Description
Brewing high-quality beer, without excessive alcohol content, is what it’s all about. The name Sonnen Hill comes from Sonne, which translates to sun and our family name Hill.

Sonnen Hill was founded in 2017 and we started brewing beer in 2018. For our first two years we were a very small operation and only distributed products to bars and restaurants across Ontario. In 2020, we opened our bottle shop in the height of the pandemic and now sometimes send beer to other provinces across Canada and countries in Europe and Asia. We are family-owned and -operated and are a small team of passionate individuals who work very hard to produce the quality products that we do.

On tap at Bar Lupulus, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma reveals a nice wild yeast character, with plenty of brett funk and some rustic notes. Flavour is very similar, with plenty of wild bacteria, moderate funk, and rustic notes. Fairly complex for a low ABV saison. There's almost a plasticy character underneath that isn't desirable. The bugs have worked nicely here though. Good.

375mL bottle, pours a hazy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of spicy pepper, rustic farmhouse yeast, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is crisp, with a nice spicy yeast character, some gentle black pepper, and a little funk. Dry and rustic, with a good saison yeast profile. Very good.
