Vaycay vibes in every sip
The Taproom
Welcome to Veranda - the coolest collaborative taproom and spirit hall in town! We've partnered up with the amazing Burwood Distillery to create a space that's not just a brewery, but a destination for everyone who loves great drinks, delicious food and good vibes.
Our home is in the historic Stables building, and let us tell you, this place has some serious character! Built in 1936, it was originally home to the 'B' Squadron of the Lord Strathcona's Horse Regiment. That means it was designed to house up to one hundred horses - how cool is that? And with its unique 'K' shape, the building maximizes light, airflow, and sanitation, making it the perfect spot for our craft beverage production facility.
Fast forward to today, and we've taken this amazing piece of history and turned it into something truly special. We're all about community here, so we've created a space that's perfect for hanging out with your friends, enjoying premium spirits, craft beer, and delicious scratch food.

OUR BEER
Our beers layer the best local offerings with ingredients from around the globe - creating flavours that not only inspire your palette, but transport you through place and time, and leave you with a whiff of nostalgia.
5.8% New England IPA
TANGERINE SPEEDO
Sit back and feel the sand between your toes when you take a sip of our refreshing, citrusy, tropical fruit-forward, Tangerine Speedo. We went big on Sabro dry hops and layered them with Kviek yeast to create crazy delicious citrus-coconut aromas and flavours. As pure and perfect as a day at the beach.
When you're with Tangerine Speedo, the sun is always out.
4.9% Lemon/Lime hopped Hefeweizen
EL HEFE
Hefeweizens are famous for being vibrant, drinkable malted wheat ales - a beer for all seasons. Bask in El Hefe’s glow, approachable fruity, fulfilling flavour and refreshing carbonation. True to his name, El Hefe is a boss who honours his traditional German roots, but breaks some rules too. Our citrusy dry hop gives El Hefe its singular lemon-lime aroma.
Pull up a chair and share a moment with El Hefe. Salud.
5.8% West Coast IPA
THE WEEKENDER
One sip of The Weekender’s piney, dank notes and you’ll feel that moment when time is all yours again. Locally grown Strathmore malts paired with traditional Pacific Northwest hops make for a vibrant, approachable ale. Tropical, citrusy aromas soften this West Coast IPA’s traditional bitter flavour.
So, unplug and slow down. The fire is crackling. The waves are rolling in. The Weekender is here.
5% Italian Pilsner
VEZPA
Our fresh, crisp Vezpa was inspired by zipping over cobblestone streets along the sea. An Italian Pilsner this good takes time. We cold ferment the Vezpa for six weeks, layering noble hops onto an unfiltered pilsner for distinctive balance and subtle complexity. This light, dry-hopped, highly carbonated pils carries the spirit of new discoveries in the old world.
Climb aboard the Vezpa. Italia awaits.
4.2% Light rice lager
Crouching Tiger
Meet Crouching Tiger, a rice lager that’s as crushable as it is exotic. This light crisp beer’s unique lemony aroma will have you dreaming of setting down your backpack in a far-flung limestone cave or swimming in turquoise Southeast Asian waters. The perfect complement to sushi, Thai, or Chinese food.
5.2% salted black lager
Hidden Dragon
Don’t be fooled by this beer’s bold look—behind the dark colour lies a highly drinkable, fulfilling beer with depth. A pinch of black lava salt reminds the adventurous drinker that those who are willing to try new things will be rewarded. This delicious winter lager will warm you from the inside out and leave you craving more.
5.3% Fruity lagered Ale
Jet Lag
Jet Lag was never something people looked forward to... until now!
Your taste buds will soar to a serene stonefruit paradise. With its frosted yellow complexion, apricot fragrance, and delicate hoppy stone fruit taste, this refreshing and silky lagered ale is your go-to destination all year round. So, relax, fasten your seatbelts, and indulge in Jet Lag.
