Summer Nights Beckon…
Served chilled with an orange slice.
Paired with Canapes.
In the company of friends.
DIVINE.

VIP Event. Join us for the Westcoast launch of ‘Original White’ Rickard’s Newest Craft Beer.

Some more information about the beer:

Considered a “Belgian White”, Rickard’s Original White is a style of beer that is unfiltered-creating its light opaque appearance.

The result of this process is a smoothness and full body like no other.

Here’s an excerpt from the event flyer:

TUESDAY, APRIL 24
Ross McKitrick:
Discussing the Troubled Politics of Global Warming
His work is receiving ongoing international attention in The Economist, the Wall Street Journal, Nature, and the BBC – why has this economist, with an insatiable curiosity and passion for data, become such a media lightning rod? With all sides using science to defend their point of view on climate change, what is missing from this important global debate?

You can find out more about the series on the Fraser Institute website, HERE.
