Biere Sans Alcool Tropical Sour Tall Can
$4.69
Producer Description
"A sour beer, but not too sour. Balanced aromas of tropical fruits and a slightly cereal finish. A light-colored body, covered with a beautiful head of foam. A Tropical Sour, for an exotic refreshment."
Four Winds Nectarous Single
$5.79
Decently tart with huge fruity notes is the name of the game here. A great balance between sweet and tart, with plenty of peach, nectarine and citrus all over. Alberta has waited long enough to get a taste of this superb dry-hopped sour.
Field House Blue Black Dark Sour Can
$5.79
Weighing in at a barely noticeable 10% ABV, this sour from Field House utilizes Blackberries and Blueberries.
Empress 1908 Elderflower Rose Gin
$56.99
The Empress Elderflower Rose Gin contains 9 ingredients including (you guessed it) both rose and elderflower as well as (of course) juniper berries. Lavender, orange peel, orris root, cinnamon bark, and coriander seeds are also in the mix. The Empress Elderflower Rose Gin is described as being slightly floral with notes of citrus and spice. It is given its signature rose/ruby hue thanks to red rose petals and black carrots.
Empress 1908 Indigo Gin
$56.99
Tinted with the iconic butterfly pea blossom, this indigo coloured gin is a delicate starting point for any gin-fueled night. Extremely clean on the nose, elegant to the point of shyness, the Empress offers an easy going nature for any gin drinker. Expect slight floral tones, little whiffs of juniper, a touch of heady perfume.
Hoyne Dark Matter American Brown Ale Btl
$7.99
Dark Matter rides the line between a brown ale and porter. With a decently roasted character, filled with chocolate and nutty notes, but a body that is just a little light for a true porter. Either way, it's comforting as all heck.
Sea Cider Rumrunner
$27.49
Rumrunner Cider pours a rich gold with a slight amber hue and nice carbonation. The aroma is intense, warm, dark and very cidery. Sea Cider's Rumrunner has the same intensity in flavor as it does in its aromas, yet it is balanced. Nice acidic edge with accompanying flavors of raisin, rum, leather, toffee and even hints of clove on the finish. The aroma is of sweet apples and a bit of that whiskey in there as well, which resulted in a caramel or toffee note. Very tannic in its mouthfeel.

Author's Note
"Two years ago we embarked on a journey to tell the incredible story of the most exciting and cutting-edge distilleries that are shaping Canada’s industry. The book is finally out today in what has become a weird, unnatural world no one could have predicted. While the days are getting longer and we are beginning to feel spring in the air, almost all non-essential businesses in Canada have closed. We are cheered though that despite adversity, almost all of Canada's distilleries have actively joined the effort to fight the pandemic.
"In writing this book, we have gotten to know many of these very distilleries, and we hope their stories and spirits found in this book might be a welcome distraction. And while we cannot visit these distilleries at the moment, our wish is that this book can give you a virtual distillery tour from coast-to-coast. We hope our tasting notes will guide you to new spirits that cannot be missed, many of which you can buy online, so you can then mix your bounty in distillery-specific cocktail recipes."
