Pacific Western Brewery History Established in 1957 in Prince George, BC on a fresh water spring, the Pacific Western Brewing Company is British Columbia’s longest-established, independent BC-owned brewery.

The Brewery’s Organic beers are an innovation example; our Organic Lager first brewed in 1997 is Canada’s first organic beer. While the Organic Amber Ale, introduced in 2005, was awarded a Gold Medal in the Brewing Industry International Awards- the Oscars of the Brewing Industry.

Natureland Amber AleThis Gold Medal winning NatureLand Amber Ale is a unique beer that is certified organic by the OCIA – Organic Crop Improvement Association. Brewed with 100% organic two row malt, 100% organic Hallertau Hops and pure spring water from the pristine Caribou Spring. All ingredients are certified organic including the water which is sourced through a certified organic process.

Natureland HefeWeizenNatureland Organic HefeWeizen is an authentic Southern German style – top fermenting beer, brewed with wheat and barley malt. To ensure its true authenticity, our brewers use a real top fermenting yeast from Munch/Bavaria.

The top fermenting yeast cells collect on and near the surface of the beer during the fermentation process where they develop a “white layer” thus the HefeWeizen is commonly called Weiss (white) Bier in Germany. In contrast, a bottom fermented yeast (which would be used to brew and ferment a lager beer) settles to the bottom of the tank during the fermentation process. HefeWeizen’s bottle fermentation is a specific top-fermenting process for maturing the beer and for enriching it with carbon dioxide. Using this process, the wheat beer does not mature in the tank, but in the bottle or keg.
