“Just want to say how much respect I have for Wild Ambition Brewing. Theresa & Mitchell pour themselves into their business - their sweat, time, money and passion.

They are artisans with their product and family to their people.

Few - if any - will ever see the extents to which they go to make their business thrive or how far above and beyond they go for their staff.

As a small business owner, I'm going to say what a lot of us are not able to say - for those that can't see past the chips, I challenge you to start your own business - and survive - in an world where it is so easy to throw stones without recourse and zero accountability. Sometimes things happens. You deal with it and you move on - it's far from easy and Theresa and Michell are doing it - and doing it with everything they have.

Unless you want to live in a Budweiser world, get out there and support them!“

“I was able to snag the last sixer of this at a nearby Vancouver liquor store. They were plumb out otherwise! That says a lot about this beer. It isn’t the big bear we used to drink in the 90s (that was awful compared to this) but the price point is just as good. It certainly isn’t comparable to a warm coors light either. Although I appreciate the fact that the rapidly growing popularity of this craft lager is attracting negative Google reviews already (from Malcolm). My hats off to the brewmaster for that!!

In terms of taste, their lager is absolutely and undoubtedly a craft lager. The only comparable I’ve had is at Tofino Brewery, their lager which is on par with this is equally delicious but very hard to get unless on the island. I love my IPAs and pilsners but there’s something about the taste of an ice cold craft lager in Canada that’s unbeatable, worldwide. Thank you for this Big Bear, it’s why I’ve taken the time to write a nice review. Quick question…do you source the water for this delightful adult beverage from Bear Creek?

Oh and Malcolm, you can trust I’m a real reviewer, just look at the photo of my beer I’m enjoying now.“

“Great! Love their mermaid cocktail - that's my favorite! ❤️“
