VANCOUVER, BC – Beer blog Pint Sighs reports that another new brewery is coming to Vancouver, with Powell Street Craft Brewery aiming to open this summer.
According to an interview with brewery president, founder and brewer David Bowkett, Powell Street will be a small scale nano-brewery in an area of Vancouver that is already home to three other small breweries. He is planning to launch in August with two flagship beers – an American Pale Ale and an IPA – to be available on draught in local bars and restaurants, and in bottles at select liquor stores.
More details will be announced as available on the Powell Street website and Facebook page.

- Greg C. is drinking a Trappist Holiday Ale by Spencer Brewery at King & Dufferin1+ year old bottle. Aroma of port and spice, notes that follow in the flavour plus cherry & menthol. Some booze heat despite the age. Nice.
- Greg C. is drinking an Oude Geuze (Vieille) by Brouwerij Oud Beersel at King & DufferinNot as lip-puckeringly sour or mind-bendingly complex as some lambics, but still an old fave that I always enjoy.
- Greg C. is drinking a No Love Lost Sour Cherry Saison by Mascot Brewery at King & DufferinDelivers what the name promises - a rather good Saison laced with sour cherry that is unmistakably present but not overpowering.
- Greg C. is drinking a Coffee Oatmeal Stout by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinSurprisingly good for a 20-month-old bottle. Coffee is still nice & punchy, good notes of chocolate, oats & nuts in the background.
- Greg C. is drinking a Dueces by Mascot Brewery at King & DufferinPretty much a textbook IIPA with no especially distinctive qualities. Finish is a bit harsh, but could be evidence of the high abv. It’s OK.
