Description
We are an East Vancouver craft brewery inspired by tradition and creativity, and go beyond the ordinary to celebrate that which is strange* and extraordinary. The beer we make is influenced both by old world traditions and West coast ingenuity as well as by seasonal ingredients. Our barrel programme promises unique aged beers, and we have a bit of a thing for sour beer.

On tap at Strange Fellows, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Nose has mild citrusy hops, a touch of earthiness, and biscuity malt. Flavour is bright, with plenty of citrusy hops, a touch of pine, and a crisp biscuity malt backbone. Citrusy, lightly bitter finish. Pleasant westie.

Pale straw colour. Nice malt on the nose, with just a light bitterness. Seems a bit weak overall, but not too bad.

On tap at Farmhouse Fest 2025, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma is gentle, with straw and biscuity malt. Flavour is clean, with straw, biscuity malt, and some grass. Finishes dry and clean but boring.

On tap at Strange Fellows, pours an opaque yellow with a small white head. Nose is fairly neutral, with a touch of hopburn and gentle citrusy notes. Flavour is much the same, with light hopburn, a touch of lemon cleaner, light bitterness. Not much going on here, and what little there is isn’t particularly intriguing.

On tap at Strange Fellows, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma has crisp citrus hops and dry crackery malt in good balance. Flavour is dry and crisp, with a dry, floral and citrusy hop character, backed with dry crackery malt. Reasonably hopped for pale, ending crisp. Simple, clean, drinkable. Solid.

On tap at Darby's. Pours a hazy blonde with a white head. Aroma is fairly pleasant, a bit rustic, some funk, a bit phenolic. Flavour has some dirty funk, but generally too phenolic. Nice idea, not well executed.

473 ml can. Pours a bright gold color with moderate head. Aromas of candied citrus, light pine, light pineapple and biscuity malts. Flavors follow same though a bit more malty and with some grass in the finish. Clean

On tap at Darby’s, pours a hazy pale golden with a medium white head. Aroma has some light phenolic notes, musty earthiness, and gentle leathery funk. Flavour is unfortunately a phenol bomb—like Cool Ship 1. There’s some nice funk to this, but not enough to drown out the phenols. Less complex than the first one too, so unfortunately this is a big miss.

Opaque, fruity, some stone fruit, moderate bitterness, decent. I probably overrated it slightly since it was a hot day and a long bike ride.
