The Steamworks Brewpub in Gastown, Van­cou­ver has been around since 1995. And the brew­ kettles are still heated with steam­ pipes ­­from the days of the pioneers. As the variety of beers and quantities steadily grew, we  began­ ­to use other breweries too for brewing our beer. After 18 years the capacity was simply no longer sufficient­­­­ to satisfy the increasing demand­ and do justice to the many new innovative Steamworks beers­.

In 2013 the first sod was cut at the site of our brewery in Burnaby with its own filling machine for bottles, cans and casks. Now Steamworks was ready for exporting to the USA and Europe, predominantly Germany, Austria­ and Switzerland. In the meanwhile we have already installed several new brew ­­­ kettles and there's still room for one or two more.
