Gin Lane Distilling Co.
Kamloops, Thompson Valley
Gin Lane Distilling Co. is the craft gin arm of Red Collar Brewing, nestled inside the brewery's lively home at 355 Lansdowne Street in downtown Kamloops. That pairing is the whole appeal: you get a creative distillery and a well-regarded brewery under one roof, so whether your group leans toward gin, cocktails or craft beer, everyone is covered in a single buzzy, social space in the heart of the Thompson Valley.
The gin lineup shows real range. Edmond's London Dry is the juniper-forward classic with the traditional gin bite, while Aquarius New Age Gin goes softer and more aromatic with grapefruit, chamomile and lavender. Borealis Haskap Gin leans local, made with haskap berries from nearby Salmon Arm, and the roster extends to other expressions like a navy-strength gin for those who want more punch. Beyond straight pours, Gin Lane shines as a cocktail destination, mixing a creative menu of handcrafted drinks, from bright and floral to bold sips like a habanero gin daisy.
The taproom experience is relaxed and welcoming, with the distillery's cocktails served right alongside Red Collar's locally brewed pints, so you can graze across both worlds in one sitting. The downtown Kamloops location makes it an easy walk-in stop rather than a drive into the countryside, and the venue also hosts private events. It is the kind of place that works equally well for a quick tasting or a longer evening out.
If you are exploring Kamloops and want craft gin with personality plus the comfort of a proper brewery taproom, Gin Lane delivers a genuinely fun, two-in-one stop. Come for the gin, stay for a cocktail and a pint, and pick up a bottle of haskap or London dry to take the Thompson Valley home with you.
