In celebration of Canada's 150th birthday, Trading Post collaborated with the Fort Langley National Historic Site to bring you a pale ale that is as easy drinking as Canadians are nice. A crackery malt flavour and the aroma of BC Hop Company's local Lumberjack hops create this crisp balanced, no nonsense beer. Cheers Canada!

Fort Langley is a former trading post of Hudson's Bay Company and the birthplace of BC. In 1827, James McMillan, along with twenty-four other men, began construction of the original Fort Langley 4-kilometers west of the current site.

On a canoe trip down the Fraser, HBC chief factor Gavin Hamilton decided to go to shore to shoot some ducks. Armed with a double barreled fowling piece, he came face to face with three bears.
