Revelstoke “Revy” Beer Festival

by Ryan Myson Midpoint on the Mountain! A thirst for adventure has made Revelstoke, British Columbia a bucket list destination for skiers, mountaineers, hikers, and explorers alike. However again this April a different thirst was pulling people to this scenic city as craft beer and spirits enthusiasts made their way to the amazing Revelstoke Mountain Resort for the second Revelstoke Beer Festival hosted by Alberta Beer Festival Inc. at the midpoint of one of the greatest ski hills in North America . The only thing better than an incredible beer festival is an incredible beer festival held at the midpoint of one of the greatest ski hills in North America at the mid-mountain lodge of Revelstoke Mountain Resort,

where you have the option of either riding the Revelation Gondola up to the festival or, if you are a craft beer and spirits enthusiasts that like to hit the hills, you could ski or snowboard right up to the door. Revelstoke was once one of the largest and most prominent communities in the interior of the province, mostly due to its importance as a railway center. Steamboat traffic from the south connected with the Canadian Pacific Railway making this an important transportation center.
