Backroads Brewing - Nelson

Lovely new brewery in the heart of Nelson. A variety of well crafted beers with the high points being their Pale Ale, IPA and Bohemian Lager. The Saison was a pleasant surprise as well. Incredibly helpful and friendly staff and a crisp, warm and welcoming atmosphere with nice decor. Check out their great selection of growlers, especially the ceramic ones. Unique and beautiful.

Popped in for a quick pint with the family and wasn't disappointed. Had some cards/games on-hand for kids to entertain themselves. Great outdoor seating (especially for the hubbies) while the ladies shop Will be back for sure!

Stopped in for a beer and was not disappointed! Beer was good and a really nice laid back setting. They had themed food nights that seemed like they would be fun! Staff were friendly and fun.

First and Foremost: Great beer! Every brew I 've tried is dead-solid good, distinctive, refreshing, smooth, and tasty. Next: great vibe in the heart of Nelson. If you like good beer, make sure you stop by this place during your trip through the Kootenays. And finally, good people, great swag for purchase, or bring a growler and fill 'er up.

This place is a beer and pizza parlour with the most mountain Canadian feel you'll ever have. Snow gear, lumberjacks, and hippies, friendly folk who just want to enjoy local brew in their flannel. Playing Canadian games, chilling over a pint, and the PIZZA IS AMAZING! Thin crust homemade pizza... 20$ gets you a pint (mason jar) and 2 big slices. Highly recommend!
