VANCOUVER, BC – Powell Brewery has announced details of its latest limited edition beer release.
Norwegian Sun Hazy Oat IPA (6.5% abv, 43 IBU) is described as follows:
A Hazy IPA fermented with Norwegian Voss Kveik yeast and dry-hopped with a generous dose of El Dorado and Columbus. The yeast provides aromas of peach and subtle spice, while the hops contribute flavours and aromas of tropical fruit, pineapple, mango, stone fruit and pear.
Norwegian Sun will be released tomorrow (March 9th) in the Powell tasting room and retail store, and will be distributed to local private liquor stores starting next week.

- Greg C. is drinking a Streetcar Delay IPA by The Six Brewing Co. at King & DufferinFirst batch from new brewer Chris Tower still has the good balance of earlier versions, but with more oomph and bounce to the hops. Great!
- Greg C. is drinking a Rhubarb Saison by Wellington Brewery at King & DufferinAs when I first tried it in 2017, I don’t find much rhubarb in this beer. But it’s a nice - albeit fairly simple - saison that refreshes.
- Greg C. is drinking a TONNE (Bottle-Conditioned) by Great Lakes Brewery at King & DufferinEvidence of barrel aging is nicely presented via notes of white wine & touches of oak & funk. Finish is dry & masks high abv very well.
- Greg C. is drinking a South Etobicoke Brewers Collab #1 by Great Lakes Brewery at King & DufferinTropical fruit cocktail, juicy grapefruit & tangerine, a touch of pine - basically everything expected from a great NE pale ale.
- Greg C. is drinking a Meanwhile... Down In Moxee by Great Lakes Brewery at King & DufferinStarts with lots of fruit - mango, papaya, tangerine, pineapple & more - but finish is oddly sharp, leaving a less positive final impression
