The Bar Towel

If you're going to declare it, why not just check a box of beer?

Stopped in today at lunch for their grand opening. They've spent a good amount of money on transforming the industrial building into their bottle shop and tasting bar area which has a large glass wall for viewing of the brewery. It's nice but sorta dark. Don't think there's a kitchen. They have a ne...

I'm not a huge fan of this one. Blacklist is far better.

Flying Monkeys Live Transmission - mild orange creamsicle
Enlightenment Boom by Renaissance - nice a bitter piney floral but a bit of soapy resinous

I had... Err... A whole 2-4 of improperly packaged cans...they like wouldn't stay full..

I didn't eat just stoppef for a brief tour and the bottle shop, but from what I've heard and reviews the food is decent, but the service might be a spotty.

Too many novelty beers coming from this once solid brewery. Just finished reviewing this one; my opinions were pretty much in line wi...

The stout is bordering on black lager, thing Napanee Blacklist with coffee.

The pale ale is meh, the sour/gose is much better.

Drinking one now, orange and lemon zest with bitter finish. It's drinking nicely, but wouldn't go out and buy too many. Also they are packaged in 4 packs, so you may get lucky and get 4 for 1 with a clueless lcbo cashier....

Shouldn't this be in events? Something something my OCD...

Collective Arts IPA No 5, which I didn't realize until I got home is actually a DIPA. Anyway, beautiful, hazy golden yellow, a great looking beer. Wonderful nose and the unmistakable presence of citra, which I believe is my favorite hop. I am really growing to love this brewery. My only complaint, ...
