BC Craft Beer Month
Friday, September 9th, 2011 | Beer | 4 Comments
There have already been two Vancouver Craft Beer Weeks and now there is going to be a BC Craft Beer Month. Apparently October is to become craft beer month this year and every year, featuring events and specials at many BC craft beer venues. All I know of this I learned from the website, which I found out about because one of my friend’s made it. BC craft beer fans should surely keep an eye on the site to see what awesomeness appears.
Cheers,

Dix Brewery Closing Down?
Tuesday, April 27th, 2010 | Beer | 8 Comments
I just heard via an invite to the Four Beers and a Funeral Brewpub Crawl, a VCBW event, that Dix Brewery is closing down permanently. Can anyone confirm if this is true and why? As far as I can tell, Dix does booming good business so I doubt the reasons are financial (just try getting a table before a Canucks game).
If Dix is indeed closing down permanently in a few weeks time, this is sad news to say the least. Dix Cask Thursdays, Dix Caskival events, and pre-sporting event beer drinking will all be sorely missed. I spent a good part of the Olympics at Dix and I can’t imagine it not being there when I return to Vancouver. At least I’ll always have the memories of the good times.
Anyway, apparently the pub crawl will feature a march from Steamworks to Dix where a Dix Funeral will be held, then onto Yaletown and Dockside. Tickets are $65 and include beer and food. If Dix was special to you, now’s your chance to say goodbye with a rip roaring good party.
Cheers.
Chris
