Vancouver Island Brewing Celebrates Gold and Silver Medals

From Vancouver Island Brewing, by Carine Redmond & Associates

Vancouver Island Brewing is excited to announce that they have received three gold and two silver medals from the Tastings World Beer Championships. With a gold medal and Cellar Selection, the Hermannator Ice Block took the lead with 95 points. With 94 points, the Dominion Dark Lager and Victoria Dortmunder Lager also received gold medals. Silver medals were awarded to VIB’s Juan de Fuca Cerveza, which received 89 points, along with the Islander Lager which received 88 points. 

The World Beer Championships are a monthly consumer-focused competition and America’s oldest international beer competition, open to all commercially produced beers from around the world. The competition is medal-based, and awards its medals based on the proprietary blind tasting methodology developed by the Beverage Testing Institute (BTI).

To celebrate their wins and to welcome fall, VIB will be throwing parties in Nanaimo, Langford, Vancouver and Victoria next month. The general public is welcome to attend (free of charge), and try some of VIB’s new fall and winter beers, including the new Misthorn Winter IPA and Tidal Series: Harvest Saison.
