It's the fourth time in six years that a B.C. beer has won the honour, marking the climax of a successful night that saw the province's brewers taking home gold medals in nine out of 38 categories.
Sasquatch Stout, which also took topped the stout category, is described as "black and robust with a lot of body, just like the animal itself" on Old Yale's website.
