Street Car
Address: 123A 1st St E, North Vancouver, BC V7L 1B2
🍺 Price: $8.00 = 16oz
Bevy: Pumpkin Spicey Festy Weizen (5.2%)
Overall Remarks:
This light-bodied beer is sure to be a fan favourite. Filled with the perfect dose of warming spices that taste legit (aka: not artificial flavouring). This makes for an easy-to-drink festive bevy. It’s dry on the finish - so you can enjoy multiple in one sitting. Bottoms up!
Windfall Cidery
Address: 250 Esplanade E#101, North Vancouver, BC, V7L 1A3
🍺 Price: $10.20 = 8oz
Bevy: Harvest Moon (6.2%)
Overall Remarks:
This cider stays true to its classic form with a zingy twist. It’s refreshing, with a fruit lemon scent. Not a whole lot more to report here because it sticks to the cider rules without getting swayed into seasonal trends.
House of Funk
Address: 350 Esplanade E#101, North Vancouver, BC V7L 1A4
🍺 Price: $7.50 = 12oz
Bevy: Mangelwurzel (5%)
Overall Remarks:
Beet-le Juice, Beet-le juice! This is one heck of a pint of earthy flavours. If you are hunting for a drink that resembles more of a healthy juice than a beer - then this is the pint for you. Pro tip: keep licking your lips so you don’t walk into the night looking like a vampire.
