Win a Tour of Parallel 49 Brewing Company

Comments 85 by Rebecca Bollwitt

If you’ve been to a local liquor store, pub, restaurant, or even Whitecaps game in Vancouver in recent years, you’ve been fortunate enough to have a selection of great local beer like the Filthy Dirty IPA, Craft Lager and Gypsy Tears Ruby Ale. Parallel 49 Brewing Company is an East Vancouver microbrewery brewing up some of the most unique and high quality craft beers around, and I’m giving away a unique opportunity for one Miss604 reader (and beer lover) to experience how their creativity gets into each bottle.
