Top-beer award lands in Surrey
By Michael Kane, Vancouver Sun Published: Monday, January 28, 2008
VANCOUVER - The best beer is in Surrey, the best brewpub is in Vancouver and the best brewery is in Victoria, according to members of the Vancouver chapter of the Campaign for Real Ale.
CAMRA British Columbia is an independent, voluntary consumer association dedicated to supporting traditional brewing.
Central City Imperial IPA from Surrey's Central City Brewing Co. was named the best beer in the 2008 CAMRA Vancouver awards announced Monday.

IPA is India Pale Ale, a traditionally hoppy beer with a high alcohol content, originally brewed to withstand the two-month sea voyage to British troops serving in India.
The Imperial version produced by brewmaster Gary Lohin is also known as a double IPA with an alcohol content usually above 8.0 per cent. Lohin's brew comes in at 8.5 per cent.
"All the ingredients are essentially doubled," Lohin said in an interview. "All the flavours are just more intense."
Central City, located across from the Central City SkyTrain station, was also runner-up in the best local brewpub category.
Gastown's Steamworks Brewing Co. was named the best local brewpub and also won best seasonal beer for its Grand Espresso Stout which is currently on tap.
"The credit goes to our brewmaster Conrad Gmoser who has been a force of consistency and creativity," said Steamworks owner Eli Gershkovitch.
Phillips Brewing Co. in Victoria was named the best B.C. brewery. The Whip Gallery Restaurant at Main and 6th in East Vancouver was named best local beer cafe, pub or restaurant, and was also cited for the best local beer event for The Whip Real Ale Sundays.
