Wheelhouse Move in motion, with plans ahead for special Seafest outdoor celebration

 

Victoria Day marked the final glass of Wheelhouse Brews at their former location
up the hill from the Atlin Terminal

The Big Wheelhouse migration is underway, with the old location being emptied of the memorabilia that marked the many years atop the hill from the Atlin Terminal, with the destination down to the waterfront area adjacent to Rotary Park and the Kwinitsa Museum. 

The last pour at the old locale came on Victoria Day, with some last memories shared over that weekend as the owners made plans for their travels to their new home in the CN Waterfront building.

Since that time, the new location has been a frenetic bee hive of activity with trades workers and contractors putting some of the final touches to the new destination.

Work continues to move forward towards opening day for the
new location of Prince Rupert's Wheelhouse Brewing company

The team at the Wheelhouse has not as of yet outlined a timeline towards Opening Day at the new location,  though it would seem to still be a bit off, that with an advisory towards their plans for Seafest Saturday on June 10th and what has become their traditional Beer Garden festival.

The Wheelhouse's Seafest Saturday poster provides a look at the area set aside for the Waterfront Beer Gardens which will be on the East side of the facility.

You can follow the Wheelhouse Social media stream for updates on what will be a much anticipated reopening for the local craft brewers as they open the doors to their new digs sometime in the near future.
