Friday, March 13th, 2015
7:00 PM to 10:00 PM

Another panel discussion with some of BC’s brightest craft beer minds exploring what’s next for the province and for Victoria.

Our Craft Beer Revolution Town Hall event last year brought together some of BC’s most lively and influential craft beer characters. This year, we’ll be bringing a new cast of characters to the stage to discuss the exciting new development of neighbourhood breweries in Vancouver. We’ll also ask the question: what will craft beer in Victoria look like in 2020?

Hosted by the CBC’s Khalil Akhtar, expect some laughs, some discussion and some healthy investigation into what lies ahead for craft beer in BC. Joe Wiebe, the Thirsty Writer, will also be on hand to launch the fully revised second edition of his book Craft Beer Revolution: The Insider’s Guide to B.C. Breweries, which features all new material, including 90 brewery profiles, compared with 50 in the 2013 original edition.
