Our first whole day in Vancouver. We started with some walking first in Stanley Park and then across Liongate Bridge which Mattias and Mikael found a bit scary, too high and it moved a little. Then according to Stefans plan it should be a walk of 5km to Sailor Hägars but I'm not convinced that it was only 5km, we walked and walked and the walked some more and after a very long hot while we by chance found the brewery Taylor's Crossing. It was very welcome and a much needed rest. I had an Indian Arm IPA and it went down very easily. After that we continued on to Sailor Hägars Brewing Company, it was still a bit to walk. There we had a rather late lunch and some beer too. There I had a very nice IPA, Bengal IPA.
On we went and took the SeaBus back to downtown and then the bus to Granville Island. On Granville Island we sampled the beers on Granville Island Brewing Company and also on Dockside Brewing Company. Then we thought that we should walk back but we realized that we didn't really know how to get up on the bridge and probably would have to walk a rather long bit to do that so we went and took the Aquabus to Yaletown and visited another brewpub called Dix.
That was what we had time with this day. Tomorrow we are going to take the bus to Seattle. The general impression we had of Vancouver is that it's a very nice and beautiful town and there are a rather lot of micro breweries, especially if you compare with Stockholm, but we didn't taste any really really good beer. Most of the beers were good but nothing that was really special.
