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 Kölsch by Burdock at BurdockAn absolutely bang-on Kölsch - crisp, clear, herbal, hint of bread crust, clean finish - and served in a proper stange. Gorgeous.
- Greg C. is drinking a Tropic Like It's Hop by Innis & Gunn at King & DufferinPassionfruit doesn’t really stand out in this, but it’s still a nice & refreshing pale ale. Would just like the flavour to pop a bit more.
- Greg C. is drinking a Chocolate Milk Stout by Wellington Brewery at King & DufferinSeems like maybe the chocolate has been dialed back a bit, and that’s ok - it’s better balanced & doesn’t seem nearly as strong the abv.
- Greg C. is drinking an Icebreaker by Whitewater Brewing Co. at King & DufferinThe nuances of the Brut style still elude me, but this seems sufficiently dry with notes of citrus and green grape. Too hazy, though.
- Greg C. is drinking a Summerweiss Tropical Wheat by Muskoka Brewery at King & DufferinI could be wrong, but the fruit flavours seem a bit duller this year. They’re still there, but are secondary to the weissbier notes.
