A series of local beers supporting critical causes across the province round out the summer season.

The 2022 benefit brew by Phillips Brewing and Malting Co. in Victoria is described as a smooth, refreshingly easy-drinking Hazy ISA, soft in mouthfeel with a quick finish. Ripe flavours of fresh mango and bright mandarin orange meld seamlessly with notes of lime, lemon zest and tropical fruit from Eclipse and Motueka hops.

The Phillips Brewing Benefit Brew is an annual project where a charity in B.C. and one in Alberta receive all proceeds from sales in each province. It is expected to launch Sept. 12.

Best paired with good friends, sunshine, and SPF 50, the B.C. Benefit Brew helps bring salmon back stream by stream with The Pacific Salmon Foundation. There are more than 400 distinct populations of wild salmon in the province and the foundation created the Pacific Salmon Explorer online tool to provide a better understanding of the state of salmon populations.

The mango-licious Alberta Benefit Brew proceeds go to the Leftovers FoundationB次元官网网址檚 mission to reduce food waste and increase food access. Visit to learn more about the organization.
