VANCOUVER, BC – Russell Brewing has expanded their distribution to Alberta for the first time with the release of their Cream Ale and Cactus Lime Lager in all Cactus Club Cafe locations, as well as distribution of the Cactus Lime Lager in Liquor Depot and Liquor Barn outlets.
According to Brian Harris, CEO, “This is a phased introduction of our product portfolio. We have been waiting until we had the production capacity to properly service Alberta and we are now in that position.”

- Greg C. is drinking an Infinite Offering by Kensington Brewing Company at Kensington Brewing CompanySubtle smoke. Juniper & white pepper & lemongrass. Back-of-throat dryness that encourages another swig. Complex but quaffable. Very good.
- Greg C. is drinking a Sour IPA W/ Lactose by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinDon’t usually like lactose in pale ales but this one works. Not too sweet or milky, soft body, great balance of tart pineapple & citrus.
- Greg C. is drinking a Mad & Noisy Orange Pale Ale by Creemore Springs at King & DufferinCall a beer Orange Pale Ale & I expect a good hit of orange, not a faint hint in a malt-forward pale ale. Not bad, but worse - it’s boring.
- Greg C. is drinking a Food Truck Beer by Henderson Brewing Co at King & DufferinA malty and relatively sweet ale that is easy to drink and causes no offense. Not really my bag, but perfectly fine for what it is.
- Greg C. is drinking a Metaxis: Apricot by Folly Brewpub at King & DufferinStarts with some subtle complexity, nice combo of mellow brett & apricot, then BOOM! super-sharp sourness through the middle & finish.
