KELOWNA, BC – Tree Brewing has become the first brewery in Western Canada to release their beer in 500 ml cans.
Starting this week, single cans of Thirsty Beaver Amber Ale and Kelowna Pilsner will be available across British Columbia and Alberta, with 4-packs to follow this summer.
Tree is also supporting their community in this intiative by teaming up with other local businesses to bring the cans to market. Local graphic designer Mark McCann created the package design, and Bullseye Packaging is providing the shrink wrapping for the upcoming 4-packs.

- Greg C. is drinking a Feels Like Friday by Royal Canadian Mead at King & DufferinBuckwheat honey sits in good balance on a cider-like base. But as with most hopped ciders, I question if hops are really needed in a mead.
- Greg C. is drinking a Daywalker by Rainhard Brewing at Duke's Refresher + BarSeems lighter than I remember in colour & body. Still packed with flavour though. Nice lingering lemon peel & pine notes.
- Greg C. is drinking an Edelhell by Hacker-Pschorr at Otto's BierhalleI’ve been getting into a lager groove lately, mostly locals, but it’s good to revisit the classics once in a while. Prost!
- Greg C. is drinking a Mind On My Honey by Siren Craft Brew at Collective Arts BrewingAt Liquid Art Fest. Honey & smoky chilies in an Imperial stout sounds like a train wreck but this beer pulls it off beautifully.
- Greg C. is drinking a Proto 31: Imp Stout W. Cardamon & Tonka Beans by Brewski at Collective Arts BrewingAt Liquid Art Fest. A whole helluva a lot of cardamom up in here. That’s ok, I like that. Drinks frighteningly easy for its abv.
I hope this goes well for Tree so that we might see some Hop Head or Cutthroat in the tall cans some time in the future.
