New Arrivals from Brasserie Caulier & Dubuisson
Summer Sippin'

Brasserie Caulier has just shipped us a couple of incredible summer beers and we scored a few bottles of Scaldis Blonde Tripel.

604355 Paix Dieu Special, an Abbaye Strong Ale with 10% alc/vol, 12*750ml per case wholesaling at $7.10 per bottle. Paix Dieu (Peace God) is the only abbey beer brewed the nights of full moon. This beer was formerly produced at the abbey of Peace God, and the lunar calendar played a central role. In order to maintain the soul of the abbey, the brewery must produce this beer only once per month, the nights of full moon. The result? A tripel of 10% creamy and full of character; an artisanal beer in the purest tradition of Belgian beers of abbey. Each bottle is vintage to help you compare each mash tun.

693770 Bon Secours Blueberry is a delicious Belgian Fruit Beer with 7% alc/vol, 24*330ml bottles per case and wholesales for $3.50 per bottle. Blueberry Bon Secours is a traditional beer which has been fermented three times and is brewed with... View Full Post »

BCLDB Hikes Prices Again
June 28 another big price hike

OK........it's time. Gotta' rant!

On April 1 the BCLDB released it's new pricing strategy. It may have looked like prices in BCLDB stores decreased at this time because they deleted the 5% GST and 10% PST from the shelf price so things looked good until you got up to the till and all the taxes were added back on. It was then you could see that the majority of prices actually increased.

These retail prices lasted about a month then the BCLDB raised quite a few prices (24% of my portfolio) not only on products sold in their stores but on products sold to the hospitality industry who now must pay full retail for every alcoholic beverage they purchase for resale. Why should prices be increased on products not even sold in BCLDB stores? This says nothing but money grab to me.

Now, I see on the BCLDB retail price list for the next period (June 28), they have raised the retail price of another 57% of the products in my portfolio. Only .05% of my... View Full Post »

Farmhouse Saison and Wild Ale Festival
A very unique beer festival at the UBC Farm
Saturday, June 27, 2015

We felt it was time for Vancouver to have a unique, style-forward festival. What makes Farmhouse Fest unique?

Well, let’s start with the experience of drinking great beer. We Chose Saisons and Wild Ales For a Reason Drinking a great beer is more than just putting the liquid into your mouth and swallowing. It’s an intense sensory event. Look at how the colour of the beer catches the sun’s rays. Listen to the faint pop of the slowly dissipating head. Stick your nose in the glass and breathe deeply. Faint hops? A bit of fruit? Maybe some acid? Then take a sip, close your eyes and enjoy the cool breeze blowing over you.

Hosting a festival outside isn’t just a location variable. It’s a deliberate decision made to reinforce the connection between what’s in your... View Full Post »
