Kingsville Brewery
2 hours
There is more to beer than simply what it tastes like. The best beer deserves to be enjoyed at the right place and the right time. Where you can hear yourself think, surrounded by landscapes you’ve never seen. Growing up in Canada, the outdoors wasn’t just somewhere we went, it was part of who we were. Our childhood was filled with places that changed us; places we can still see when we close our eyes that made the world feel bigger. No matter what we did with our lives, we promised never to lose that spirit of the wood runners that came before us. Our beer was brewed for the wild, for the untamed traveler, and for places unseen. Our flavours are inspired by memories of hockey on a mirrored frozen lake, fishing at a secret spot only we knew of, and campfire dinners under a bed of stars. While each beer is unique, they all should be paired with crisp open air and good company.
