The founding of Bones brought two friends living at opposite sides of the globe back together to brew fantastic things on the coast of BC. Garrett, a seasoned salesperson and marketer in the local craft scene, and Mike, an award-winning brewer based in Asia picked up the challenge of entering the highly competitive craft market while in the midst of a pandemic.

With a background in biochemistry, Mike turned a decades long hobby of home-brewing into a revered brand in Asia, taking home several gold medals at international BJCP competitions. When Covid mandates forced the closure of his brewpub, a planned vacation back to Canada became a permanent move. Bones was launched in October 2020 with a goal to brew world class beers using available tank space at local breweries. By sharing production with operating breweries, we minimize our carbon footprint, increase efficiency, and give much needed revenue to companies struggling due to the pandemic.
