CHARLOTTETOWN, PE – The Guardian reports that Prince Edward Island’s five breweries – PEI Brewing/Gahan House, Upstreet, Barnone, Moth Lane, and Copper Bottom – have come together to form the PEI Craft Brewers Alliance.
According to the article, representatives of the breweries met in Charlottetown last month and discussed topics including “regional taxation policies, marketing to grow craft beer in the province and working with liquor boards across the country.”
No other details of the organization have been announced at this time, aside from the members’ intention to meet twice a year.

- Greg C. is drinking a Not A Word Spoken - Apricot IPA by Wellington Brewery at King & DufferinExactly what I expect from a hazy IPA made with Simcoe & Citra hops and laced with apricot - i.e. big, bright, juicy, aromatic.
- Greg C. is drinking a Stout by Big Drop Brewing Co at King & DufferinThe low abv is betrayed somewhat by the light body, but the flavour is that of a proper pub stout - cocoa, coffee, slight smoky tang. Nice!
- Greg C. is drinking a Vintage Ale (2016) by Fuller, Smith & Turner at King & DufferinPort & plum preserves up front, touch of leather, good balance through the middle, bit warm in the finish.
- Greg C. is drinking an Ikinuki Ungespundetes Kellerbier by Godspeed Brewery at Bar Hop BrewcoGood lager with strong malt base but heavy hit of hops as well. Good body, full but not heavy. A pleasure to drink.
- Greg C. is drinking an After Hours: Raspberry Sour by PEI Brewing Company (Gahan) at King & DufferinSurprised to find this treat from my home province at the LCBO. Very good raspberry sour with natural tasting tart berry flavour.
