TUESDAY
This Saison style beer is hopped with Mistral Hops from Alsace. These hops tend to be less piney and herbal than Chinook or Mosaic, imparting citrus and floral notes. It was can conditioned for better texture and mousse. 5.5% ABV
MONDAY
This beer is designed to be a lighter version of their flagship beer, Tuesday. The saison is brewed with pilsner malt and Ontario wheat and dry hopped with fruitier hops. It’s slightly higher carbonation than Tuesday. 3.2% ABV
lees
This beer is a blend of barrel aged and fresh beers aged on Riesling lees. It is then bottle conditioned for even more texture. 5.1% ABV
fm3000
This is a blend of several mixed culture saisons brewed in 2017. They were barred aged for two years to mellow out the acidity. It was then bottled conditioned for a year before release. 6% ABV
VERMONT BLONd
To quote Burdock: “For when you want beer”. This beer is fermenting using a fairly neutral yeast that promotes the production of grapefruit-esters. It is lightly dry-hopped with Citra. 4.5% ABV
bloor light
Fermented with Escarpment Labs KRISPY Kveik, this beer emulates an American Lager. The goal is a neutral fermentation to let pure delicate grain flavours shine through. 3.1% ABV
small hoppy beer
This low abv rendition of an IPA is dry hopped with Simcoe (12-14% Alpha Acid contributing both bitterness and woodsy/stone fruit flavours) & Idaho 7 (13-15% Alpha Acids with sweet citrus and tea-like herbs). It is fermented with Hydra Yeast, a new strain from Escarpment Labs designed for low alcohol beers. 2.9% ABV
zesté golden plum
Last year, they decided to juice some golden plums, storing the sweet liquid in stainless steel for a future project. The juice eventually found a home in a sour, dry hopped with Nelson Sauvin (a shockingly fruity variety reminiscent of Sauvignon Blanc and Kiwi). 5% ABV
brett lime
The base for this beer is made from pilsner malt and corn, co-fermented with keylime juice and zest. Post-fermentation, 20% Viognier is blended in before the beer is can-conditioned. It’s essentially their rendition of a white wine spritz.
best fruits
This base for this beer is a saison aged on golden plums grown in Beamsville, Ontario. After a year long élevage in stainless steel they blend in 45% Chardonnay. The beer is then bottle conditioned for better bubble texture. 11.1% ABV
