a journeyman woodworker, Kris was able to build out much of the brewery himself, limiting the number of tradespeople in the building.
Bricklayer’s tasting room has a retro-modern vibe with comfy bar stools, booths, and lots of brick accents throughout. There is also a patio with room to spread out. Although no kitchen is on-site, Bricklayer offers focaccia-style pizzas and soft pretzels made by a local bakery, along with charcuterie, olives, and other snacks.
