North Basin Brewing

Craft beer in beautiful South Okanagan desert country.

Founded by a mechanic who moved to Osoyoos from Dawson Creek several years ago, North Basin is a small brewery with a fun and friendly vibe. The focus is definitely on the local community — all of the beer brewed on-site is either served there or at a couple of local restaurants. What better excuse to visit beautiful Osoyoos, a small town nestled nestled within  grasslands, highlands and mountains on the warmest lake in Canada. 

The brewery has a small taproom with a patio. Customers are encouraged to bring their own food, but North Basin does sell some snacks as well as dog treats made by a local bakery using spent grains from the brewery.
