Our Story
Brewery and the Beast is a one-of-a-kind culinary event that brings together an extraordinary line-up of chefs, beverage makers and artists who deliver a feast of dishes cooked over live-fire, cocktails, craft beer, cider, wine, hard teas & seltzers, premium non-alcoholic libations and live entertainment.
Our festival is hosted in a casual, relaxed and hospitable atmosphere where guests can participate in a dynamic environment that showcases incredible food, beverages, music, and support for local businesses and charities.
Our goal each year, and at each location, is to deliver a premium hospitality experience that showcases talent, creativity, team building, and economic growth within the food and beverage industry, and the community that empowers them.
Brewery & the Beast proudly showcases proteins that are grown with integrity and transparency. Proteins featured in the chefs dishes are sourced from Canadian Farms and Ranches that raise their animals responsibly and ethically. Visit the Farms page for more information.
At the heart of our festival is community. Since 2012, Brewery & the Beast has been proudly uniting consumers, chefs, farmers, and businesses through common values and sustainable ideas.
