OLIVER, BC – Firehall Brewery co-owner and brewer Sid Ruhland has announced via Facebook that a beer brewed especially for his recent wedding is now available for the general public to try, but only for a limited time.
White Wedding Wheat Ale is described as follows:
Only 35% wheat, not enough protein to make it hazy, so even though it’s unfiltered, it still is a clear beer. Light and citrusy, fresh and slippery, it contains a wee bit of toasted coriander, local golden honey, & bittersweet orange peels, but fermented with an British ale yeast, so it’s not a hefeweizen, weissbier, or a witbier… just an easy-drinking wheat ale.
White Wedding is available while supplies last at the Firehall Bistro in Oliver and the Kettle Valley Station Pub in West Penticton.

- Greg C. is drinking a Put A Cherry On Hop - Across the Nation by Red Racer at King & Dufferin9 months old so hops have receded a bit, but the cherry notes are still there & have an interesting spiced character. Not very milky though.
- Greg C. is drinking a Breaking Point by Kensington Brewing Company at King & DufferinTicks all the boxes for the style - hazy, hoppy, juicy, full & soft on the palate. Hides the 8.5% very well. Nice stuff.
- Greg C. is drinking a Candle Burner by Wellington Brewery at King & DufferinI’m usually not a fan of coffee IPAs - the combo rarely works for me - but this hits the right balance with coffee that’s fruity not roasty.
- Greg C. is drinking a The Ugly by Henderson Brewing Co at King & DufferinDark & sweet Belgian ales aren’t usually my bag but this is a pretty good one. Notes of coffee, cocoa, dark cherry, bit of peppery yeast.
- Greg C. is drinking a Convergence w/ Strawberry, Rhubarb, Raspberry by Kensington Brewing Company at King & DufferinStrawberry is there, raspberry and rhubarb less so. Base beer isn’t overly sour but still a nice tartness. Mellow but enjoyable.
