A couple of events

Thursday, July 23rd, 2009 | Events

There are some cool beer events happening in the lower mainland in the near future.  I found out about them via the CAMRA Vancouver email list and the CAMRA Vancouver Facebook group.  If you want to know the latest cool beer goings on, I suggest you join both the list and the group.  However, I wouldn’t stop there; I’d consider becoming a full fledged CAMRA member.  The $25 fee will quickly be recouped in savings and other perks, trust me, do it, join.  Now for the events:

  • Big Ridge in Surrey is hosting a Brewmaster’s Dinner on Tuesday the 28th at 7PM.  The dinner costs $40 and features four delicious courses, each paired with a tasty big ridge brew.  Learn more.
  • It is once again time for the annual Dix Summer Caskival, where many brewers bring a cask or two of their creations for us to enjoy in one spot.  The Caskival is August 8th from 12PM to 5PM and costs a mere $20.  I have not attended a Dix Caskival yet, but plan to make this my first.  Check out the beer lineup and other info here.

Cheers,

Chris

Erik, while surfing for Bottom feeding Yeasts in a Kombucha Mushroom Tea research, I ran across your Lambric Picture and since Lambric is a wild ferment and kombucha may be considered one also I would your permission to post your picture in a comparison. A link and credit would be cited as well.

Thank you,

Interesting connection, Ed. I’m going to see if some brewers I know would be interested in exploring the brewing of a Kombucha beer. Not sure if lambic is the appropriate style; we’ll see…
