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 an Ikinuki Ungespundetes Kellerbier by Godspeed Brewery at Bar Hop BrewcoGood lager with strong malt base but heavy hit of hops as well. Good body, full but not heavy. A pleasure to drink.
- Greg C. is drinking an After Hours: Raspberry Sour by PEI Brewing Company (Gahan) at King & DufferinSurprised to find this treat from my home province at the LCBO. Very good raspberry sour with natural tasting tart berry flavour.
- Greg C. is drinking a Breakfast Stout by Founders Brewing Co. at King & DufferinClose to 2 years old. A bit oxidized but still everything you expect from FBS - chocolate, coffee, tasted oats & more. Always a classic.
- Greg C. is drinking a Monks' Reserve Ale by Spencer Brewery at King & DufferinDoesn’t have the depth of a Belgian Trappist, but for a New World take on a Quad, it’s very good with strong malt base & nice spice notes.
- Greg C. is drinking an Extra Brut Ipa by 3 Brasseurs | 3 Brewers at The 3 BrewersHits the target for what I expect from the style - very dry, effervescent, aromatic, refreshing & quick to drink. Well done!
