Homer St. Café announces new Takeover Series

Yaletown favourite partners with distillers and brewers for monthly series of special offers and dinners

Homer St. Café and Bar Beverage Director JS Dupuis is pleased to announce the launch of a new Takeover series at the popular Yaletown eatery.

Each month will see a different distiller or brewer commandeer Homer Street Café’s bar and kitchen for a week, offering drink specials, collaborative menu items and ticketed tasting dinners with experts from the participating brewery and/or distillery.


The Takeover Series kicks off with Central City Brewing & Distilling, December 4-10. Throughout the weeklong event, Surrey-based brewer and distiller’s Queensborough Gin cocktail and a flight of all three Lohin & McKinnon whiskies will be featured at the bar and in special dishes on the Fresh Sheet. These will be complemented by SuperSolar IPA and Black Lager on tap for the week as well as casks of their Amber Ale blended with their Lohin & McKinnon 150th Anniversary peated whiskey starting on Thursday the 7th.

The Central City Takeover will close with a family-style tasting dinner on Sunday, December 10th featuring a cask-tapping by Central City Brewmaster Gary Lohin, a guided whisky tasting with Head Distiller Stuart McKinnon, and a welcome Queensborough Gin cocktail created by Brand Ambassador Christos Kalaitzis.

Takeovers in the series will include:

  • December 4-10: Central City Brewing & Distilling
  • January 8-14: Wiser’s Whisky Takeover
  • February 2018: Phillips Brewery and Fermentorium Takeover
  • March 2018: Edrington Group Takeover (Cutty Sark, Famous Grouse, Highland Park, Macallan, Brugal)
  • April 2018: Powell St Brewery Takeover
  • May 2018: The Glenlivet Takeover

*Dates and Takeover partners subject to change.
