From the pioneer brewers of the Gold Rush to the recent renaissance of craft brewing, British Columbia enjoys its own distinct place in the production of the universal beverage – beer. Join Greg Evans to hear about Victoria’s and Vancouver Island’s place in this history – the story of the men and women who shaped our industry, the story of their breweries, their technological expertise, their challenges and the products that gained recognition far beyond our shores.
