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.

650 ml bottle. Pours a very dark brown with full tan head that settles quickly. Aromas of watery burnt malts, dark chocolate and chicory. Quickly dissipating flavors of chocolate and roasted malts with a faint hint of orange. Highly carbonated on the tongue and a bit oily at the same time.

650mL bottle, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma of burnt roasted malt, some spices, sort of a chicory note, and burnt wood. Flavour is bizarre, binging out burnt roasted malt, some slightly tart notes, wood, chicory / licorice, and some slight sweetness. Bizarre flavours all over the place without much cohesion, but it's still mildly enjoyable. Good stuff, but could use some more crafting to cut out the harsh edges.
