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 from the LCBO. Pitch black under a lingering khaki head. Nose is dark chocolate, espresso, toast, molasses, some light grass and hints of vanilla. Medium- bitter chocolate with some nuttiness over a light sweet molasses. Mouth is medium- and creamy with soft carbonation and a lingering dry finish. Enjoyable.

Pours a dark brown colour with minimal highlights. Nice creamy mocha-beige head, good retention and thick foamy lace. Beautiful chocolate aromas at first with some mild dark fruits and hops that are released later. The taste is more roasted malt with very mild sweetness and some nice dryness in the finish. The burnt grain lingers lightly on the tongue. A very easy-drinking porter (seems more like a stout from the flavours) with well-balanced hops. Quite pleasant overall.
