SQUAMISH, BC – Howe Sound Brewing has announced the release of this year’s vintage of its multiple award-winning winter seasonal.
Woolly Bugger Barley Wine (11% abv, 50 IBU) is described as follows:
Coming in 2nd Place at this years BC Beer Awards our Woolly Bugger is a delicious Barley Wine with intense, rich flavours of plum, raisin and treacle. Each bomber is personally wax dipped so it can be cellared because it only gets better with age.
Woolly Bugger 2018 is available now in 650 bottles at the Howe Sound retail store, and soon select private liquor stores in British Columbia.

- Greg C. is drinking a Trash Panda by Parallel 49 Brewing Company at King & DufferinMore murky than hazy. Flavour is a bit muddled at first, but some nice fruit notes - peach, pineapple, mango - come through as it opens up.
- Greg C. is drinking a Too Wound Down by Bell City Brewing Company at King & DufferinI question the Session IPA classification given the fairly low IBU, but this is still a more than acceptable pale ale.
- Greg C. is drinking a RoboHop Imperial IPA by Great Lakes BreweryA modern classic of the IIPA style, at least in Ontario. Strong malt base supporting a blast of citrus, pine & tropical fruit hops.
- Greg C. is drinking a CAMP-OUT PILS Unfiltered by Muskoka Brewery at King & DufferinThe Motueka hops are similar enough to Saaz to fit this excellent Pils, but also have a citrus zest character that adds a unique edge.
- Greg C. is drinking a Trappist Ale by Spencer Brewery at King & DufferinStrong fruit preserve notes - esp. pineapple & peach - that lean a bit sweeter than my preference, but still improved from early days.
