Howl Brewing new kid on the block

from QOL Hosted by Hugh Kruzel

There were the legacy breweries - the big boys of the business - then came the micros, and here we are talking with Dan van Netten about his nano-brewery on Vancouver Island. He really isn't new to the industry nor to brewing; I am told he began his journey in high school with first batches of beer and wine. Howl is located on Lyle Street in Esquimalt in a historic building that once was a green grocer/convenience store from 1909. It was known as a neighbourhood candy store for years. Come along for a conversation that explores how Dan got into beer, what he produces now, and his aspirations for a tasting room.
