Sample local beverages inspired by Fernie’ s landscape and lifestyle. Fernie Brewing Company features a range of popular core brews and specials, while Fernie Alpine Springs is a new brewery dedicated to the refreshing and healthful flavours of kombucha.
Fernie Distillers created their first clear spirit – No. 9 Mine Vodka, in 2016. Fernie Fog Liqueur and Prospector Gin followed soon after, and the award-winning team have since added seasonal spirit specials and a range of sensational cocktails featuring their own hand-blended bitters and garnishes.
At Rooftop Coffee Roasters the art of good coffee is elevated. Carefully crafted brews are created with coffee sourced from around the world and roasted locally. The company was started by a 16-year-old roasting beans on his rooftop as a hobby and has grown into one of Fernie’ s finest artisanal outlets.
