Q: How do growlers work?
A: During the COVID-19 pandemic, we are not currently selling growlers. However, once we decide it is safe to do so, this is how our growler system works: The glassware itself is a $4.00 purchase for 1L and $5.00 purchase for 2L. The beer is an additional cost depending on the brand you choose. We recommend you drink the growler soon after purchase as fresh is always best- however, they will last up to three weeks if stored upright and chilled. Once finished, bring back your empty growler and trade it in for a full one for just the cost of the beer.
Q: Where can I find your beer?
A: Some of our core brands are available all year round at select LCBO, Grocery and Beer Store locations. If you can't find our product in your local LCBO/Grocery/Beer Store, simply request it to the Beer Ambassador who will contact us to arrange delivery. We are also on tap at various bars and restaurants across Ontario. Starting in 2021, you can also find us at Farmers Markets across the region including: Acton, Erin, Georgetown, Kitchener, Cambridge, Guelph, Elora, and Rockwood!
Q: Is your beer gluten free?
A: Due to the nature of brewing and the ingredients used in most of our product as well as the size of our facility, we are unable to produce gluten free beer at this time.
Q: Do you serve food at the brewery?
A: We do not serve food regularly at our facility, however we do have food trucks and caterers in often (keep posted to our instagram for updates) and we also encourage you to bring food from home or get delivery from one of our lovely local restaurants!
