#156 Ford Pier

Ford Pier has played in too many bands to mention. He’s a song writer, solo artist as well. Ford is from Edmonton and moved to Vancouver in the early 90’s to pursue a career in music and better weather. Ford has an amazing outlook on the art of music as well as the ethics. He’s always had a pretty good outlook on the importance of art over industry. We had a great time catching up after a few years of occasional “high fives” and “how-ya-beens”. Thanks for doing the show Ford! This Episode is brought to you in part by: Beaus All Natural Brewing co. https://beaus.ca/ Full Time I.P.A. In three words: Hoppy, fruity, bold. It’s our newest full time brand, which is where we got the name! Tasting notes: Full Time I.P.A. pours hazy deep gold with a dense white foam. Aromas of citrus, tropical fruit and pine abound. The flavour mirrors the aroma impressions with pronounced juicy fruit. A balanced bitterness underpins the flavour. This medium bodied ale finishes dry with lingering hop and fruit notes. Lug Tread In three words: Crisp, balanced, refreshing. Lug Tread is a lagered ale (a term we coined!), it’s top-fermented like an ale, and cold-aged like a lager. It’s been our flagship brand since we opened in 2006. As of 2017, it’s now available in 355ml cans for the first time. It’s won more than 20 awards. Tasting notes: Lug-Tread pours a brilliantly clear straw gold, with rocky white foam. A Graham cracker malt character mingles with notes of freshly cut hay and a subtle touch of apple. Sweet, grainy malt is followed by balanced hop bitterness, and the finish is clean and dry. Shop with amazon.ca, amazon.com and amazon.co.uk  Bookmark the link and support the show!!
