Sometime ago in 1983 a woman gave birth to me in a hospital in Vancouver, BC. My parents separated shortly afterwords and my mother found refuge with another man, we moved to Maple Ridge, BC.. I went to school, shit happened, I moved to Port Coquitlam for awhile, home of the famous pig farm, finished high school but barely.. guess I smoked to many cigarettes and was more interested in rock'n roll and rebelling than class time, or at least that's what the councilors told me.
Graduated, moved to Vancouver and onto Kitsilano.
From there I moved back to Coquitlam, quit my job in Mission, BC at the time, bought a place in Port Moody which is also known as "City of Arts" and found sanctuary in something that still moves a complete stranger into giving me a bear hug when he finds out my occupation.
I own Two Thirsty Cats Brewing Company. Right now it's operating as Fraser Valley Brewing.
It's a U-brew and a U-Vin... But I will explain more of that later, right now it's about me. That's more important. At least in this blog.
Did I mention what my super power is? No?
I have this uncanny ability to take home young waitress's and sleep with them. I can only assume that this power comes from the long line of the Hawkins family gene pool. There really is no other explanation for this weird and reoccurring phenomena. We'll talk about more of that later. I'm just getting you all worked up.
So I am Corey Allan Hawkins. Possibly in love with my name a little too much but bless my aunt the woman who gave me my name. For with out her wisdom my ego may not be as big as it is. And that my friends would be a crime that humanity should have never gone without.
Right.. So I make beer for a living. I love the smell of hops and the way it tastes. The warm feeling that a kettle full of Wort gives you in the afternoon. The sweet smell of yeast when mixed with wort and the aroma all around.... I couldn't ask for a better job. The look on a customers face when he or she takes that first sip followed by a second...
They put there glass down and relish in that fact that their beer has absolutely NO PRESERVATIVES!
