Postmark Brewing

Always down to check out a brewery that I haven’t been to. B wanted to try Postmark Brewing so we hit them up after brunch on a lazy Monday afternoon. Located inside the Settlement Building, it also houses Vancouver Urban Winery and The Belgard Kitchen.

It wasn’t busy at all when we went but that’s because it was 3:00pm. Perfect time as happy hour had just started (Monday to Thursday from 3:00 to 6:00pm).

The inside is beautiful with high ceilings, wood tables and a variety of seating. Lots of natural light coming through the windows.

Chalkboards up over the bar for all three brands.

7 staples and 7 seasonal flavours available.

The wine menu (whites, reds, rosé and sparkling).

Growler station is right when you walk inside.

There was tons of merch available. It’s a bit hidden in the back but worth checking out before you leave. Pricey though!

Interesting that they post their production schedule.

Flight ($8.00)
They only had 8 out of 14 flavours available on tap. We settled on blonde (pretty good), raspberry (blah; tasted like cough syrup and we couldn’t finish it), pineapple ale (barely tasted any pineapple flavour) and saison (decent).

Normally, we like fruity flavours but the blonde and saison were hands down better.

Blondebucha ($4.50 for 10oz)
A mix of their blonde and a kombucha (forget from where but it’s local). This was an interesting combination but it worked. B said she wasn’t sure if she’d be able to drink a full glass so the 10oz worked out perfectly.

Heirloom caprese pizzette ($9.00)
This was one of three items on their happy hour list. Herbed cashew mozzarella, sunflower seed pesto and white balsamic.

Crust had a great crunchy bite and we loved the pesto sauce. Pea shoots were a nice touch. Very happy with this!

Overall, we weren’t that impressed with the beers but would come back to try more of the food from The Belgard Kitchen and possibly the wines. Hello wine flights!
