Visited with my wife while attending a weekend wedding in Collingwood, Ontario.

Tried the following beers:
Northwinds Lost Cabin Viena Lager (flight sample)
Northwinds Three Stage XPA (flight sample)
Northwinds Nosey Parker (flight sample)
Northwinds Rainmaker IPA (flight sample)

Beers ranged from good to great. Service was quick and friendly, and we enjoyed the lively atmosphere at the bar. I also grabbed some beer to go. Our overall experience was awesome, and we would definitely come back.

Perfect vibe for Collingwood. Rustic touches, 14 rotating beers, including guest taps, well stocked bottle shop, growler fills and t-shirts. Food is eclectic and comforting. Never been disappointed.

Dropped in for a quick pint and snack in the late afternoon on a Saturday in February. The place was humming. We were seated pretty quick. Our server alerted us to the specials. We ordered Wee Willie Winkles (Lager) and Route 26 (Brown ale) and a plate of perogies. Both food and libations were delivered quickly. The pergoies were fantastic. The beer was good but nothing ground breakingly special. Didn't that the glass was $5 each before 6 pm. Having said that this is a great place to enjoy good food and a wide variety of beer styles even if they aren't the absolute best you'll ever have. Definitely recommend and we'll return again when we're able to spend more time.
