Full Time Beers

Widowmaker
Our signature IPA is made in the east coast style. This style of IPA is characterized by a light malt profile with a big pulpy body that is there to complement the intense juicy character coming from the hops.
-
Trailbreaker
This pale ale will likely come across more like a session IPA than most pale ales in the market. We kept the malt profile light so that the hops could shine.
-
Ridgerunner
German pilsner is characteristically dry and hoppy with a nice background bitterness. Ours is a classic example of the style brewed with Pilsner malt and hopped with Saphir and Spalt Select.

Might As Well Go For A Soda
Cherries and cola gummies were just some of the ingredients used to make this flash from the past. It’ll have you screaming for a liter of cola… meow.

Daylight Come And We Want Go Home
What’s the good in being a ghost if you can’t brew people a good beer? This supernatural stout is loaded with scary coconut and terrifying vanilla… Just don’t say its name three times!

Maple Bay IPA
This IPA has been brewed with fresh hops from Maple Bay Hop Farm. We used copious amounts of the lovely unique Cascade and Centennial that their farm is known for producing. This year’s label was created by local Métis artist Jean Paul Langlois. Cheers!

I Don’t Know How Many Of You Are History Buffs
By golly, we wanted to brew a lager but didn’t know what to make. Then someone suggested a Bavarian lager, ya know like they have in Germany. Well, we made one and served it to this German fella and he said you know you’re not much of a brewer, but he’s a good guy ya know.

Precocious And Full Of Wonderment
This sour is packed with so much pink guava and key lime that it will come at you like a spider monkey! If you’re racing life to the fullest, you should be drinking beer with the fullest flavour… Like a wise man once said, “If you ain’t first, you’re last”… Backcountry, let’s ride!

I've Been Preparing For This Moment My Entire Life
Wait a minute… this looks familiar. This reminds me of something! The last time we collabed with these legends it was 2019! Fast forward to 2022 and we’re all still standing. To celebrate our 5-year anniversary, we got the gang back together like the perfect combination of Mountain Dew and mozzarella. We drank beer, a few did some work, and together we brewed an IPA of sorts. Drink up and know the torch of friendship and collaboration will burn forever!

It Was The Style At The Time
We can’t brew lagers like we used to. But we have our ways. One trick is to tell stories that don’t go anywhere. Like back in the day when they decided to call Squamish Newport, then changed it back because there was another town called Newport. It cost a nickel for a beer back then, and in those days nickels had lanterns on ‘em. Gimme 5 beers for a quarter you’d say. Back then we used to wear shirt collars so tall that you could barely see over ‘em, it was the style at the time. Now where were we…?

Make It A Hurricane Before I Go Insane
For the first of our 5-year collaboration series, we had our friends from Fieldhouse come up to brew this Hurricane cocktail inspired sour. Brewed with tangerine, passionfruit and a splash of cherry, this beer will have you saying “It’s 5 o’clock somewhere”.

Suck It Cancer
Now a Backcountry tradition, this annual special release features a can designed in collaboration with the estate of Chili Thom, a local artist who succumbed to cancer in 2016. Since November 2019, proceeds from the ‘Suck It Cancer’ Pale Ale campaign have raised over $37,000 for the BC Cancer Foundation, funding important cancer research in our province.

Deacon N' Son
To the two exceptional humans who introduced me to cask beer and my first English pub. Every evening before supper down single-lane country roads in the wrong direction to get the right beer at the right pub, The Crown in Little Missenden. Cheers, John and Ant!

…And Stop Calling Me Shirley
Air Traffic Control to Backcountry! You’re coming in too hot! Surely you aren’t going to try to land that beer!
Backcountry to Air Traffic Control. We definitely are going to land this beer … and stop calling me Shirley! -
Sick Day
When you’ve come down with a bad case of “I don’t want to work” and the weather outside is just too nice to ignore, this is the only medicine you need. A clean, refreshing Helles lager. Perfect for your “recovery”.
