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!

Pours a hazy, light-golden colour with a frothy white cap, average retention and some foamy lace. Aromas of hops from an IPA with some mild sweetness in the background from the malt. The taste also is IPA, but just a tad lighter than most, bordering the APA side by blending just a slight witbier. Unfortunately, I wish we could feel the white style better. Still, a good hoppy-hazy beer.

Can from the LCBO. Hazy gold with a small lingering white head. Nose has grass, pepper, light cloves, banana, lemon peel and some yeast. Flavour has a light cereal sweetness with light grassy bitterness and some spice. Mouth is a touch thin with prickly carbonation and a dry finish. Just OK. 7/3/7/3/13

This stout poured a deep black colour with a big brown head. Quite creamy with nice lacing. Scents include coffee, cocoa and a little gravy. First swig was bold and full of flavour. Quite sweet and syrupy. Flavours of brown sugar and coffee with a hint of Melloid cough drops. Coffee sweetness lingering.

Pours a real dark brown colour from the can with hardly any highlights. Mocha-coloured head, fizzy, bubbly, but decent lasting with some foamy patches. Chocolate malt aromas with some cocoa notes and roasted malts. Tasted malt taste with a very light sweetness and light hops in the finish. Not much lingers, kind of wet mouthfeel. Thicker though, but not syrupy. Alright overall, but wish it had more cocoa nibs and lactose. More flavours.

Pours a hazy golden colour with a nice white frothy cap, good stay and some nice thick creamy lacing. Very light grain smell. There seems to be a mild infected sourness at first, but this disappears quickly, leaving some light grain on the tongue. Even some hints of fruitiness (apples, citrus, melons). Actually pretty refreshing and easy to drink. Nothing too special, but a nice light golden ale.

This APA poured a cloudy, medium yellow colour with a big, white, foamy head. Minimal lacing. Scents include citrus hops, cream and malt. First swig was smooth with med/low carbonation. Slightly sharp on the palate at first with hop flavour but eases out. Flavours of honey, hops and very light cereal. Finish is bitter with hops lingering. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

1 Pint can from a LCBO in Ottawa. Clear golden with a big white head. Low fruity on the nose. Taste is malty, hop present in the second row, more than expected with the labeled 38 IBU but less fruity than expected. Long lasting bitterness in the aftertaste. Medicore.
