Neither the atmosphere nor brews are impressive, and less so than the three other brewpubs I visited in the area. Occasionally make something worth drinking.

Their before and after Reno is startling. Used to be a small tight space, very crowded. Now, it’s a large open space, beautiful bar with lots of taps. Well done

Seemed pretty busy on a Sunday afternoon. Good to see.

The front interior is open and pretty spacious; nicely decorated. There is a small fridge on the left; their four main beers were all available in bottles and growlers, in addition to a couple of one-offs/seasonals. The tasting area was packed so I just grabbed a few bottles from there instead of staying around for a sample. The staff had their hands full with some curious newcomers but were still helpful and quick to assist.

Definitely worth a visit. I don't get out to Guelph that often but there's enough breweries in that town to make a day trip out of it. Make sure to stop by this one, on the east-central outskirts of town.

Hidden gem in a plaza. I had heard about it from my brother-in-law.

Walk through the doors and the place is very open and quite modern looking.

Friendly staff behind the bar to purchase pints or try samples. Cooler on the left for pre filled growlers (1, 2 and 4L growlers available) They also have a growler filling station beside the bar to fill your bottles.

Had a really quick chat with them about being from Barrie and they mentioned they had heard good things about Barnstormers which is the new local brewpub in Barrie.

Had only been open 3 weeks and you can tell word had already started to spread about this place. Their newest release was already sold out and the bar was half full at 1pm.

Will definitely be a new go to when I visit my sister in law.
