VICTORIA, BC – Spinnakers Gastro Brewpub has announced in its latest newsletter that its annual holiday beer will soon be returning.
Spinnakers Festive Saison is a 5.5% abv saison that features a new label this year, as well as a new recipe. It’s described as “a light, spicy table saison brewed with just a hint of cinnamon, ginger, allspice, nutmeg and cloves, evoking a classic holiday pudding.”
Festive Saison will be available later this month on draught and in growlers at the Spinnakers brewpub, and in bottles at select liquor stores in BC.

- Greg C. is drinking a Collective Project: IPA No. 8 by Collective Arts Brewing at King & DufferinI honestly can’t add much to what the commercial description already tells you, except to say that it’s excellent.
- Greg C. is drinking a Brett Peach by Burdock at King & Dufferin2+ years old but still lively & effervescent. Brett notes have a mild funk that mingles nicely with the peach that remains. A nice treat!
- Greg C. is drinking an Ebb & Flow by Muskoka Brewery at King & DufferinIt has a nice tart citrus character - notably lime - and is clean & refreshing on the palate. The finish is a bit wan & watery, though.
- Greg C. is drinking a Hazy Little Thing by Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. at King & DufferinRight on the mark for the style - hazy appearance, soft on the palate, aroma & flavour of tropical fruit & sweet citrus. Quite nice.
- Greg C. is drinking a Toute Est Dans Toute by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinNot the most complex or experimental beer either of the breweries have made, but a nice rustic saison with a slightly fruity funkiness.
