The spring/summer 2025 edition of The Growler is out now and here’s where you can find it – The Growler B.C.
The Growler is back with all the beer news and features you need to get you through the spring and summer!
Joe Wiebe looks at the Lukr tap (Czech-style side-pour tap) trend in B.C., while Matt Poirier brings us the second story in a series about flavours in beer, both good and bad. This issue: the influence of hops. In this issue’s Style Snapshot, we take a look at Vienna lager, and we bring you a must-drink list of brewed-in.B.C options.
As we all know, there is a bounty of fresh and delicious beer and cider around the province—and food to go with it—and our writers are here to bring you the latest and greatest: Noëlle Phillips visits the soon-to-be-opened Threefold Brewing, Sandra Thomas brings us a Fish Taco recipe from Shelter in Tofino, and Cassandra Anderton takes us on a cider tour of Summerland’s Bottleneck Drive.
Finally, as always, we have a comprehensive listing of all the breweries (and breweries to come) in beautiful, beer-drinking British Columbia. Subscribe here and never miss an issue or see where you can pick up your copy below:
