SQUAMISH, BC – In addition to the previously mentioned Father John’s Winter Ale and Gathering Storm Cascadian Dark Ale, Howe Sound Brewing has one more limited edition brew available for winter.
Woolly Bugger is described as “a rich dark amber barleywine brewed in extremely limited quantities”, and checks it at 11% abv and 75 IBUs, making it a strong and hoppy ale.
Woolly Bugger is available exclusively at the Howe Sound Brew Pub, both on tap and in a run of 6 oz bottles.

- 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.
