new beers from bomber brewing:

MÄRZEN ATTACKS! NICE BEER, WE'LL TAKE IT!
BOMBER MÄRZEN, Amber Lager: Märzen means "March" beer but you may prefer to
enjoy this august, medium-bodied German lager all year round. A smooth maltiness and
clean, dry finish make this the perfect bier for all occasions - any time of year!

 
About Bomber Märzen Amber Lager:
Aroma: A slight toasted malt aroma, underpinned by the very German
presence of Munich malt.
Appearance: Orange-red in colour. Clear and bright.
Flavour: An early sweet maltiness precedes a soft, dry finish. 'Dark Munich'
provides a slight toasted character. Moderate noble hop bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Smooth and creamy with a light to medium body.
ABV = 5.5%
Original Gravity = 1.055
Bitterness = 20 IBU
Colour = 9 SRM
Bomber Märzen Amber Lager is available now in kegs,
650ml bottles, & on tap in the Bomber Brewing tasting room.
About Bomber Brewing:
Located on the eastside, Bomber Brewing is one of
Vancouver's up and coming new craft breweries.
With three flagship beers in cans and ever-rotating
seasonals, Bomber Brewing has a beer for everyone.



HOP LOVERS SURE TO SWARM BOMBER BREWING FOR NEW DOUBLE IPA
SUPERPEST Double IPA: An homage to Bomber hockey teammate and Odds frontman,
Craig 'Superpest' Northey whose ethic on the ice is always, "Lead by example".
That directive is deftly delivered in this, our Double IPA, so only Pacific Northwest hops,
Centennial, Chinook, and Columbus, and BC-malted 2-row barley are good enough to
echo the Superpest name. So that's what we use.

 
About Superpest:
Appearance: Presents a golden, orangish hue. Abundant, off-white head.
Clear with slight haze from dry-hopping.
Flavour: Soft bitterness produces a non-cloying landing on the palette.
Tangy hints of grapefruit rind linger on the side of the tongue.
Mouthfeel: Medium body. Smooth and warming.
ABV = 7.5%
Original Gravity = 1.075
Bitterness = 80 IBU
Colour = 8 SRM
Superpest is available now in kegs, 650ml bottles,
and on tap in the Bomber Brewing tasting room.

brewing up gender parity

My article on gender parity is on the Growler website! BREWING UP GENDER PARITY: THE QUEST FOR BEERQUALITY REBECCA WHYMAN •  JUNE 13, 2019 Women are markedly underrepresented in craft beer. This is not news to anyone. But have you ruminated on just how large the gender gap is?  A 2018 survey by Nielsen-Harris  found American craft beer drinkers are 68.5 per cent male and 31.5 per cent female. Closer to home,  BeerMeBC’s 2018 survey  had those numbers at 71 and 29 per cent, with 0.32 per cent identifying as “other.” For those not so strong in the math department, that means that there are only three women drinking craft beer for every seven men. If you were a straight man looking for a date, you wouldn’t like those odds at all. And I can tell you, as one of those three women, it’s not much fun being outnumbered everywhere I go to enjoy my beloved craft beer, delightful as those seven men may be. Drinking craft beer is the easy part—when we move into the sections of craft

zywiec polish beer

and now for something completely different a polish beer! zywiec - and i have no idea how to pronounce that! its poland's #1 premium beer (according to the bottle) it has a thermometer label when you can see the name in colour, its the right temperature to drink sounds a bit too much like those darned mountains that turn blue when the piss-poor mass market beer is cold enough to not give you any indication of its stinky nose but i digress... pours wonderfully clear light caramel colour nice head on the vigourous pour 5.5% this is a lager i can get into! crisp and mildly hopped its everything a pilsner should be and its delicious a great session beer on the bottle:  "since 1856 this premium beer has been brewed according to the original zywiec brewer's recipe from the best natural ingredients.  contains finest malted barley, choicest hops and pure mountain water." no clue what the website says as its in polish but wikipedia has this little histor

LABEL OF LOVE: THE CREATIVE WORLD OF MODERN BEER CAN ART REBECCA WHYMAN •  OCTOBER 15, 2018 Clockwise from top left: Electric Bicycle Brewing Co.; Mikkeller’s Hallo Ich Bin Berliner Weisee; the beer label artwork of Vancouver artist Patrick Wong; Superflux’s Superfluousness. Contributed/file photos You can’t help it, I can’t help it—we all judge beers by their labels, maybe as much as we judge the beer itself. Beer labels have been around for ages: 83 years on cans, and much longer than that on bottles. It appears we’ve been loving beer labels for that whole time—just check out all the vintage labels you can buy on eBay! Doesn’t it seem, though, that we’re loving beer labels extra hard right now? Maybe it’s that size matters. Beer cans, especially those tall boys, offer lots of real estate for labelling. Large-format bottles provide a sizeable canvas as well. Maybe it’s as simple as habituation. Humans aren’t that different from crows; we’re attracted to bright, shiny obje
