A crisp, clean, quaffable beer at a great price!
Big Bad John’s has been serving beer since 1962 – so we know a good beer when we taste one. This crisp, fresh lager goes perfectly with bluegrass , peanuts and moonshine. We reckon it’s better than just xxx – it’s XXXXX.
(Brewed at Vancouver Island Brewing , only available at the Strath)
(Originally brewed by Hugo's Brewhouse until they closed 2008)
