Dogfish Head – Aprihop: This is a seasonal Delaware brewed fruit India Pale Ale which comes in at a strength of 7% abv with 50 IBU’s and was poured from a 12 oz bottle into a nonic glass in a hotel. I have had a sample of this on tap and was interested in trying the bottle version. Aroma and…
Whistler Brewing – Black Tusk Ale: This limited edition “Ale” is brewed by Whistler Brewing (pretty sure it’s more of a stout than a mild ale) at a strength of 5% and was poured into a 22 oz beer glass at home.

Howe Sound – Anvil Island Dark Lager: This is a Schwarzbier style lager that is brewed in Squamish, BC at a strength of 5.5% and 21 IBU’s, which is named after my favourite island to gaze at while the sun sets in Porteau Cove, was poured (twice) from a massive 1L bottle into a 22oz glass at home.…
Oskar Blues G’Knight Imperial Red IPA: Brewed in Colorado at strength of 8.7% with 60 IBU’s, this Red Imperial IPA came from a can and was enjoyed in a nonic 16 oz glass. The name of this beer has a lot of meaning as it is a tribute to a brewer named Gordon Knight and it is worth…
Oskar Blues Deviant Dale’s IPA: Brewed in Colorado at strength of 8.0% with 85 IBU’s, this India Pale Ale came from a can and was enjoyed in a nonic 16 oz glass on the road that I specifically picked up so I didn’t have to use a hotel glass (beer geek alert, getting ready to level up…
8 Wired – Mighty Imperial Ale: This is New Zealand strong ale is smoked and aged in oak and is brewed at a mighty strength of 11% alcohol level.

Tap It Brewing – IPA: This is a California brewed India Pale Ale which comes in at a strength of 7% and was poured from a 12 oz bottle into a glass at home. I was excited to see 6 packs of this beer at Central City Liquor Store as I remember it being pretty good from the 2013…
Moon Under Water – This is Hefeweizen: This wheat beer is brewed in Victoria, BC at a strength of 5.5% and was enjoyed in a new 22oz beer glass on a hot spring evening.

Howe Sound – Lager: This is a Dortmunder style lager that is brewed in Squamish, BC at a strength of 5.5% and was poured from a can into a tall glass on my patio. Aroma and Appearance: Pours a hazy golden copper colour, with two fingers of foam and I saw some slow rising bubbles make their way…
Central City Red Racer Belgian Wheat Ale: This wheat beer is brewed in Surrey, BC at a strength of 5% alcohol with 16 IBU’s and was enjoyed in a new 22oz beer glass (almost enough to hold a 650mL beer) Aroma and Appearance: Pours a hazy golden colour with 2 fingers of foam and I observed some tiny…

Aroma and Appearance: Pours a very dark brown with a finger of foam and no visible bubble action. Aroma is smoke, a touch of darker fruits and…
Petrus Aged Pale Ale: Brewed in Belguim by Bavik-De Brabandere, this wild sour ale comes in at a strength of 7.3% alcohol, is aged in oak barrels for 20 months and somewhat deceivingly is not identified as a sour beer on the bottle so I can see at least a few people being in for a surprise with this one.…
Casks of March event at Big Ridge Brewery: Featuring 7 different casks from 7 unique breweries this even was held in the Surrey, BC Big Ridge Brewery Location. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect, but with no cover charge and 7 sampler tickets for $13 I was certainly interested in attending this event, and…
