SQUAMISH, BC – This year’s edition of Father John’s Winter Ale from Howe Sound Brewing is now available.
Described as “a rich, malty seasonal ale […] made with 4 different types of malts, Nugget and Hallertau hops, and a complex blend of spices,” Father John’s is named after John Mitchell, the original brewmaster at Howe Sound, and one of the pioneers of Canada’s craft brewing industry.
Father John’s Winter Ale is available in 1 litre bottles, and on draught at select licensed establishments. It will remain available until the end of January.

- Greg C. is drinking a Cavalier Bleu by Beau's All Natural Brewing Company at King & DufferinDidn’t like this at all to start. But then the blueberry+hops combo started to work for me, and I quite enjoyed it. Glad I stuck with it!
- Greg C. is drinking a Henderson Cup (Ides of February 2018) by Henderson Brewing Co at King & DufferinNot a NEIPA, IMO - colour is too dark & it’s not hazy or juicy enough - but a decent IPA with citrus & blackcurrant notes & good balance.
- Greg C. is drinking a Canadaland Sour by Mascot Brewery at King & DufferinNotes of lemon and sour peach, bit of unsweetened yoghurt. Light bodied, thin carbonation, medium length finish. Simple but not bad.
