Description
It was a hot summer day and we were kicking back on a dock near Bobcaygeon. We were deep in a craft beer discussion when it dawned on us – why not start our own brewery? Sure it would take a ton of a hard work with long hours, recipe creation, branding and financing, but it’s doable, right?

In August 2017, we laid eyes on the old post office at 17 Bolton Street in Bobcaygeon, Ontario – what a fine brewery it would make. We submitted a proposal to flip the building into a brewery and were lucky enough to get the green light.

Now we’re on track to bring Bobcaygeon to Bobcaygeon. We’re working hard at renovating the building, and when we’re done we’ll have a full production facility, retail store and tap room offering our core line up of delicious beer along with a variety of seasonals and one-offs. To say we’re excited is an understatement. Our dream of making great craft beer to be enjoyed among friends is coming true.

In the meantime, we’ve opened our Innovation Lab in Peterborough at 649 The Parkway, Unit 4. The focus here will be on unique offerings, with plenty of one offs and different beers to try. Brewing will happen on site, or you can try the beers in our tasting room and purchase beer to go in our Gift Shop. Visit us today!

A very slight haze, deep amber colour with some golden highlights, a warm-beige frothy-creamy cap that creates nice foamy-wavy lacing. The smell gives me lots of banana, so maybe lots wheat in here with the coffee undertones. Grassy hops do come out after breathing, with almost a spicy cereal grain like rye. The mouthfeel is thicker, and does stick to the tongue, but the hops do help out cut this a bit to not be too syrupy. More pumpkiny and their spices in the taste, but banana still lingers. Feels more like a banana-coffee bread brew, but alcohol does the job.

This IPA poured a deep black colour with a light tan coloured head. Nice lacing. Scents include dark toast, ripe fruit, cardboard, minimal white glue, molasses and light coffee. First swig was very nice and roasty. Flavours of coffee, dark chocolate and hops. Finish is burnt, with coffee flavours lingering.

Lightly hazed, slightly unfiltered bright light-yellow colour with fluffy, bubbly mildly off-white cap, decent retention and leaving some good foamy lacing. Herbal and spicy hops that I enjoy in this one. Same for taste with more grassiness. Mild citrus zest lingers. Does the job for the low calorie, low alcohol - and with the hops I really enjoy.
