Collaborating with community partners like local farmers and growers, the brewery uses [salmon-safe hops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kernza-lager) that help ensure safe fish habitats and only relies on fining agents that are 100% vegan-certified. Focusing on premium and animal-safe ingredients, Dogwood Brewing locally sources all of its materials from Armstrong, British Columbia and offers in-house favorites that range from summer ales to [artisan IPAs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/galaxy-ripple-imperial-ipa). Some bestsellers include a French Ginger farmhouse-style ale, a coconut chai ale that will appeal to adventurous drinkers and Dogwood Brewing's signature Fest beer which draws inspiration from traditional German festival blends while following a 300-year-old recipe.
