VICTORIA, BC – With just over a week left to go in BC Craft Beer Month, Phillips Brewing has announced a “Super Massive Release” of three new limited edition beers to celebrate the festivities.
The beers featured in the release include…
Puzzler Black Belgian IPA (9.1%):
Crafted in collaboration with our friends at Great Lakes Brewing from Toronto, buckets of black malt give this beer a deep earthy-brown colour and a huge body. Generous portions of bittering hops add balance and tip the flavour profile definitively to the hoppy side of the scale, while Belgian yeast endows the collaborative brew with a slightly spicy undertone.
Eric Jourdan’s Northwest Amber Ale (6.2%):
Who says you need a brewery to make great beer? Eric Jourdan is one of the winners of CAMRA Victoria’s Home Brew Competition, and won the opportunity to come into Phillips and brew his creation in our brewhouse! His home brewed Northwest Amber Ale is a testament to brewing skill whether your brewhouse is in a brewery or a basement.
Green Reaper Fresh Hop IPA (6.5%):
Freshly harvested Willamette hops went from bine to beer in less than 24 hours in this newly minted Fresh Hop annual release. It’s a craft beer apparition sent to show you the impact that fresh hops can make as it guides your taste buds to the aftertaste.
All three beers are available now in 650 ml bottles at select private liquor retailers in BC and at the Phillips retail store while supplies last.
