When people find out we are into beer we inevitably get asked one question, that being “what’s your favorite beer?”  The trouble is, we never know what to say.  It’s a tall task to pick one favorite from all of the great beers out there.

I have a really hard time picking favorites.  I worry that I’ll be judged harshly for picking one beer above all others.  I never want a friend to buy a beer I recommend and be put off, because everybody has their own tastes. There are many factors that go into choosing the right beer for an occasion and so many styles to choose from, how do I pick just one?

If anyone ventures to take our tastes seriously, I’ve created a new Favorites page where we’ll periodically list some of our favorite beers.  This may come in handy when purchasing gifts for us, which you should feel free to do at any time.

Just this past week I drank the Old Yale Pale Ale I picked up when I stopped by Old Yale in Chilliwack earlier this month.  It is one of the best pale ales I’ve ever had and has made its way onto my favorite list.  Old Yale is a small brewery that I find is largely ignored, but I feel like BC beer drinkers should be giving it a lot more attention.

If you have a favorite beer that you think we should try, please let us know.  We’d love to try it.

Cheers,

Chris
