VICTORIA, BC – Phillips Brewing has brought back a popular seasonal beer in a new edition, and has also renamed one of the beers in the regular Phillips line-up:
- Double Dragon Imperial Red Ale is a limited edition 8.2% brew with “big body and hop/malt balance”. It’s available now at the brewery and select private liquor stores in BC.
- Black Toque India Dark Ale has undergone a facelift and will now be known as Skookum Cascadian Brown Ale. It’s also available at the brewery and private stores, as well as BC Liquor Stores.

- Greg C. is drinking a Hickson Porter Baltique by Brasserie Les 2 Frères at King & Dufferin2016 bottle. A bit oxidized but it works with the strong & malty beer. Dark caramel, coffee, burnt hazelnut, warm finish.
- Greg C. is drinking a 100th Meridian Organic Amber Lager by Mill Street Brewery at King & DufferinI agree with my assessment of the pre-organic version in Nov - it’s not as flavourful as in its early days. Perhaps even less so now.
- 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.
The Double Dragon has just been tasted/ reviewed and is a hit! http://tiny.cc/DUXVH Does anyone know if the Black Toque recipe was changed at all, or is it just a relabelling?
No change to the recipe for Black Toque, just a renaming.
