VICTORIA, BC – Phillips Brewing has announced that one of its longest-standing core brands is now available in cans for the first time.
Slipstream Ale (5% abv) is described as follows:
Pours a deep copper colour and features a full, malty and round body. The nose is slightly nutty. Smooth mouth feel and a sweet brown sugar taste with hints of toasted hazelnuts. Co-operative fluid dynamic techniques result in a beer that is greater than the sum of its parts.
Previously available in bottles and on draught, Slipstream is now being distributed in 355 ml cans, available at Phillips and select private liquor stores.

- Greg C. is drinking a Saturday Night Lumberjack by Barn Hammer Brewing Company at King & DufferinDarker & maltier than most modern DIPAs, but still plenty bitter as well. Brings to mind Arrogant Bastard, but a bit lighter on the palate.
- Greg C. is drinking a 191 Mӓrzen - Across the Nation by Red Racer at King & DufferinProperly malty with notes of breadcrust and caramel, herbal hops to balance. About 9 months from canning but it held up surprisingly well.
- Greg C. is drinking a Three Ring Circus by Block Three Brewing Co. at King & Dufferin3+ years old & showing its age so forgoing a rating to be fair. Seems like there’s probably a good beer behind the oxidization, though.
- Greg C. is drinking an Imagination Experiment Root Beer Stout by Dominion City Brewing Co. at Bar Hop BrewcoAroma & flavour are all about the root beer. Which is just fine for a root beer fanatic like me. Might be a bit much for others.
- Greg C. is drinking a Leave No Trace Pale Ale by Dominion City Brewing Co. at Bar Hop BrewcoHazy straw yellow. Light bodied, grainy character with top notes of citrus peel & green hop. “Crushable” I suppose but not much beyond that.
