Description
The Flying Monkeys Craft Brewery leads the Craft Beer Revolution in Ontario. Brewing radical Beers and creative Ales right on the waterfront in downtown Barrie since 2004, the Flying Monkeys was the first Ontario Craft Brewery to truly recognize the need to overthrow the conservative regime of macro-brews and timid small batch taste-a-likes and create a new Culture of Craft Brewing in our province.

Casting off the comfortable and respectable cloak of the Robert Simpson Brewing Company, and revealing our true selves as the Flying Monkeys late in 2008, we gave rise to the the collective creativity of our Brewery and committed our Brewhouse to the adventurous longings of the growing culture of Craft Beer Lovers in Ontario.

Can from Bierkoning, Amsterdam. Aroma is fruity hops with citrus, grapefruit, tropical notes, some malt and pine, orange, hint of caramel, lightly floral. Flavour is light to moderate sweet with a bitter finish. Body is medium. Not that juicy actually, more of a traditional IPA. Good classic west coast-style IPA.
