Craft beer, big screen tv’s, wood fired pizzas, and a bowling alley?!? Monkey 9 Brewing Co has all the ingredients for an awesome night! Located on Richmond’s Entertainment Boulevard, Monkey 9 Brewing takes advantage of the vast amount of land our suburbs provide and utilizes every square foot! Ever found yourself roaming the streets of Vancouver with a group of friends only to find every bar is at capacity? You’ll never have that problem at Monkey 9 Brewing. It boast a spacious layout with ample seating and viewing areas. But what about all this craft beer I’ve been hearing about? Tucked in the background are giant vats of delicious craft beer brewed on site by local Brew Master Travis Lang.
Travis rolled out the red carpet with a behind the scenes tour and even let me try some of his pet projects like the Belgian Waffle Ale and the Banana Hef! After two minutes with Travis you understand how passionate he is about locally sourcing high quality ingredients to make the best beer he can. I love his grass roots approach to brewing craft beer and I’m satisfied to know that Vancouver has gained another passionate brewer! Monkey 9 Brewing Co. is a brew-pub with an excellent menu featuring wood fired pizza’s and a craft beer list with 6 beers brewed right on location! If you thought the fun stopped their you’ll be pleasantly surprised that the brew-pub is attached to a massive bowling alley where you can sip on a beer and go for the coveted Turkey XXX!
I had such a blast at Monkey 9 Brewing I’m seriously considering having my birthday party there. They can accommodate large groups and I like the idea of having an activity to enjoy besides guzzling craft beer! You have to check this place out and if you’re looking for a sweet deal hit it for happy hour 2-5pm daily and indulge in $3.50 craft beers!
I’m always stoked when bars push the boundaries and provide a unique and lasting experience. Monkey 9 Brewing Co. is a great addition to Vancouver’s growing craft beer scene! Born from opportunity, in the year of the monkey, Monkey 9 Brewing is a passionate group people who love good beer and a good time. The number nine represents positivity, gratification, togetherness, magic and wisdom. After sipping on a flight of locally sourced craft beer and soaking in the atmosphere you’ll see why the name is so appropriate. Until next time my fellow beer enthusiasts.
