Autumn is a wonderful time to travel in British Columbia. The leaves are turning to fall colours and the weather is crisp and fresh.

In other words, it’s the perfect time for beer explorations! 

We put out a call to our accommodation partners throughout British Columbia asking them to provide some discounted beer-and-accommodation packages through the BC Ale Trail, and, wow, did we ever have an amazing response. More than 60 hotels, motels, lodges and even yurts have set up special Sip & Stay packages that include accommodation plus local beer — a growler fill, packaged products or gift card to a local brewery, to name a few. The offers are all unique.

Check out the options sorted by region below — and then plan your next autumn adventure. Cheers!

Visit our Sip & Stay page to find a package that is perfect for you.
