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.

Bottle from the LCBO. Pours a light hazy orange with generous cream coloured head. that leaves lots of lace. Nose is heavy pine and grapefruit. Great up front bitterness with some sweet toffee and a good dry bitter finish. Body and carbonation are average and feels a little thinner than you would expect but that actually seems to make it more enjoyable. Pleasantly surprised by this one.

(Draught at Bryden’s, Sept 18 2013) Pours a dark orangish gold with a fairly dense white head, some lacing. Aroma grapefruit pith, a bit dank (weed and wet vegetation both), faint pine, some caramel malt and grains, slight tang that is almost salty. Flavour has grapefruit pith, a bit dank and Simcoe-ish, faint pine. Crystal malt sweetness apparent, moderate bitterness from mid-palate on. Rather grainy in the finish with a dry hop bitterness. Palate is medium, typical pale ale, but carb is strong and hard and I had to swirl this a lot. Really a good effort from a new brewer though, hopping worked well, I hope they continue to improve.

Nice little pale ale from a new brewer. Good initial hops aroma with a little tangerine and citrus.Everything here is well balanced and makes for a good session pale. Pours golden blonde with decent lacing and head. Soft carbonation. Some sweet malt comes through with hops. Finishes with light bitterness. A start on a pretty good note here. Tap at volos.
