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.

Bottle from the brewery. Slightly hazy yellow pour, no head, beer is flat. Aroma is very funky, lambic nose. Horesey, and barny, with some lemon zest and wet funk. Peach is tough to find, but it's upfront in the finish. Extremely tart and sour. Funky with pronounced peach in the end.

Can from the brewery. Opaque orange, with a small white head. Looks exsctly like a glass of orange juice. Aroma is potent tangerine oils, and vanilla. Mouth feel is like mango nectar, with a soft carb. Finish is tart, and pithy, light vanilla, with a boat load of citrus oils. Medium to highly butter, the pithiness is really ramped up.
