Best Ontario brewery that contract brews

not sure how answerable it is, but thought i'd post it on here.

with the # of breweries that do contract brews, who would be the best and why?

as in: if you were to get your beer brewed at a brewery, which brewery would you contract to brew your recipe?

Do you mean the best brewery that has someone else brew their beer, or the best brewery that brews for other people out of their facility?

Not to put words into atomeyes's mouth, but I'm confident he's referring to the former.

actually, i mean the latter.

i was trying to think of a way to post my question w/o it confusing people. guess i missed.

I don't have a clue. I can't think of any who brew for more than one other company I like.

I used to drink it on cask all the time at the Shepherds Crook in Georgetown. It was gooooood stuff!

From what I've heard Cool now own Duggan's 9 & 5, so they're not contract beers anymore.

I wonder if that means the end of the stupid small bottles?
