Another gorgeous sunny morning in Ucluelet was a good time for a short stroll on the Wild Pacific Trail again. Off we went just in time to see a pod of Orca Whales going by quite close to shore. A bonus for sure. The German & British tourists were thrilled when we pointed out the whales. It was wonderful. O

Since it was noon and a certain peckishness, even esurient, was developing so a stop at UCLUELET BREWING COMPANY, a Brew Pub in a former church. What a delight! The interior renovations are really well done with big beams, wood floor and a large patio overlooking the harbour. It was windy out so we perched on tall stools at a table inside. 

The food menu is limited here. Some snacks, wraps, a Grilled Cheese. But they specialize in Charcuterie Boards. We chose one with 3 cheeses, 3 meats, 2 kinds of crackers, house made jame & mustard plus olives & spiced apple slices. A glass of wine and a Flight of in-house beers were the beverages. Loved the beer. 4 very distinctive tastes that were all good. The charcuterie was simply delicious and perfect for our lunch today. 

Some really nice music was playing in the background. Our server advised that it was Ana Ash, a folk singer from California. Might be worth checking her out on Apple Music. 

Ukee Brewery is a must stop. Good food, nice and prompt service, great surroundings and excellent beer. We even left with two cans to take home.

It seems the transformation from Church to Brew Pub was a grand idea. My kind of Church. Learn more at https://www.uclueletbrewing.ca
