Bottle Releases: Seven flavors to make your winter a little cozier
In a year where so many things have been limited, we decided to open up your beer drinking options.
For this holiday season, we are releasing not one, not two, but SEVEN new bottles of Boundary Bay brews!
Some of these bottles may look familiar, as they have been offered in either cans or on-tap before. But with any beer release, we like to keep things exciting - which is why we brought some serious oldies and a couple new brews to this bottle release lineup!
Read on about each bottle release below.

OLD BOUNDER
Stats: 22.3°P OG | 100+ IBU | 9.7% ABV
A fisherman of yore, Old Bounder, sought strong ales with a vestige of the past. Upon discovering American barleywine, a goblet was required straightaway. Old Bounder barleywine is a rich, full-bodied beer with smooth caramel sweetness and bold hop character. The warming-alcohol content is exceptional for an after-dinner beverage or dessert pairing. Old Bounder is crafted for those who voyage for the finer things.

THE NAUTILUS
Stats: 9.7% ABV
The Nautilus started as a part of the Bootlegger Barrel Series, but quickly evolved into something truly unique. We aged our Highland Reserve in Chuckanut Bay Distillery barrels with Brettanomyces.
