Trusty Brewing Company

Awesome place, so glad we decided to stop in! I don’t think it’s quite officially «open» yet but will be soon. The beer is all brewed on-​site and was fantastic — their IPA was great but the Pale was even better. The brewer/​owner stopped by our table to chat and is a super nice guy who clearly knows a ton about his craft. We’ll definitely be back.

I had high hopes for this new place, but, my hopes were dashed. When I go out, I want a good beer and good bar food. I personally found the IPA far too malty, had a vinegar after taste. The pulled pork nachos, $ 10, had little to NO pulled pork, and nothing special, I guess bottom line, this won’t be on my downtown Vancouver favorites list unless things really change. I do like the slight remodel though, makes the place more cozy. As a side note, they offer a mug club for $ 100, includes several perks.

Awesome beer. Great relaxed vibe. Most importantly, people who take pride in what they do. The owner/​brewmaster is a super nice, down to earth guy. Have had really great conversations with him. He definitely knows his beer. Says he’s been brewing for 20 years, and it definitely shows. Very well balanced beers, that taste great, and go down so well. The man knows what he’s doing.
We ordered food too. I was super surprised at what the chef was able to put out with what he’s working with. They have an open kitchen in the dining area, with just a few pieces of equipment. Nothing fancy, nothing over the top, and I absolutely love it. When he finished making our order (pulled pork nachos, philly cheese steak, and pretzel), he took the time to explain what he created for us. He was clearly very proud. And he should have been proud. We ended up having a great, relaxed night. Got to spend some quality time, with close friends, in a real place.
I happen to be the Chiropractor that is across the street. I can already tell I’m going to be there a lot. Come see me to get an adjustment and then go to Trusty to get happy and manage your stress.
Welcome to the neighborhood. Thanks for adding value to the area. We all very much appreciate it.

I tried the flight of 4 of the brews and found the stout to be my favorite. was also able to witness integrity of the service, when a group of sloshed individuals were refused service. so if you are looking for good beer and relaxing environment, check it out.

This is beer lovers, beer.
Seriously, if you like drinking beer in a relaxed, clean atmosphere with a nice little menu and a family friendly environment, this is a perfect spot for you.
If you are a beer geek who likes really great beers, also the perfect place for you.
Basically, I should just start having my mail sent here, it will save time.

Brewer was there to tell me about the beers, cozy rough cut wood atmosphere, beer brewed on site– smelled a fresh batch as I walked in, over all– I’d go again. :)

They make great beer. The stout was especially good and the IPA had really nice floral notes. We ate the pulled pork nachos… Good size and great flavor. Highly recommended you drop in when you are out and about in downtown.
