Older Viscosity American Dark Strong Ale
Port Brewing Co. San Marco, CA
9/10. Really, really good, chocolates and barleys. Very silky. A good treat beer as it is also expensive.

Cheakamus Chai-Maple Ale
Whistler Brewing Company. Whistler, BC.
4/10. Not Christopher's favorite. Way too many sweet flavours mixed together. Shonna liked it a little more- but just a tiny bit more.

Sun Chaser Cream Ale
-Bowen Island Brewery. Bowen Island, BC
-9/10. Really wish they had kept their old packaging. It was formally an Irish Cream Ale but it is a great delicious summer alternative to winter ale - so perhaps they are right on the money with the new name.
