Another fine Festival!
Saturday March 8th, 6pm-10pm, College of New Caledonia
Minor name change (ours isn't the only Beer Festival in the Cariboo...), but a festival by any other name would still be a fun time - just 12 tickets shy of a 400 sell-out.
We've definitely found our home in the atrium of the Quesnel campus of the College of New Caledonia, just the right amount of space for 6 breweries, 2 cideries, and food vendor Cookie Bitz who had a blowout evening!
Marvellous range of styles and flavours from across the Cariboo and Prince George, but these were the ones that proved to be most popoular:
Bronze Award: Meadjito by Slaughterhouse Craft
Silver Award: Spiced Blood Orange Blond by Cask & Cleaver Brewing (narrowly missing a Gold three-repeat)
Gold Award: Elderberry Dark Sour by Deadfall Brewing
Some decent pictures of the event (click here), even from the photobooth!
Admission by ticket only - $50, available at Westside Liquor Store in West Park Mall (cash only)
What does your ticket buy you?
- admission
- a 5oz Belgian-style sample glass to keep and treasure
- a delicious Craig's Table burger
- 5 sample tickets (more available for $5 each or 3-for-$10 - cash only)
- entry for multiple door prizes (every one of of our breweries and cideries brings something)
Sorry kids - no minors allowed!

We've asked all to bring at least 3 of their finest, so you'll have plenty of choice from which to find your favourites...and have the chance to vote for your top three - our Viking friends from Cask & Cleaver are going for an unprecedented 3-peat in Gold Certificate wins!

(be sure to bring some extra cash for Cookie Bitz!)
As if all the choice wasn't enough, we'll also have "DJ Scotty-Scott" setting the mood, and a photo-booth to capture your memories. And at the end of the evening, we encourage everyone to have a designated driver or make use of our Safe Ride Home service, sponsored by AC&D Insurance Services
