The Boundary Bay Brewing Company, also known as the Boundary Bay Brewery & Bistro is a brewery and brewpub in Bellingham, Washington, USA. It was founded in 1995 by Ed Bennett, and has won numerous awards in national and international beer competitions.[1][2] It is named after Boundary Bay, a bay north of Bellingham that is partially Canadian and partially American territory. During prohibition, rum-runners and bootleggers crossed illegal alcohol into the States through this unique geological feature.
The New Brewer, a publication of the Brewers Association, announced in their 2008 annual industry review that the Boundary Bay Brewery & Bistro was the nation's largest brewpub based on number of barrels sold (a brewpub being defined as a restaurant-brewery that sells 25% or more of its beer on site).
