Fort St. John breweries are a force to be reckoned with. Our writer Matt Preprost sat down with Stephen Beard of Beard\u2019s Brewing<\/a> and Zach Mirosevic of Mighty Peace Brewing<\/a> to chat about Northern BC’s craft beer revolution.<\/p>\n

Legend says that, once you drink from the Peace River, you will always return.<\/p>\n

If it was true 10,000 years ago for the Dane-Zaa people, then it is certainly true today for the free-spirited adventurers still drawn to its fertile northern frontier \u2014 and Fort St. John breweries.<\/p>\n

In the northeast of British Columbia and panhandle of the western Canadian prairies, the Peace River cuts through the Rocky Mountain trench. It meanders east through gold-green hills of Fort St. John en route to Alberta and up towards the Arctic. Glacier-fed with little to filter, its waters are used by two emerging B.C. brewmasters to craft distinct flavours that reflect the region\u2019s abundance.<\/p>\n

Meet the Breweries of Fort St. John: Beard’s Brewing and Mighty Peace Brewing<\/h2>\n

Both of these Fort St. Johns breweries are a stone\u2019s throw off the world-famous Alaska Highway. They’ve also sown a quickly evolving craft beer revolution there over the last four years.<\/p>\n

\"Beard's
Stephen and Amy Beard at Beard’s Brewing in Fort St. John (photo: Darcy Shawchek)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

For Stephen Beard, owner of Bear Brewing and a firefighter by trade, his journey to opening the city\u2019s first brewery started with a home brewing kit his wife Amy gifted him for Christmas. Eight months later he was purchasing a third-hand brewhouse from Rossland, B.C., and serving his first pours to the public in 2017.<\/p>\n

Mighty Peace Brewing owner Zach Mirosevic arrived a year later. He was a transplant from Kamloops where he went to school and first worked at Red Collar Brewing<\/a> before moving north to help to establish Mighty Peace in 2018.<\/p>\n

\"Beard's

In their own ways, both took a reserved approach to introducing the concept of craft to the masses where beer from the big international breweries still reigns as king. They started with light ales, pilsners, and IPAs with significantly less hop. Now, they\u2019re regularly releasing seasonal radlers, fruity sours and saisons, and keeping seasonal dark beers on tap year-round.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cOne of the best parts is how many people from the Lower Mainland \u2014 from these large communities that have had craft beer for quite a while \u2014 fall in love with our northeast beer,” says Beard.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“We have a lot of people from Site C who will exclusively drink our beer simply because they love the flavours; they love that we have so many recipes.”<\/p>\n

\"Beard's
Stephen Beard at Beard’s Brewing in Fort St. John (photo: Darcy Shawchek)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

\u201cIn the north we have had to adjust in a way that lots of craft breweries haven\u2019t. We have two pilsners, we now have three lagers, we have all these ales. We’re just trying to figure out what does our region likes to drink. The remarkable part, honestly, is that we have a lot of people who like what I consider one-offs, and want that beer made over and over again.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have so many customers that are demanding that all four of our IPAs constantly get made, that all of our lagers constantly get made, and they\u2019re excited to see what’s to come,\u201d Beard says. \u201cAnd to be honest so am I.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Mighty
Zach Mirosevic & Megan Durno at Mighty Peace Brewing in Fort St. John, BC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Three blocks north at Mighty Peace, Mirosevic couldn\u2019t go off the rails right off the bat, launching the brewery\u2019s signature Peace Gold before becoming brasher with his styles as of late.<\/p>\n

\u201cI had to build a model where you got to draw in the crowd firs so light beers, golden ales, pilsners. Then I started our IPA off being a little less hoppy, more palatable,\u201d Mirosevic says. \u201cBut as things have grown in the last two years, and especially during COVID, people are starting to go outside their comfort zone. That\u2019s been a good sign. When you start seeing that running this brewery, and as someone that enjoys going outside their comfort zone, pushing the envelope out in nature, it gives me a little bit of hope. People are willing to try new things. It can open up new ideas.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Super
Super Neat Saison from Mighty Peace Brewing in Fort St. John, BC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Mighty Peace just released its Super Neat saison, in time for the May long weekend, made with a blend of locally sourced indigenous haskap berries and black currants that Mirosevic says make for a nice dry, tart berry beer.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cWe did a small batch last year, and scaled up. It was such a huge hit,\u201d Mirosevic says.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cSince I\u2019m not from here, I don\u2019t know how to perceive the public sometimes. When I come out with something like that and I see a huge reception that\u2019s really nice to know that I can just scale up those kinds of brews.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Beard's
The patio at Beard’s Brewing in Fort St. John (photo: Darcy Shawchek)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Beard has had to scale up his Black Beard recipe, a malty, creamy milk chocolate oatmeal stout, and keep it brewing in his kettles, flowing from his taps and filling up cans.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen I created the Black Beard recipe I thought it would be a seasonal winter beer, yet with the flavours of chocolate and coffee, and the slightly sweet finish, women in particular, but men as well, didn\u2019t know beer could taste like that,\u201d Beard says. \u201cUntil you allow it to pass their mouth and to reach their tongue, they actually realize, wow, beer is actually more about just getting drunk. It can be a food experience. It can be a new experience. We\u2019re really seeing a massive shift where we have regulars that are here every day, every week, every month that want to try what\u2019s next, what\u2019s new, what do you have coming for flavour.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Mighty
Mighty Peace Brewing in Fort St. John, BC<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Mirosevic has a similar recipe in the Mighty Peace Breakfast Porter, made with locally-roasted Peruvian coffee beans.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s very nice to blend in with a porter because it’s not overbearing and it\u2019s just there for subtlety. But it will also add a little bit of a caffeine kick. I added chocolate to that, too, and it makes for a real nice porter,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Kegs of Mighty Peace’s cherry kolsch and guava and mango ale run out faster than you can fill a growler, and a Dry Hopped Hazy Sour is the last of the brewery’s pilot sour series this spring,<\/p>\n

\"Peace

Both Beard and Mirosevic have their eye on sustainability, using B.C. grown grain and hops paired with whatever local ingredients they can find and forage. Both use Mackay Farms down the highway in Taylor for honey \u2014 raw and unpasteurized straight from the hive, which sweetens the Apricot Buzz and Belgian saison at Mighty Peace, and the signature Bee Sting Lager and new Honey IPL at Beard\u2019s.<\/p>\n

In return, Beard sends his spent grain back to the farm so it can be fed to their pigs, ensuring zero waste. Beard is also working with local farmers and hopes he\u2019ll have a first locally-grown batch of hops to use next summer.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey take three years for the roots to establish before you get a viable crop so they\u2019re about two years in,\u201d Beard says. \u201cSimply because I\u2019m from here, I want locals supporting locals \u2026 It\u2019s really the whole basis of my business.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mirosevic hopes that one day, market demand will be there for local farmers to be able to supply the breweries with locally malted grain.<\/p>\n

\u201cCrafting good raw materials and crafting good beer is not easy. Any one of us can brew beer, grow hops, probably not malt, but grow barley. But to me, it’s only sustainable if there\u2019s real care and nurture into it,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

\"Peace

In 2019, the two helped to co-organize Fort St. John\u2019s first craft beer festival, selling out the city\u2019s historic Lido Theatre and introducing hundreds not only to their brands, but to other breweries from across Northern B.C. For Mirosevic, who was still new to Fort St. John at the time, the festival helped him and his partner settle into the community.<\/p>\n

With Mighty Peace located a block away from Fort St. John\u2019s redeveloped Centennial Park, which includes a brand new bandstand and market plaza, Mirosevic hopes the park may one day soon play host to its sequel.<\/p>\n

\u201cI met all my really good friends here,\u201d he says. \u201cYou meet people in the same space with the same interests.\u201d<\/p>\n

Beard says he\u2019s seen an explosion of interest at local liquor stores ever since, where breweries such as Trench<\/a> and Crossroads<\/a> from Prince George, and Barkerville<\/a> from Quesnel, are now common on the shelves.<\/p>\n

\"Post
Post & Row Taphouse in Dawson Creek (photo: Matt Preprost)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

And soon these two Peace Country breweries will be joined by a third: the Post & Row Taphouse in Dawson Creek recently announced its plans to add a brewery to its facility.<\/h3>\n

Post & Row<\/a> takes its name from two Dawson Creek landmarks: a historic row of grain elevators turned art gallery and railway museum, and the Mile 0 Post marking the start of the Alaska Highway. The taphouse hopes to open its brewery by the end of this year, or in early 2022. They have also collaborated with Mighty Peace on the new Post Voyage ESB, a classic English-style bitter ale with citrus-stone fruit and spice flavourings, and toffee malt profile.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were very excited, very willing to go for it,\u201d says manager Jenifer Helboe. \u201cWe want beer out there. We didn\u2019t want to keep waiting. It is a limited release, so we\u2019re trying to convince them to keep it brewing, and maybe even help us out and let us bring it on to our brewery.\u201d<\/p>\n

Adds Mirosevic, \u201cWe were thinking about roots and the Peace as it once was, and the spirit of trying something new, and innovating and discovering. These guys genuinely want to learn. It was fun for me, for the first time in my career to just share the knowledge,\u201d he says. \u201cWe\u2019ll do it once a year. They\u2019ll come up here, we\u2019ll brew it again. It will be this hangout session and collaboration of the Peace \u2014 seeing the Peace in a cool way, in an entrepreneurial, free-spirited way.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Dawson

Until the brewery opens, the taphouse continues to build its brand in the community, fundraising this month to help a local school build a wheelchair-accessible playground. If public health restrictions allow, Helboe hopes she can hold events this summer to preview plans for the new brewery to the public, and continue enticing customers to come out and try new beers.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have already been busier than we imagined,\u201d she says. \u201cWe already have people coming from Grande Prairie and Fort St. John that come down, so I think with the brewery it will just grow.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Mile

\u201cThe craft beer revolution, even though we were probably five or ten years behind the rest of the province, has finally reached the northeast,\u201d says Stephen Beard. \u201cI\u2019m excited for that.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
