Black Betty by Vancouver Island Brewing in British Columbia, Canada

About Black Betty by Vancouver Island Brewing

Black Betty is brilliant and bright in the glass, with a delightful aroma of blackberries. The flavour is slightly tart, with a noticeable splash of blackberry. Northern Brewer hops provide some spice and hints of zesty pine flavour to balance the tartness. The finish is dry and crisp for this highly quaffable summer beer.


Vancouver Island Brewing was the Island’s first craft brewery. From humble beginnings in a small warehouse in Central Saanich in 1984 we began by handcrafting a small selection of draught only products for pub customers on Vancouver Island.
