Event: Beer Wars

beerwars


The Canadian craft beer movement faces many similar challenges to the U.S. in terms of battling big corporate entities and fighting for fair regulation. CAMRA BC, a local consumer advocacy group for craft beer is hosting a screening of the movie Beer Wars, a documentary on the battles that the craft brewing community has experienced in the United States. If British Columbia is to join the ranks of the craft beer elite, it needs to learn from the fight of our cousin brewers in the U.S. I should also mention that your ticket price includes the cost of all the beer you wish, being poured by some of BC's top craft brewers.
Here are the details:
