New and Unique: Doan's Craft Brewing and Sons of Vancouver Altaretto
Well, we've been huge fans of Doan's ever since they were just a rumor-y being passed about in Yeast Van home-brewing circles.  We've enjoyed their German and Rye inspired goodness since day one, and have been pretty excited as they've upped their distribution game with bottles and tall cans.  Along the way, we've enjoyed a handful of epic collaboration brew days with them as well.  So ya, we come by our fan buttons honestly.

New and Unique: Old Yale's Oak Aged Braggot Collab
We love Old Yale Brewing.  In the world of BC's craft brewing revolution, where many craft breweries are only a few years old, Old Yale is, relatively speaking, an industry veteran.  Old Yale opened in 1999, and has been a solid Chilliwack fixture ever since.
