I am Peter Van de Reep, a Vancouver-based barista and student. I work at Wicked Café and study geology at the University of British Columbia. I have passion for many things: coffee, music, beer, food, the outdoors and rocks.


On tap

Intelligentsia Guatemala El Cuervo.
This is a great, solid Central American, one that's making me rethink my past preference Ethiopia. Smooth, silky body is great for sipping in Hydrogeology (or your class of choice). Milk chocolate and molasses.

Rogue XS 2007 Imperial Stout
This is a real beer. Maybe a super beer, as in a superhero. Huge dark, roasty malts make themselves apparent. It has an alcohol content greater than a lot of Rieslings (11% abv) but you can't tell until you stand up. Grab one of the trademark silkscreened 26 oz ceramic bottles at your local specialty beer merchant. Search hard, because in Canada, you need to know where to look. (Hint: in Vancouver try Brewery Creek on Main; in Calgary you might find it at Willow Park or Kensington Wine Market.)
