VICTORIA, BC – Phillips Brewing has released two new seasonal beers for the winter months, Instigator and Deadhead:
To get things started right, you can count on the infamous Instigator. This colossal doppelbock is named for the beloved bottling machine that got the Phillips Brewing Company up and running. The dark lager is ready to take on all who dare challenge this stubborn goat.
After locking horns with the Instigator, it’s time to set sail with the Deadhead Barley Wine. This malty auburn brew weighs in at 10 percent alcohol, is best served at 8 degrees C and will certainly warm your cheeks.
Both beers are available now in selected beer and wine stores in Victoria and area, as well as at the brewery store.

- Greg C. is drinking an Uninvisible by Thin Man Brewery at Cask Days 2018Well constructed wild ale with a nice hit of Meyer lemon. Elegant, and not well suited to a festival honestly. Needs more devoted attention.
- Greg C. is drinking a Gin Gimlet by Cascade Brewing Company (USA) at Cask Days 2018Phenomenal aroma of lime sherbet and juniper. Flavour is less intense but more complex. Lingering lime, odd & welcome hint of ginger.
- Greg C. is drinking an Export Stout - V4 - CherryBerry by Indie Alehouse at Cask Days 2018Don’t dig this as much as Ralph’s Nuts. (Never thought I’d write those words in that order...) Cherry doesn’t really mesh with the beer.
- Greg C. is drinking an Export Stout - V3 - Ralph's Nuts by Indie Alehouse at Cask Days 2018Holy schmoly! Aroma of rich chocolate syrup and cookies. Flavour follows - big & sweet & rich & chocolatey. Super duper sugar rush!
- Greg C. is drinking a Rage & Love Tangerine & Passionfruit by Rainhard Brewing at Cask Days 2018I don’t usually think of Rainhard as a sour beer brewery, but they do a nice job with them. Flavours are well integrated with this one.
