Description
Bellwoods Brewery began as a small brewpub in the west end of Toronto in 2012, and underwent a couple modest growth spurts over the years to encompass two retail shops (selling fresh cans and bottles), and a production brewery in North York (mostly to house The Foeder Pyramid). These days, we produce about 18,000hL a year, which is a mere blip in the grand scheme of Ontario beer, but keeps us pretty busy. The styles we’re interested in brewing range greatly, and we always remain open to new ways of making beer. For the most part, our current efforts are devoted to aromatic hoppy stuff, crisp lagers, barrel aged wild blends, fruit-forward zingers, and the occasional barrel aged stout. There’s always a new, creative project waiting in the wings. We’re still a relatively small, collaborative team, forever dedicated to the pursuit of perfect beer–thanks so much for partaking in the fruits of our labour.

473mL can. Pours murky dull gold with a white head. Nice funky wild yeast and grapes on the nose. Flavour has earthy wild yeast, good funk, musty grape skins. It's pretty tame for this series, even after coming to temperature a bit, but it's still really nice. I do wish there was more grape character though.

A hazed milky pink grapefruit juice with a very thin white head. In aroma, sweet fruity mix of tart berries, light mango, light lactic notes, very nice. In mouth, a nice tart mix of tart berries, raspberries, light Epsom salts, very nice. On tap at Dominion City.

Can thanks for my bro, picked up at Fountainhall Wines. It pours ludicrous cloudy mango orange with a quickly dissipating white head. The aroma is sweet - sour, juicy, tangy, crunchy mango, Zingy, lemon - lime, margarita, salty crackers and natural yoghurt. The taste is crisp, dry, zingy, zesty, puckering, light acidity, crunchy green mango, apricot, pithy, lime sherbet and fizzy sour candy with a slightly green, chalky mango finish. Average body and fine, prickly carbonation. Easy chugging stuff.

473ml can. Murky yellow, white head. Aroma of mandarin, grapefruit, mango, pineapple. Taste is very citrusy, mandarin, grapefruit, some tropical mango and pineapple, peach, low bitterness. Medium bodied.
From a British perspective this is Canada's answer to Steady Rolling Man. Just a really nice, flavourful, easy drinking, core range pale ale.
