Brewery Creek, located in Mount Pleasant, earned its name from a concentration of breweries and soda works in the 1880s that located along its banks to draw on the water source. Near 14th Avenue and between Main and Fraser Streets, a beaver dam caused Brewery Creek to back up and form a swampy lake that became known in the 1860-70s as Tea Swamp after a plant that British pioneers used to brew tea. The concentration of early breweries in the area was due to the availability of water.
