I Am A Canadian Craft Brewer - Video by VCBW

A couple of days ago the organizers of Vancouver's Craft Beer Week (VCBW) posted a teaser on Twitter that a 'I Am A Canadian Craft Brewer' video would be going live in due time, a video to help promote the VCBW that is taking place from May 10-16th.  Well, they've released the video and it's terrific!  Good job lads.

There seems to be a wave right now spreading throughout Canada, a wave of passion in the industry.  It was evident in Chicago, with the many brewers and brewery representatives wearing their bright red t-shirts with the Maple Leaf on the back and the 'Proud To Be A Canadian Craft Brewer,' and I think it's about time.  Canadian craft brewers nation-wide have a lot to be proud of and a little flair and showmanship like we see from American breweries is something that has sadly been lacking here in our country.  Let's keep this momentum going!
