Name: Trivia Mondays
Start: 2026-10-19
Location: Abandoned Rail Brewing Co.

Abandoned Rail Brewing Co. sits on the sun‑splashed slopes of the Naramata Bench near Penticton, British Columbia, where a family farm supplies its own barley and turns it into European‑inspired ales that have already racked up a handful of awards. The operation (the founders once debated whether a lager could be poetic) combines old‑world malt handling with a surprisingly modern brewing plant, proving you don’t need a massive industrial complex to produce something genuinely fine. Sustainability isn’t a buzzword here; every hop and grain is harvested on‑site, and the brewery feeds that ethos back into the local community with a convivial vibe that feels more like a weekend market than a sterile tasting room.

A rotating roster of beers means there’s always something new to try, and the selection is generous enough to keep even the most discerning palate occupied. The tasting area is sleek, with indoor seats and a breezy outdoor terrace that opens directly onto a bike path, perfect for a post‑ride pit‑stop. Gourmet pizzas arrive with toppings you’ve never imagined paired with craft beer, and dogs are treated like VIPs, complete with self‑service water bowls. In short, Abandoned Rail delivers quality, variety and a dash of cheeky charm—exactly the kind of place that makes you believe a farmhouse can be a serious contender in the craft‑beer arena.
