A boat, a beer, a solid BBQ, and good people around me is how I like to spend the summer holidays, and this 4th of July was no exception. But even with all these things on the agenda, we still managed to take a quick detour to…Canada! I admit, our patriotic timing isn’t perfect. (We started and ended the day in the U. S. of A. but took a quick trip across the border to Columbia Brewery in Creston, B.C.)
After some amusing vintage commercials (consider yourself warned: standard definition television is worse then you remember), we took a tour of the facility and learned about the process of brewing liquid gold. Two free beers and some chit-chat about which were our favorite vintage cans later, we headed back across the border for a family-filled evening of food and a perfect sunset.
