Encore Brewing Co. And My Friend Dana

Dana and Brina - watercolour portraits during a visit to Fernie, BC Canada - working on painting people

My friend, who I’ve known since working at Lululemon’s warehouse 15 years ago, came out to visit last week. Their name is Dana Oikawa, and we managed to get a few of our favourite things in, during her stay with us.

Encore Brewing Co. Dana had also heard of this new brewing co and bowling alley in Cranbrook, so one of the first things we did was try out their menu and play some games (not bowling or beer but I will have to return for those things). The atmosphere was great, the staff was super friendly and helpful, and the tokens even had their logo on them. We both chose one of their pizza specials for lunch and they were delicious, even had some leftovers. I didn’t take many photos while we were there, but it’s nice to go into a new place and discover all the amazing details yourself. Don’t forget to go to the washroom!

Encore Brewing Co - my first time visiting the new Cranbrook brewing co and bowling alley.

We also stopped by Happy Cow Ice Cream, played disc golf with friends, enjoyed an evening at Nevados, walked the trail along the river, crashed the neighbours birthday party, played with the kids, slowly but surely devoured the flavours of four new cheeses from Le Grand Fromage, experienced treats from The House of Gato, and she even painted some watercolours with me.
