Granville Island Tasting Friday May 1st!!

May Day!! May Day!!

Granville Island Brewing will be holding a tasting between 4 and 8 pm at the Hillside Liquor Store, with resident beer guru Lou.
In case you haven't tried Granville's newest brew- the Brockton IPA- come on down for a sample!
The Brockton IPA is available in 6 pack bottles and cans (perfect for outdoor activities!) and was brewed to celebrate Granville Island's 25th anniversary.
This is a West Coast style IPA, golden coloured and well-hopped with notes of citrus and grapefruit followed by a slight bitterness and a crisp refreshing aftertaste leaving you wanting another sip.

The second beer to be tasted is the Granville Island Cypress Honey, available in 6 or 12 pack bottles. The Cypress Honey is a classic Granville Island beer, lightly hopped with a hint of Fraser Valley honey.

The third beer to be tasted will be a mystery pick, decided only the moment the tasting begins.
