CALGARY, AB & SURREY, BC – Two Western breweries have announced the release of new packages that make it easier for drinkers to enjoy their beers:
Wild Rose Brewery in Calgary will be releasing two of their popular draught offerings, WRed Wheat and S.O.B. (Special Old Bitter) in 6-packs starting this spring. This will expand the brewery’s year-round bottled line-up to six beers, as this new duo joins WRaspberry Ale, IPA, Velvet Fog and Brown Ale on store shelves throughout Alberta.
Russell Brewing in Surrey have recently launched a new sampler 12-pack, containing three cans each of their Extra Special Lager, Pale Ale, Honey Blonde Ale and Cream Ale. The Russell Premium Craft Collection is available now at select private liquor stores in British Columbia.

- Greg C. is drinking a Henderson Cup (Ides of February 2018) by Henderson Brewing Co at King & DufferinNot a NEIPA, IMO - colour is too dark & it’s not hazy or juicy enough - but a decent IPA with citrus & blackcurrant notes & good balance.
- Greg C. is drinking a Canadaland Sour by Mascot Brewery at King & DufferinNotes of lemon and sour peach, bit of unsweetened yoghurt. Light bodied, thin carbonation, medium length finish. Simple but not bad.
- Greg C. is drinking a Hopsteiner 360 by Brunswick Bierworks at King & DufferinComes across as a hoppy golden ale, but with clean lager crispness in the middle & citrus finish. Doesn’t seem as strong as actual abv.
- Greg C. is drinking a Buenos Dias by Beau's All Natural Brewing Company at King & DufferinLet’s be honest - this ain’t a gruit. It’s a summery gose-ish sort of thing with nice spritzy citrus flavour. And that’s just fine.
