Prince Rupert's Wheelhouse Brewing Company featured in Vancouver Province Beer Blog's guide to 2014

The Vancouver Province's Beer Blog The Brewed Awakening, has laid out a listing of some of the craft beer establishments that have caught their eye for 2014 and lift their glass towards a Prince Rupert establishment.

As part of a review of the explosion in craft beer production in BC from last year and looking ahead to 2014, author Jan Zeschky outlines that thirteen new establishments are set to join the nine of last year in a grabbing their share of the competitive marketplace.

By Zeschky's count that brings the number of craft breweries in BC to Seventy six operations, a collection with as many different themes as they have product lines.

The list takes us over a wide range of BC's geography, from the Okanagan to Vancouver Island  and up into NorthWestern British Columbia.

Locations where the breweries are setting up shop in both small towns and larger cities.

The Wheelhouse Brewing Company which opened in December,  joins the listing with an emphasis on the success of their Gillnetter Golden Ale, Flagship Pale Ale and Blacksmith Brown Ale brands.

The snapshot review also points out the Tasting room at the Wheelhouse and their line up of keg, bottle and growler options. They provide the latest information on their 1st Avenue location through their facebook page and twitter feed.
