Built by locals, for locals.
Copper Brewing started the way a lot of great things do… over a beer! Homebrewer Sean White and Darla Ariss had one goal: build a brewery that makes genuinely good beer and creates a space where everyone feels welcome.
That dream poured into reality in 2019, right in the Landmark District of Kelowna. Copper Brewing Co. is more than just another Kelowna brewery. We're a community-focused, family-friendly gathering spot in the Landmark District in the heart of Kelowna. It's a place where craft beer, premium pub food, and good company come together.
We serve premium comfort food, not just beer. From smash burgers and gourmet hot dogs to fresh salads and warm mini donuts. Our taproom is fueled by a full kitchen next door at Porter's, our breakfast and brunch spot that shares the same spirit of quality and care.
Whether you're stopping in for one of our rotating taps – wanting to enjoy an Old Fashioned, grabbing lunch or dinner with your crew, or diving into one of our LEGO® kits, board games, or old-school Nintendos, there's something for everyone here. We've grown into Kelowna's neighborhood hangout spot, and we take that title seriously.
Come as you are! Whether you're here for a solo LEGO® build (yes, we sell LEGO®), a family outing, or just good beer and even better conversation.
Why the Name Copper?
When we set out to name our brewery, we didn't want anything flashy, we wanted meaning. Copper stood out to us. Not just for how it sounds, but for what it represents. As a semi-precious metal, copper holds real value. It has a sense of quality, but it's also approachable and accessible to everyone.
That's what we wanted to build, a space that feels high-quality without being pretentious. A place where everyone's welcome to enjoy a great beer, great cocktails, great food, and great company, whether you're a craft beer connoisseur or just here for a good time.
And as it happens, Copper was also the name of our beloved Bernese Mountain Dog, who was our original mascot. His spirit still lives in every corner of the brewery and on every can we produce. But more on that next…
Meet Copper
If you’ve seen our cans, you’ve seen Copper — the Bernese Mountain Dog who inspired our name and continues to be our forever mascot. Copper passed away in 2018 just before the brewery was built, but his memory is in every pour and every paw print.
