VICTORIA, BC – Driftwood Brewery has just release the second annual edition of Old Cellar Dweller Barley Wine:
We boiled this brew for a full five hours to concentrate the wort sugars and produce a powerful ale indeed! Bright, fruity and super hoppy when young, this beer will gracefully age for years. With time the hop flavor and aroma fade, and are replaced with caramel and sherry notes. Enjoy now, and save a few for next year!

- Greg C. is drinking a Bumo (Version IV) by Burdock at King & DufferinNotes of red wine, cherry wood, fruit gums, elegant funk. Pretty special stuff.
- Greg C. is drinking a Peach Uber by Nickel Brook Brewing Co. at King & DufferinMy lack of enthusiasm for peach beverages makes this my least favourite Uber. But that said, it’s still a very good sour. Just not my thing.
- Greg C. is drinking a Shirley Street Sorbet Sour by Lot 30 Brewers at King & DufferinUsually not a fan of the strawberry-kiwi combo, but it works very well here. Vanilla also gives a nice balance to the lemony sourness.
- Greg C. is drinking a Gose-Zilla by Northern Maverick Brewing at King & DufferinSubdued at first but opens up as it warms. Lemon & lime zest, coriander, brackish salty backnote. Could be more refined but still good.
- Greg C. is drinking a Velvet Dreams by Folly Brewpub at King & DufferinTastes of black raspberries with backing vanilla and mildly sour base beer. Hint of spiced cherry as well. Simple but effective.
