Our staple IPA cleverly balances the tempered power and gentle nature of – say, an imaginary Tiger. Equally, it’s a perfect sidekick for any misadventure. The healthy quantity of oats punches up the creamy texture of the body throughout. Clean bitterness comes in right up front allowing the picture to fade over to a veritable fruit basket of hop aromas. Bold, juicy melon and crisp citrus is backed up with just enough pine to be reminiscent of the West Coast. This IPA is something you need in your life. Plain and simple.
A classic approach to a German wheat beer that’s far easier to drink than it is to pronounce. Fronting gentle sweetness and bright effervescence, the yeast that this style plays namesake to becomes the star. Leaning easier on the banana than the spice and clove, Hidden Lake is a light, approachable offering. *Cue a sun-drenched, open meadow spin a la Julie Andrews*.
No longer reserved for summer skies in Bobcaygeon, Revealed Constellations can now be enjoyed equally any of those nights in Toronto. SMaSH feels as appropriate a descriptor for how to drink this session IPA as it does an acronym: Single Malt and Single Hop. Stripped down to a slight, and agile little recipe, with 100% Golden Promise malts, and 100% Mosaic hops, there’s an abundance of juicy tangerine right up front. Mango and light aromas of grass and pine follow tightly behind.
Eastbound’s gateway beer, Backpacker Blonde Ale is a beer that’s welcoming for newcomers to craft beer but still full flavoured for crafty vets. Light honey aromas blend into a clean, mild malt body that allows for just a hint of fruit flavours from the Willamette hops and yeast esters. Flavourful, crisp, and endlessly drinkable this is the kind of pantry stock that should always be at the ready. A favourite at our Toronto brewpub and fast becoming a favourite everywhere.
