VANCOUVER, BC – Granville Island Brewery have announced the release of their winter seasonal beer, Lions Winter Ale, for another year:
Lions Winter Ale combines premium Crystal, Vienna and Munich malt with aromatic specialty Wilamette, Czech and German Spalt hops, which give the beer a rich and robust body. The vanilla-like finish of this robust ale is a great excuse to get out of the cold and enjoy this beer made from the finest natural ingredients.
Lions Winter Ale is available now at select bars and stores in and around Vancouver.

- Greg C. is drinking a Blurrryy by MERIT Brewing at King & DufferinCreamsicle notes to start, with grapefruit and pine sneaking up behind & coming on stronger as it warms up. Long bitter finish. Great!
- Greg C. is drinking a Hibiscus Sour by Side Launch Brewing at King & DufferinHibiscus & rosehip is a flavour combo I usually enjoy, and that’s def the case here, as both mesh well with the lemon-leaning base sour.
- 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!
