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:
