The Bar Towel

Hey guys, long time reader; just recently joined.

I'm heading over to Scotland in a few weeks to the (very small)town where i grew up(until i was 10). I've just discovered that a nano-brewery has opened there, and got in contact with them saying i was looking forward to trying all of their stuff. I was thinking it would be a cool idea to bring over a bunch of local/ontario beer and spread the love. I've got a few things in mind to take, just looking for everyone's inspired suggestions!??

The brewery is called Tempest brewing, and they only sell in their own pub(The Cobbles) and a few kegs make it to Edinburgh and Glasgow, but that's about it. They seem to have some interesting things, a chipotle porter for instance.
Anyways, i've got a few bottles of Amsterdam Tempest in the basement, so figured that would be an obvious choice, due to the name. I was also thinking of Mill St. cobblestone, for the same reason, even though the beer is nothing special. Camerons RPA since I think it's maybe the best readily available ontario beer out there. The only other obvious choices were something from each of Wellington and F&M since I live in Guelph now.

Any suggestions welcome guys, thanks.

Get them something from Bellwoods or a Tank Ten beer from Great Lakes if you really want to showcase the best of what Ontario has to offer.

Also, I agree that your Tempest choice is a natural fit. Doesn't hurt that it is also a great beer!

I had Tempest ales at Blackfriars and Bon Accord in Glasgow this past summer. Didn't realize how lucky I was to have done so.

Any of the Welly one-offs would be good. You don't have to bring anything hard to get, though. Nickel Brook NN/Headstock would be good or Crazy Canuck (as much for the can as for the beer).

I second GLB Tank Ten and Bellwoods. The imagination and quality of their lineups are second to none in Ontario.

Thanks guys.
I agree the Bellwoods, however the only two i have lying around are the Motley Cru and No sleep till Brooklyn. Don't really want to part with those, and i doubt I'll make it down to the brewery before i leave. The tank-ten series is a great idea, make sure to grab one of the Harry Porters if it makes it to Guelph. I like the crazy canuck idea as well. The last few Welly-one ofs have been 750ml bottles, hopefully the next one is back to can format, as i dont want to take too many bottles.

So this is what I have so far:
Camerons RPA, Tempest,Harry Porter(although, reading the reviews, i'm not so sure about this one)Crazy Canuck,I'm going to grab a Wellington India Brown Ale when it comes out next friday. And thinking something from Unibroue, i know it's not local but they're really good.

Any other inspired ideas?

I think some muskoka detour would be neat to bring, a session ipa brought back to the land of session ales.
