Railway City Brewing Company
Microbrewery
in St. Thomas,
Ontario,
Canada 🇨🇦
Associated Venue: Railway City Brewing Company
Established in 2008
Over the next 5 years, the craft brewing industry really started to take off and so did the production at the small brewery. The need for additional tanks and production equipment meant a new location was needed. In 2013 the brewery changed locations to its current location 130 Edward Street.
Our production facility features a 3 vessel 20HL brewhouse along with 8-40HL and 8-20HL fermentors, canning line, tap room and full retail store.

473ml can. Nice golden pour, big rocky head. Nice pils malt aroma with great grains and some lovely grassy hops. Clean, crisp finish with a soft, medium bitter hoppy finish. Surprisingly good!

750ml bottle from the lcbo. Dark amber pour, small beige head. Faint hop aroma, light sweet malts. Pretty boring and basic. The honey imparts a light sweetness, but i think its just adding some color and not much else. The finish is lightly bitter, with some more light cereal malts.

On tap at the burger bar.
Dark brown, offwhite head. Big aroma of caramels, breads, and roasted nutty malts. Low bitterness, and a satisfying nutty caramel finish.

On tap at c’est what?
Murky beige pour, small off white head. Aroma of wet grass, chalk, and some light skunky hops. There is next to no malt here. Mouthfeel is watery, and thin with some low carbonation. Finish is bitter, grassy bitter, more chalk, some wet paper. Good god, this was a mess, and resembled nothing of a marzen.

Bottle at the only cafe.
Clear golden pour, small white head.
Aroma of cereals, and some very light coconut. The flavor is quite weak, just tastes of a regular golden ale, witha touch of coconut in the finsh that just brushes your palate. Pretty weak.

Bomber from the lcbo.
Dark mahogany pour, small beige head. Caramel, biscuity malts, with light floral fruit, and touches of buttery diacetly. Flavor has some solid grains, and malts, a light bitterness that sneaks up on you in the end. There are resemblants of a decent bock, and some doppelbock notes, but they are depp in there. Finish is creamy, buttery, with more caramel, and biscuity malts.

Amber pour, with a fluffy white head. Aroma of citrucy hops and some sweet malts. Flavor is also quite hoppy but a tad wattery. The hops are there but the further you get intothe beer the thiner they get. The carbonation is a little low, but there is a very pleasant bitter finish.

Aroma is pungent hops, grass and sweet corn and cooked vegetables. Flavor is sharp and tastes alot like stale hood and paper. The sweet corn comes back in the finish. This is not a great beer, it’s drinkable but I don’t see myself having it again.

Clean, light golden-yellow colour with a frothy white cap, decent stay and a few bubbly lacing spots. Herbal aromas over the straw malts, with a medicinal touch. The taste is mild with the watery malts, but the hops are helping. Getting a tad sour-infection, but not enough to ruin things. Getting a little hazed near the last pour. Cereal grain lingers on the tongue. Refreshing, easy-going, just above average lager.

Clean darker amber colour with a copper hue, and golden highlights. Nice creamyish, warm-beige head, good retention and some creamy lacing left. Dark fruits in aromas, caramel malts base, mild alcohol and hints of bananas, wood. The mouthfeel is not too thick with decent dryness in the finish. Nice hoppiness lingers adding a touch of bitterness. Warming, yet refreshing. Darker grain malts with a tad wheat. Quite a nicely-brewed, drinkable Wee Heavy.
