Great custom beer and great service!
I picked up a batch of the 30th anniversary ale in early July. Exceptional quality & taste 3 months later!
Amazing place and unreal people! 5/5 would recommend!
Been going here awhile for homebrew equipment and everyone there is amazing.
A "must visit" for anyone interested in craft beer brewing, Terminal City sits in the niche between serving the home brew market and being a specialist microbrewery. A wonderful selection of ingredients is complemented by a wide range of beers and wines. The staff are very helpful and friendly, giving advice on how they could tailor production to specific requirements.
I ordered a used carboy, plug, valve, and sanitizer; and it was delivered, well packaged, and on time, without any issues. The shipping quote went from $22.xx to $29.xx, and I had to text and call Terminal City after receiving a pickup request but I expected them to say they would not be able to ship the 23 litre bottle, or I would have to pay $40 extra for shipping. 5 stars.

I bought some homebrewing ingredients here and was impressed by the good deals on sale items and fantastic customer service both when placing my order and picking it up in store.
Beer and wine supply store as well as brewing on site - friendly staff
Came in to get some supplies to brew beer for the first time and they were super helpful with answering my questions, and figuring out what equipment I didn’t actually need.
The staff here are super knowledgeable and friendly. This is the best place in the city to get brewing supplies, hands down bar none!
Terminal City Brewing completely & utterly ROCKS! The beer quality is totally up to snuff & 100% true craft. These guys are truly beer connoisseurs. If you're like me & love the Nectar of the Gods, this business can save you a small fortune & impress all your beer-loving friends! Yum!
Came here today after the (sad) closure of my local homebrew shop. They have a pretty good inventory of grains, hops etc, while also asking me for suggestions on other things they could start carrying - very thoughtful! Vincent was so welcoming and I look forward to a chance to return.
I came to Terminal City to save money but I was really surprised by the quality of the product. I know it's made from all natural ingredients with no additives.
Beer is always consistent and tastes exactly as you would want it. Staff is very friendly and accommodating

I've been going to Terminal City Brewing for years and can say that the staff really know what they're doing. I have bottled red wine, white wine, lagers, IPA's, even sparkling wine and the results are always great! The staff are personable and proficient, the atmosphere is relaxed and fun, and the product is delicious every time.
My friends and I have been coming here for 8 years. The guys are knowledgeable, friendly and fun. We always have a fantastic time bottling. Though we have our go to wines, we try different things like the carbonated fruit wines and ciders too. Top knotch Cab Sauv every time!

Comfortable facility, friendly knowledgeable staff, and great recipes to make beer I'm proud to serve (and happy to drink!)
I find the staff at Terminal City Brewing to be relaxed and helpful, always making my visit a pleasant experience. Nice people with a good product!
Great place and very friendly. I found everything I was looking for.
Let’s see now. My wife and I have devoured at least 100 bottles or different reds and whites and are pleased. Hic. Even though we’re moving, we’ll still keep coming here as they make the bottling process so easy and the wines are nice….if you can wait 6 months for them to age a bit. However, the lack of cool looking labels is getting harder to acquire. Please keep labels in stock for the wine... More

If I need to pay extra, so be it but it would be nice to know before I start bottling. The overall space and atmosphere make bottling a pleasure. I would definitely recommend this place to my friends. Less
I have been bottling wine, beer and cidre with these guys for years (started at their old location on E 2nd) and have always been quite satisfied. Always ready to do the bottling and very helpful.
The Top 5 reasons I go to TCB 1. The beer (fresh, preservative-free & customizable craft beer) 2. The people (Bryn, Josh, Trevor, Vincent & Ben - all great guys!) 3. The price (half the price of the BCL, what else is there to say?) 4. The wine (lots of styles/price points & so easy to bottle) 5.

Very good selection of wines. The premises are neat and well organized. The staff are very knowledgeable and helpful.
Best beer making experience in 50 years ! Coming up on 2 dozen batches and each was right on style with that super small batch taste. Bryn Josh and Trevor offer great support and pro-tips...it's a super environment to brew and bottle beer. Thanks Guys !
Went there to buy some bottles and supplies so I could start homebrewing. When I asked for advice, the two dudes working the counter beat around the bush and, more or less, refused to give me an answer,.

Went there to buy some bottles and supplies so I could start homebrewing. When I asked for advice, the two dudes working the counter beat around the bush and, more or less, refused to give me an answer,. I'm not sure if that was gatekeeping the hobby or if it was their lack of knowledge, but what really hit home was their behaviour regarding when I was picking up my bottles. They gave me a box that was missing some bottles, and when I went back to get the rest, they were snippy about it and acted like it was my fault for the bottles being missing. Poor service overall, I don't want to be treated like I need a certain level of experience to talk to a shopkeeper. Definitely going to Barley's from now on. Edit as of May 4: contacted the email address a few weeks ago and explained my situation, they never never responded. The question they refused to answer in the store was when I was newer to brewing and asked how long a primary fermentation usually lasts. Less
Ive been brewing regularly with Terminal City for about 3 years now and have found their cost, quality, cleanliness, and customer service consistently excellent . Their staff are always friendly and helpful. I've used other UBrews over the years and these guys are the best.
I've been brewing at TC Brewing before the new team started ( since 1994 ish) The transition went so smoothly, the product remains exceptional, the staff are so friendly and know so much. I highly recommend this company to everyone. All the best for continuing success! Cheers!
We love this business! Great wine at great prices and great customer service. We highly recommend them

Ahoy beer lovers! Welcome to the magical land of Terminal City, where every day is a "Beer Day" and every beer is a story waiting to be told. My cousin and I have been loyal customers for years, and let me tell you, the beer is just the tip of the iceberg. The real magic happens when you step inside and feel the warm embrace of the crew, who are like long lost friends you never knew you had. They even let us play our Spanish tunes, because why not? And the best part? You can bring your own secret beer recipe and they will brew it to perfection! No more brewing in your bathtub and leaving behind a trail of hops and barley. Terminal City has got you covered. But wait, there's more! The diverse crowd at Terminal City will make you feel like you're at a United Nations of beer enthusiasts. Whether you're a seasoned drinker or a fresh-faced rookie, everyone is welcome to join in on the fun. Just imagine, friends, music, games, and endless beers, all in one place. It's like being a kid in a candy store, but with better drinks. So, I raise my glass to Terminal City and to "Beer Day". Cheers to good times and good beer, and to the belief that even Baby Jesus and Josh would give this place their stamp of approval. John 2:1-11, indeed! Less
We have been using Terminal City to brew our beer for the past 25 years. Never a bad batch!!! The staff are very knowledgable and very helpful. Selection of beer is amazing
I've been going to terminal city for a few years now. Conveniently located in East van. Great variety of wines to choose from. They will help if there is a particular wine you like at liquor store, and will match as best as they can. Great staff, friendly, sociable and always available to answer any questions. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Good job guys!

This place absolutely rocks. I've been a customer for 10 years now. It's always a fabulous customer experience.Trevor, Josh, and Brynn know their craft inside and out. They will hook you up with over-the-top-quality imbibable fluids that absolutely shame nearby Brew Pubs, which habitually charge up to four times as much for the equivalent. So anyway, the Service Industry's pricing structure is one thing, and a complicated use-case to examine, and pricing premiums are to be expected. Espially when it comes alcohol.That said, the ability to obtain the absolute freshest beer possible at 1/2 the B.C. Govt. liquor-store price is mind-boggling. My only regret is that I didn't discover this amazing resource when Dave, the original owner, founded it 30 some years. ago. Less

I have been a patron of this establishment for over 13 years. The products and service keep me coming back .
Best tasting beer I ever drank for 50% off the cost of store bought and without the preservatives! Why drink any other beer except Terminal City U-Brew.
I've been a customer here for 20+ years - great guys, delicious beer, fantastic atmosphere in the shop. My favourite errand (by far) is dropping by Terminal City.
I just did my first batch with Terminal City Brewing and it was an amazing experience from start to finish. From the email and phone conversations down to every face-to-face interaction, they were professional and friendly. As a bonus, and probably most important, the beer is delicious! I will come again and highly recommend them. Kathy
I’ve been bottling wine here for many years, and the staff is super friendly and knowledgeable! Thanks y’all 💕🍷
Super nice and helpful, I came here to get a brewing starter kit and the guy who helped me was honest about what I’d need and not need right away and helped me pick out the perfect stuff! I’m excited to give it to my fiancé as a gift! Thank you so much!!!
This place is amazing! The custom labels they print look great for client gifts or weddings, and the wine tastes great
Can’t believe how good the beer is there, and how long it stays good. Got dark lager early March and still working through it. Reminds me of session dark lager from Oregon but better. I’ll be ordering another batch to replenish current. Unreal.
Delicious beer at a good price. Friendly staff that are very helpful. One of the benefits of drinking this quality beer that has no preservatives and additives is that you don't get Hangovers!!! I highly recommend Terminal City Brewing.
I love going here I brew 4 week Chillian Malbec Family and friends give it top reviews.
Bryn has been extremely helpful and helped us pick the right wine for our wedding. Everything from timeline, bottling to labeling, the team has been helpful and easy to work with. Highly recommend for all your wine/beer brewing opportunities or events.
Very helpful and kind staff. Highly recommended.
Great team. Excellent u brew and high quality beer and wine. What more can you ask for. I have been coming here for years and they have never disappoint me with the quality of their product. Highly recommend.
Helpful, knowledgeable and with a very wide range of beer making options, I've ubrewed here for years. Would recommend as an East Van mainstay.
We are very happy customers of Terminal City Brewing, and have been so for years. The product is excellent, the prices great, and the staff are always friendly and helpful! Cheers :-)
Amazing beer! Everything is super craftmade and well taken care there. I regret having lived near this store for so long and not knowing that it was there. Otherwise I'd have become a customer earlier.
Beer is better than what you can buy in the liquor store and you can tailor it to your specific preferences!
Wonderful staff and service.. great prices! Got wine done many times and always so delicious and friends always compliment on it! Well done.. thanks Jana
Went here to pickup some potassium sorbate for home brewing. The staff member at the counter was able to assist with sourcing new bottles. I will defiantly be back
This is a ubrew place where they brew the beer from scratch. No kits, the quality of the beer here is incredible.
Very helpful don't know why anyone would buy from liquor store. They have good wine and good beer.
LOVE love love this place.
This is one of the only places that actually micro brew the batches. This is REAL beer. Three of us bottle every month for the last year and have never had a bad batch. The staff is very helpful and accommodating. I highly recommend.
Wonderful beer selection, very friendly and competent staff, decent prices! Recommend!
great place to bottle. good music and service
Bottled some pandemic pilsner today. Great place.
Craft beer with self service. Professional staff is very helpful and supportive for newcomers. They love what they do and you can tell with the outcome!
Nano brewery that will brew just about any beer style for you. As good as any other brewery out there and pricing works out to about $3/L which is half the cost of a six pack or growler. It takes about three weeks to brew and you need to supply your own bottles.
4th batch of Amarone. Excellent.
It's really darn good beer. These guys make really good beer! We like bottling it. It is a Zen moment at Terminal City! Great local business.
Great way to spend a couple hours. Bottling tasty cheap beer.
We absolutely love this place! Super friendly staff and great selections! I highly recommend this place!
Excellent place very friendly
Incredible setup! I just finished my first batch with them and it turned out amazing. Super helpful staff so the entire process from start to finish was very easy.
great and comfortable atmosphere, staff are friendly and knowledgable!
Great staff. Always a plus that they play good music as well.
No complaints from me! Super helpful and friendly guys & taste wont disappoint!! They always have a special on too which is nice to save an extra $ or $$
Friendly knowledgeable staff. Great prices
Great beer and wine selection
Extensive selection of grain brews. Josh and Trevor do a great job...always a good brew!
Awesome U-Brew, the "Auto filler" makes filling your bottles quick and easy. The owner is friendly and accommodating
Love the guys here, so friendly and knowledgable. This has been been my go to brewery/winery for over 30 years...😉
Wonderful u brew place that does beer and wine. A great menu of options and helpful staff. We have been going here for years and have yet to have any bad beer.
The beer at Terminal City brewing would give any of the micro breweries in East Van a run for their money. Highly recommended if you are a legitimate beer aficionado. My current batch is tailored to increase the hoppiness and decrease the citrus. I always enjoy going down to bottle each new batch, to see how the turned out and catch up with the lads at Terminal City.
Laid-back atmosphere. Conveniently located with parking in the back. Super friendly staff who are extremely knowledgeable. GREAT prices. 5 stars, for sure 🍻
Fresh tasty beer if you can plan ahead a couple weeks. Awesome service and a fun environment to bottle in
Great tasting, fresh beer everytime. Very friendly service. A delicious product at a very reasonable price. The wine is good too! Highly recommended.
My friends and I have brewed quite a few batches here and we cannot recommend it enough. The staff are super helpful, there is a great selection, prices are reasonable, and everyone who's there brewing or bottling are always willing to offer advice or just have a great conversation. Tons of fun

Dave, Mike & all the crew at West Coast U Brew have always given me the best service & provided me with a beer that I can't beat anywhere! I can't go back to store bought brews anymore!
Having done a few different batches now thought I should throw these guys a review... they have always been helpful and offer a very wide range of beer options. I have found it easy to get a batch started and to book in for a bottling appointment.
Was leery at first, as I wasn`t able to sample their product (for legal reasons, I am sure). A month later my all grain lager was ready, and sampling was performed while bottling my batch. Very good, and would use the service again.
Knowledgeable and friendly staff, and the beer came out great!
