Newfoundland and Labrador’s craft brews will be served during Come Home 2022 and will come with  the new Craft Brewery Passport. There are 18 participants in this partnership between the Newfoundland and Labrador Craft Brewers Association (NLCBA) and Come Home 2022 which supports the tour of the province’s beautiful communities while supporting local businesses.

Participants receive a stamp from each participating brewery, cider factory and/or distillery. The first person to receive stamps from all 18 breweries will win a $100 prize from each craft brewery.

Come Home 2022 festivals and events are taking place across Newfoundland and Labrador for the remainder of 2022.

“The Newfoundland and Labrador craft brewing game has never been stronger. With so many distinctive features across the province, launching this pass during Come Home 2022 is a win-win. Residents and tourists will enjoy visiting the breweries for their beverage and culinary experiences, and the communities and surrounding businesses will benefit as well, ” said Honorable Steve Crocker, Minister of Tourism, Culture, Arts and Leisure.

“When you visit any of the growing number of Newfoundland and Labrador craft breweries, distilleries and cider plants across the province, it becomes clear that these businesses complement existing tourism experiences while also contributing to economic development. I encourage tourists and residents to visit local establishments to see firsthand what each has to offer,” said Mr. Andrew Parsons Minister for Industry, Energy and Technology.

“It’s such a great feeling to see people traveling in and around our province again! Whether you’re a tourist or a local, the Craft Beer Passport is a perfect way to commemorate your visits to Newfoundland and Labrador’s finest tasting rooms,” said Justin Fong, Chairman of the Craft Brewers Association of Newfoundland and Labrador.
