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 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!
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.
