About
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.

This IPA poured a nice amber colour with a big, soapy, off white head. Scents include grassy hops and root vegetables. First swig was quite hoppy with flavors of hay and grass. Finish was quite hoppy and bitter with grass finishing off the palate.

500mL bottle, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out lots of roasted malt and dry piney hops. Flavour is very well-balanced with roasted malt and piney hops. Dry and roasty ,but not harsh at all. Very good stuff.

500mL can, pours a hazy copper orange with a beige head. Aroma brings out lots of orange and floral notes. Flavour is along the same lines, with a lot of orange rinds, some tropical fruitiness, and a light floral quality. Lots of oranges dominating. Very good.

500mL can, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out espresso and roasted malt. Flavour is robust for a porter, with lots of espresso and roasted malt. Just a touch of sweetness, with a roasty bitter finish. Very nice stuff.

State of Mind from Collective Arts Brewing

6.4/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 6.5
Slightly hazy, light-yellow colour with a white head, good stay and some foamy lace. Great aromas of hops with some grass and even coriander. The taste unfortunatly is quite mild with the hops. Very light bitterness. Does what a mild Session IPA should do. Lots of other Session IPA that are punchier out there.
