These newest arrivals may provide you with some inspiration. BC has more great craft breweries than ever before and our selection of local beers continues to grow.
Green Leaf Burning Rock 5% 650ml (Vancouver)
Pours a burnt orange colour. On the nose you get notes of peat, smoke and minerals. Smells something like a Scotch ale. Continues on the palate with caramelized malt notes and hints of smoke and grainy malt. Light-bodied yet quite flavorful and complex. Super drinkable. Two Rufus Paws Up from: Glenn
Green Leaf Les Saisonniers 5% 650ml (Vancouver)
Pours a brownish orange colour. Floral notes of ripe melon skin, honey, spice and a little funk on the nose. Great classic saison yeast notes on the palate, with plenty of peppery spice and tartness. Pleasant dry, bitter finish. Very drinkable and refreshing.
