Wow, what a night! Apex Mountain Resort was thrilled to report that Brewski 2015 was an even bigger success than they could have imagined. Over 300 people enjoyed amazing craft beer, spirits, ciders, appetizers and live entertainment up at Apex on Saturday Feb. 14^th for the second annual Brewski event!

Guests, breweries, cideries, distilleries, volunteers and staff alike came together to experience some truly unique local flavours. “It’s pretty amazing when you go to an event like this and realize just how lucky we are to live where we do. There are so many amazingly talented people in this area with a distinct passion and commitment to their craft, you can truly taste it in every sip,” explained Megan Pigeon, Apex Marketing & Sales Manager. “When everyone gets together in one place and brings their best work, it’s pretty special. Not only for the guests, but for the beverage providers as well. This event gives them the opportunity to get together with like-minded people and just have fun—skiing, boarding and enjoying the fresh mountain air.”

“We expanded Brewski 2015 to include 18 beverage providers. There was a combination of breweries, cideries and distilleries—mostly from the Okanagan—but we were pleased to add some additional breweries from outside our immediate region this year. With the success of this year’s event, we are hoping to expand even more next year,” continued Megan.

Brewski was held inside the Gunbarrel Saloon. The team from the Gunbarrel created amazing appetizers designed to showcase the awesome beverages poured throughout the event.
