Description
Lowertown Brewery opened in June 2014. It features an open concept kitchen, filled with tantalizing smells of succulent ribs, brisket and chicken slow-cooking in our in-house smoker.

The craft aesthetics and Lowertown feel of the interior are matched only by the patio, which offers all-day sun for those who prefer to enjoy their craft beer and amazing sandwiches in the fresh Ottawa air.

Pint at Barryman’s Pub. Pours a clear golden-amber colour with a warm cap, decent lasting and good lacing. Fruity nose with sweet herbal hop notes. Nice herbal tasting with decent bitterness and mild dryness in the finish. Floral and hints of burnt malt lingers. Pretty nice well-balanced IPA with the grassy hops and fruitiness. Quite refreshing overall.

Keg at Ottawa Winter Brewfest. Disclaimer: This event used plastic cups, which may have prevented my ability to fully appreciate this beer. Hazy amber, mid sized head. Sheer butterscotch aroma. Mid sweet with medium body and clean mouthfeel. Butterscotch and, well... more butterscotch. Resiny bitter finish. Basic and flawed.
