Ace Brewing Company keeps collecting the medals.
The Courtenay-based brewery recently won a bronze medal for their Cold IPA in the Specialty IPA category at the Canadian Brewery Awards & Conference (CBAC) in early June.
The CBAC brings together hundreds of brewers and craft beer professionals from breweries across Canada, as well as industry suppliers to share ideas, learn from industry experts and discover the latest innovations in the brewing industry.
The conference - which took place in Halifax - included a gala where the best beers and breweries are recognized; a Canadian Brewing Awards medal is a symbol of Canadian brewing excellence.
