Staying late at the office never looked this good.

'The Office' is the latest microbrewery poised to open its doors as Kelowna's microbrewery cluster in the area continues to grow.

It's decorated with bright colours with room for a small on-site brewery, kitchen and seating for over 90 if you include the patio.

The Office is sandwiched between the Welton Arms and Unleashed. 

Together they bring the number of craft breweries in the area to eight in the immediate area. 

It's going to be a fantastic community of craft breweries, said Bruce McKay, "and we think there's lots of room for everybody to succeed."

McKay will be operating The Office along with his son Andrew, who's excited about what's brewing.

"Our specialty is definitely going to be our hazy IPA's and hazy pale ales," said Andrew, "leaning a little bit towards east coast, some fruitier tropical profiles."

The Office has the smallest square footage of any of the area breweries or pubs, but they're making the best of it.

"We certainly are learning and will continue to learn how to be really efficient on how we're using the space," said Bruce.

"But that's okay, we're a compact, small brewery anyway."

Visitors can expect lots of 'office life' references when they look around, including the growlers that are decorated with images of post-it notes.

"Lots of nods to office culture," the pair said together.

The Office is expecting to open to the public sometime next week.
