The GOODS from Red Truck Beer Company

Vancouver, BC | If you’ve met Sam Payne, you’ve probably met “Ruby da dog”, the Red Truck Beer mascot. Ruby is a rescue dog that has come a long way in her 4 years with us. “Ruby da beer” is brewer Dave Varga’s tribute to Ruby on her 4th birthday. This beer, like Ruby, is strong, unique and a ton of fun. Red Truck Limited “Ruby” (6.9% alcohol by volume) is an English Strong Ale with French oak. It has some caramel malt sweetness, and the hops are there strictly for balance. It has a distinctive oak character you typically find in wine, whiskey, bourbon, or scotch. It has a deep amber color with a vanilla bourbon aroma. It pairs well with Pate and Terrines, Grilled Shellfish, BBQ sauces, pork and duck as well as many desserts like bread pudding and apple pie. It is currently available at The Alibi Room, Habit, St Augustines, Central Bistro, Calabash Bistro, and Romers Burger Bar in Kitsilano. Details about the brewery after the jump…

Red Truck Beer is built on the values of a simpler time when bars only served beer and whiskey, when trucks were working vehicles and not status symbols, and when business deals were sealed with a handshake and a toast rather than lawyers and email.

The Red Truck Brewing Co has been one of the fastest growing breweries in BC over it’s 5 years in business. Born out of the Brewpub world but operated and raised independently by Director Sam Payne and Dave “Da Brewa” Varga, Red Truck is a North Vancouver operation with a 5 person staff that is focused of making and delivering the freshest beer available.

About the only thing we like more than making beer and enjoying it ourselves is sharing it with those who appreciate the difference that comes with being delivered fresh. Shift over to Red Truck and you’ll see what we mean.
