Description
Collective Arts Brewing is a grassroots craft brewery that aims to fuse the creativity of craft beer with the inspired talents of emerging artists and musicians. Collective Arts Brewing was founded on two beliefs: The first that creativity fosters creativity. And the second, that creativity yields delicious pints. We feature limited-edition works of art on our beer cans and labels, and we work to make sure the liquid on the inside is as diverse and creative as the artists we profile. Our brewery is located in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. This is where we brew everything from our flagship IPA Ransack the Universe to our World Beer Cup-winning Stranger than Fiction porter. In our taproom we pour up to 10 different beers at one time, samples and flights, we host brewery tours and live entertainment weekly. Stop by to see our beer bottle gallery showcasing every artist we’ve worked with over the past 6 years.

Can at Free Beer thanks to Free Beer. Very dark brown. Cardamom, milk chocolate, rum, spices, oxidized notes, apple, paper. Very sweet, light bitter. Over medium bodied. Too old, still not bad though.

Can. A quite bitter one, with grapefruit and a tropical fruit touch. Quite tasteful this one, although not very complex. 747413 260405

Wow! When they said DIPA with grapefruit - they really meant it !! Full pink grapefruit aromas, look of their pinkish-orange juice colour and that amazing juiciness of the Ruby Red grapefruits. The hops blend well with the mild bitterness of the citrus zestiness. Does not feel like 8% at all. Really, really feels like a Ruby Red grapefruit juice, more than a DIPA - so might be able to fool a few that are not into IPAs.

A deep dark porter with a thick frothy creamy mocha head. In aroma, sweet fruity chocolate malt with dark coffee, light mineral notes, pleasant. In mouth, a nice chocolate malt with light coffee notes, light cereals, pleasant. On tap at Wellington Gastropub.
