Strong porter from Bellwoods Brewery in Toronto. I like how this porter pours with a bubbly almost tan head which stays for most of the glass. It’s got a good balanced flavour and is surprisinglyContinue reading
Black Oak Pale Ale (5%)
Amber coloured ale with soft carbonation. The body has a light to medium flavour followed quickly with crisp hops. It has some of the bite of a North American IPA but is easier drinking andContinue reading
Cause & Effect (4.7%)

Great ale with which is surprisingly bitter for an oatmeal ale. The initial bitterness is followed by a roasted nuttiness and then a clean finish. Very easy drinking beer, perfect with a curry or roastedContinue reading

Old Style Pilsner (5%)
