Maple Meadows Brewing Co.

Maple Ridge’s first brewery is a small operation overflowing with craft beer choices.

The first microbrewery to open in Maple Ridge in 2015, Maple Meadows Brewing was founded by local entrepreneur Carlo Baroccio who has operated the tiny brewery as a true labour of love ever since. The comfortable tasting room might be small, but it always boasts a great variety with 10 beers on tap, including two nitro taps for specialty pours, and occasional cask-conditioned beers, as well as red and white wine. Drop by for a tasting flight and a chat with the friendly staff.

This truly is a destination brewery since its small capacity does not allow for wholesale distribution sales — so be sure to bring a growler or pick up a few bottles of your favourites. As a bonus, all the bottle sales support different local charities: 50¢ from each bottle goes towards either frontline health care workers in Maple Ridge or the local Food Bank.
