Description
In 2003 the Pask family, long-time residents of Fernie, had a dream of their own to bring the brew back to the small rocky mountain coal mining town. They did just that, setting up a Brewery in their family barn. It was the start of things to come.

In 2007 we relocated to our existing building, designed and built from scratch. With constant growth, Brewhouse expansion, new products and revamped recipes, we’ve travelled through kegs to cans to 650ml bottles and into growlers, currently distributing throughout BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan and into Manitoba. As we continue to grow, we’ll never forget our roots. It’s as simple as Good Beer from a Good Town.

473ml can. Pours a hazy orange-copper with a medium, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that laces. Mild, sweet aroma of wheat malt, caramel, honey, peach and light orange. Sweet flavour of wheat malt, caramel, orange, mango, honey, peach, bitter grass and light pine with spicy hops in a dry finish. Medium body with a smooth, oily texture and soft carbonation. Malt forward, easy to drink and a little mellow.

473ml can. Pours a slightly hazy pale gold with a few chunks of yeast that sink to the bottom and a medium, frothy, long lasting, white head that laces. Mild, sweet aroma of wheat malt, mango, lime, passion fruit, oats and pine. Sweet flavour of wheat malt, caramel, lemon, lime, cantaloupe, mango, oats and light pine in a dry, mild bitter, floral hop finish. Medium body with a smooth, oily texture and soft carbonation. Not bad, just a little mild for a DIPA.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Blond colour, slight haze. Light chamomile aroma. Lean mouthfeel, but not getting any malt or hop vibe. A bit of citrus peel.
Ok beer.

Can from High Point, Vancouver
Golden to light amber colour. The aroma is a bit cereally, the flavour roo, the hopping is herbaceous.
Quite old style result actually. Not very interesting, but it's ok, and no technical flaws.

On tap. Pours a copper color with light head. Pretty much a dose of bready caramel malts with some fruity melons. Fat but easy to drink.
