We'll still "Eat The HST" and Summer Sippers

2010-07-30T21:58:00.000-07:00

The "We'll Eat The H.S.T." promotion will continue until the end of Summer.

The overwhelming guest reaction to having the tax spent on your bill become a discount on your next visit has been so successful that we are continuing the program. Our regulars have embraced the program and saved money, locals now know we are looking out for them and even tourists are making Fogg n' Suds their home away from home. We are amazed by the return visits and thank you all for your ongoing patronage.

NEW ON TAP!! July 31 to August ? Don't wait too long!

Fogg n' Suds is constantly on the lookout for new and unique draught beers to compliment our list of over 120 domestic and import bottle brands and we are currently pouring some great Summer Sippers.

Howe Sound King Heffy - This local Heffeweizen is a true Summer thirst quencher that is light to the palate with a distinct banana and clove aroma and taste. We of course serve it chilled with a slice of lemon.

Alexander Keith's White - A Nova Scotian White (Whit) beer, once again featuring clove and citrus aromas, this is a great addition to any bright sunny patio visit.

Tree Brewing Cutthroat Pale Ale - From Kelowna this small brewery keeps cranking out fine beers one after another. We've tried 5 beers on tap from this brewery and each beer has been very well recieved. This pale ale is full bodied with a clean finish. A great balanced ale.

Fruli Strawberry Heffeweizen - Shipped from Belgium this truly Fruli Lambic ale is created as a heffeweizen before being filtered through fresh strawberry puree. Absolutely devine.

Stanley Park Amber Ale - This sustainable and environmentally green brewery generates its power for the brewery with an enormous windmill, uses 30% less water in its brewing process and has a state of the art multi-million dollar new brewery perfecting what beer is all about. The amber ale is served in a beautiful sleeve and tastes as good as it looks.

Moosehead Lager - Another Nova Scotia beer, this light lager is quaffable if you're thirsty featuring subtle sweetness with a clean finish. Bring me a Moose Juice!

You can't go wrong with some of these fine beers and they will be on tap for the next week or longer but if they aren't we've found something just as exciting and fresh to tempt your tastebuds.

Remember to visit Fogg n' Suds to combat the H.S.T. and we look forward to having you as our guest soon.

CALGARY (CBC) - Renowned B.C. amateur hockey coach Ernie (Punch) McLean is recovering well following a good night's sleep, after cheating death again, this time in the backcountry of B.C.

"Well, today I'm pretty good," the legendary tough guy said Friday morning after finishing a breakfast of bacon and eggs at the home of Jim Reed, the helicopter pilot who spotted McLean walking out of the bush Thursday afternoon.

McLean, 77, told CBC Radio that after spending five nights and four days lost in the mountains in northern B.C. without food or supplies, he was not sure he could survive another night in the rain.
