(TSX: BR) ("Big Rock" or the "Corporation") is pleased to announce that it plans to establish a new brewery located in British Columbia ("B.C.").

Mr. Peters is a consultant in the retail and consumer products industries who has previously held executive positions at TLC Laser Eye Centres and The Oshawa Group Ltd.
