Way back in August, I won a craft beer weekend at Swan's
Brewpub in Victoria as part of Miss 604's Backyard BC contest series. It had been a
few moons since my last beer adventure, so by the time I got around
to planning this one, I was raring to go.
I’m going to be honest - Victoria’s never been at the top of
my travel list. I’m a bit too old for Jagr bombs with UVIC students, I’m not
really a tea-at-the-Empress-with-grandma type and whale watching is way out of
my budget. But after this trip, I can officially declare that it’s won me over.
As it turns out, Victoria is more than students, seniors and stalking sea
mammals – it’s charming, friendly, sunny and chock-full of craft beer. And I
didn’t even have to do a single Jagr bomb.
