Dageraad keeps their Year Of Reign going with today’s release of “10°” Dark Quadruple
Burnaby’s Dageraad Brewing was named Brewery of the Year at the 2018 Canadian Brewing Awards, followed up with a near sweep of Strong Belgian Ale category at the BC Beer Awards last October. Their year of reign continues as they finally and successfully launch their “10°” Dark Quadruple today for Valentine’s Day. There’s love, and yeast, in the air.
