VANCOUVER, BC – Granville Island Brewing is getting set to release Irish Red, the latest addition to their Limited Release series of seasonal beers:
This unique beer style may be one of Ireland’s best kept secrets. Toffee-like in aroma, malty in flavour and copper in colour, Irish Red finishes clean and smooth, with a hint of Northwest hops to help get your Craic on when you’re not in Ireland.
Granville Island Irish Red will be released next Friday, February 18th, and will be available in 650 ml bottles exclusively at the Granville Island retail store.

- Greg C. is drinking a Social Parade DDH IPA by Black Lab Brewing at Black Lab BrewingOh, that’s dank. And delicious. Lotsa grapefruit, some ripe peach, hint of spruce. Drinks dangerously quickly for the abv.
- Greg C. is drinking a Sitting Pretty APA by Black Lab Brewing at Black Lab BrewingDelivers the dominant citrus promised in the description, along with some pine and a peppery backnote, perhaps from the rye.
- Greg C. is drinking a Raspberry Lemon Rosemary Kennel Sour by Black Lab Brewing at Black Lab BrewingStarts with raspberry, with lemon coming through in the middle, and rosemary sitting nicely in the finish. Super summer beverage.
- Greg C. is drinking a Li'l Hobo Hefeweizen by Black Lab Brewing at Black Lab BrewingNot as hazy as I expect from the style - it’s more Kristall than Hefe - but the banana & clove notes are there, along with a bit of lemon.
- Greg C. is drinking an Interstellar IPA by Forked River Brewing Company at King & DufferinDidn’t really dig this. Hops seemed stale & lifeless despite it being relatively fresh, and there’s a heavy stickiness on the palate. Odd.
