Files are arranged chronologically.

Photographs, labels and graphics

Series consists of graphic materials relating to BC brewing history: photographic prints, digital scans, beer labels (originals and copies), and other printed images. The series also includes Evans' correspondence relating to photo research and permissions clearance for his various projects, including the book project; textual records include correspondence, search results, low-resolution print-outs of images, order forms, invoices, schedules of fees, and conditions of use forms.

Photographs appear throughout most series in the fonds; this series brings together images that were stored loose or in separate binders or folders without any obvious connection to other materials; and it includes Evans' own low-resolution scans of analog originals.

Public talks and publications

Series consists of records relating to Evans' public speaking engagements and his writings on the history of beer and brewing. Evans' public presentations on beer go back to 1987; while still working on his thesis, Evans gave a series of talks on the history of brewing on Vancouver Island (The Devil Hop tour), organized by the Royal BC Museum and presented to six different Island communities. By the 2000s, Evans had developed a repetoire of presentations he could adapt to various contexts.

Activities documented include a workshop ("Ale and Hearty") on the history of beer that Evans developed for the University of Victoria continuing education; guest lectures for UVic History classes; Evans' Beer School classes, part of the annual Victoria Beer Week; contributions to Victoria's 150th Anniversary symposium (2012); participation in the Heritage Vancouver Talks Dirty! series (2000); talks at beer and food pairing events; and keynote addresses delivered to meetings of professional associations and home brew clubs.

Evans' published writings found in the series include copies of "Pass the Jack O'Hearts: A History of Brewing in Victoria" (Museums Roundup, no. 232, Fall 2005); and "The Beer Brewers," a chapter in Nancy Oke and Robert Griffin (eds), Feeding the Family: 100 Years of Food and Drink in Victoria (Victoria: Royal British Columbia Museum, 2011).

Records include correspondence; speaking notes, drafts, lecture outlines, presentation slides, and photographs; event brochures and programs, press releases, course posters and course outlines; copies of newspaper and periodical articles; and reading lists and glossaries.

Files are arranged chronologically.

Hops industry research and exhibit files

Series consists of files relating to the hops industry in British Columbia. Sub-series 1 brings together Evans' general research files on hops growing. Much of this material was accumulated as Evans worked on "Brewer's Gold", a travelling exhibit on the history of hops in BC. Sub-series 2 consists of the exhibit project files. For record types, see sub-series descriptions.

Brewing history research files

Series consists of Evans' research materials relating to BC brewing history. A large number of the files date back to Evans' work on his thesis (1985-1991), but he continuously added new material to old files and created new files in the course of his ongoing research.

Records includes Evans' notes and working papers, correspondence, speaking notes for public talks; interview notes and biographical sketches of brewers and brewery profiles; copies of advertisements, beer labels, photographs, maps, fire insurance plans, drawings, and floor plans; copies and transcriptions of newspaper and periodical articles, excerpts from publications (books, websites); and copies of archival documents, the originals of which are held by other repositories.

Two types of dates have been given to most files in the series: "dates of creation" and "dates of document". "Creation" dates are based on date of accumulation by Evans. Many of the working papers and notes by Evans are undated, while documents that are dated are often reproductions of older, historical records that he had copied by the repositories he visited. This makes it difficult to determine the precise dates on which files were opened or closed. Files dated [198-]-[199-] are thought to belong to the thesis period; files dated [198-]-[201-] originated in the thesis research but continued to be added to; other ranges are given where more precise dates of accumulation seem possible based on file contents (e.g. Evans' own correspondence). The "dates of document" given at the sub-series and file levels refers to the dates of the original documents that Evans copied.

The series is arranged into ten sub-series:
