Introducing Franco, the heart and soul of our Sales & Orders desk and the longest-standing member of the Howe Sound Brewing team. Franco joined us back in 2001, intending it to be a temporary stop—but we’re incredibly grateful he decided to stay. If you know Howe Sound Brewing, you know Franco.
Franco started at the front desk of the Inn, but soon found his way into the brewery, where he discovered his passion for brewing. “I’ve crushed some grapes in my time” he says, reflecting on his journey. His favourite beer to brew was the Pothole Filler Stout, a strong stout that filled the room with rich roasted aromas.
Originally, Franco’s favourite Howe Sound beer was the Best Bitter, a classic English ale known for its smooth balance of hops and malt with a sweet finish. These days you can catch him reaching for a Pilsner Plunge.
What brought Franco to Squamish? The charming, scenic town, conveniently located between the Vancouver and Whistler. Outside of work, you’ll often find him walking his dog along the estuary trails, or out golfing or hiking in the Sea to Sky.

The game Love tester is a fun and enjoyable experience in which players investigate the compatibility of couples by asking them questions that are both hilarious and unexpected. The game enables players to be creative in the selection of questions, which results in moments that are both enjoyable and educational. It also assists players in developing a more profound comprehension of their own emotions as well as those of other people.
I really like how easy it is on my eyes. I want to know how to get an email or text every time a new post is made. Granny 2 is a horror-themed survival game.
It’s inspiring to see someone like Franco find his passion and grow with Howe Sound Brewing over so many years—his story shows how dedication and curiosity can shape a career. Learning about his journey reminds me a bit of FNF game where the boyfriend keeps facing new challenges to win the girlfriend’s love—step by step, you get better and more confident. I’d love to try the Pothole Filler Stout after reading about it!
The rules of a simple game are not so hard that it takes a long time to learn how to play. Foodle is a great choice for people who like to keep things easy and quick.
