Happy Halloween! Our pumpkin ales may be gone, but we have plenty of scary craft beer, wine and spirits to fuel your Halloween fun, like Rogue’s Dead Guy Ale for instance. Stop in and see what’s on hand!
In the meantime, here are our tasting notes for the latest craft beer and cider arrivals.
Sea Cider Sassamanash Cranberry Hibiscus Cider 9.
Cooler weather means its time for the dark beers to start rolling in. We’ve put together a really cool selection of porters, stouts, dark ales, black lagers, red ales and even a very iconic ice bock (strong German-style lager) in our latest BEER MAIL featuring all 473ml tall cans. This one is for craft beer drinkers who prefer heartier, maltier brews, as these have very little in the way of a strong hop profile. For one great price you’ll get 12 473ml cans of these rich, flavourful brews. It’s just $53.56 plus shipping, sent anywhere in BC!
We offer a flat shipping charge of just $20 for Expedited Canada Post delivery anywhere in BC! FREE delivery to Victoria area addresses.
Remember, this box will only be available for two weeks, or until it’s sold out. Sorry, no substitutions.
Please note: Beer Mail orders can only be accepted from BC addresses. Orders must be placed during our hours of operation (10 am to 9 pm, 7 days a week), per liquor control and licensing terms and conditions.
(PLEASE NOTE: This Wine Mail is SOLD OUT and no longer available.)
It is hard to believe that ten years have passed since we evolved from a VQA wine store to a full service liquor outlet. In that time, the local craft beer industry has exploded, and we subsequently started offering Beer Mail so people could take advantage of our unique selection without driving to Fairfield.
Since so many of our new craft beer arrivals are tall cans, we wanted to just reiterate that anytime you buy four or more of these 473ml cans, you get a 5% discount! You can use one of our handy plastic widgets to snap together your own custom mixed 4-pack.
One of the many features that makes our Loyalty Program unique is the opportunity for our members to redeem points for amazing concerts at both Capital Ballroom and Lucky Bar. These two local venues host some of the finest local and touring talent on Vancouver Island. If there’s a cool band coming to Vancouver Island, chances are it will be at one of these two places.
Our first tall-can BEER MAIL was a huge hit, so we’re back with another one that’s all hopped up! This one is mostly IPAs and Double IPAs (with one double dry-hopped pale ale thrown in for good measure), so this is definitely for the hopheads. As you can see, hoppy beers are still the toast of the craft beer world. We’ve included some beauties in this from breweries that have distinguished themselves brewing the style: Twin Sails, Boombox, Backcountry, Yellow Dog, Parallel 49, Steel & Oak, Category 12, Parkside and many more! The nice thing about tall cans is they are a standard pint in volume, plus they are lighter and more portable than bombers. Cans also keep the beer fresher, and we guarantee you there’s no “tinny” taste to any of these great brews. In this very affordable IPA/DIPA package you’ll get one 473ml can of each of these 12 beers for just $62.25 plus shipping, sent anywhere in BC!

October rocks! This is an interesting time for new craft beer releases, as we are getting both pumpkin ales and fresh-hopped ales—both of which come and go quickly. Lots of interesting imports arriving from both the US and Europe, as well.
The BC craft beer industry has gone tall-can crazy, so we figured it was time to try out an all-tall can (473ml) BEER MAIL, since fewer and fewer breweries are doing 650ml bombers these days. The nice thing about tall cans is they are a standard pint in volume, plus they are lighter and more portable than bombers. Cans also keep the beer fresher, and we guarantee you there’s no “tinny” taste to any of these great brews. Additionally, instead of getting 2 bottles each of 6 beers, we’ve put together a diverse selection of 12 different brews—including a couple of recently released “fresh hop” beers—from some of BC’s finest breweries: Twin Sails, Boombox, Superflux, Driftwood, Strange Fellows, Category 12, Phillips, Doan’s, Ravens, Strathcona and more! Volume wise, this Beer Mail box is the equivalent to approximately nine 650ml bombers, but it’s considerably less expensive and we’ve even dropped the shipping, because cans are lighter! Plus, because we always offer a 5% discount any time you purchase 4 or more tall cans, you’ll get that discount here, as well! So, in this very affordable package you’ll get one 473ml can of each of these 12 beers for just $55.60 plus shipping, sent anywhere in BC!

Even though Thanksgiving is all about food and family, some great libations to accompany them will make both a lot better! We will be open our regular hours (10 am to 10 pm) every day of the long weekend and are here to help you with any pairing suggestions.
As you can see below, the first fresh-hopped/wet-hopped brews have arrived, including the industry standard Driftwood Sartori Harvest Wet-Hopped IPA. Brewers are doing some interesting things this year with fresh hops, including a wild ale (C12), a pale ale with grape must (Phillips) and even a blonde IPA (R & B).
