Muskoka Brewery - Premium Craft Beer

Brewery Banter... 

Greetings!

It looks like 2012 could be the biggest and best year in the history of Muskoka Brewery. A new larger and luscious brew house, a new seasonal beer, an improved selection pack, new packaging additions for Dark Ale, Mad Tom IPA and Summer Weiss, expansion into popular eateries such as Moxie's Classic Grill and Jack Astor's...the list could go on.  

 

It is already obvious 2012 is going to fly by, so hang on tight, enjoy the ride and viva la Craft Beer revolution.

Hidden Treasures

Experience our Hidden Kitchen

Muskoka Brewery is proud to host its third Hidden Kitchen series - a culinary event that is really boosting the profile of the brewery and showcasing the amazing beer we make.

Hidden Kitchen is a monthly dining experience with top chefs and their creations in mystery locations; warehouses, furniture factories, open fields and wherever else we can find. So far a trendy loft and a Belgian waffle house have been utilized with sturgeon and Deep South BBQ the menu items.

 

Hosted by top food writer Ivy Knight and Chef Matt Kantor, the next event will take place May 31 at a yet to be named venue. Anthony Rose, formerly of the Drake Hotel, will be the guest chef and the menu will feature Gourmet Junk Food.

 

Tickets are $100 and the event is limited to just 40 patrons; the secret of where they will be dining is revealed the day before dinner is served. Contact Liz or Jake at the brewery for more details. Tap.room@muskokabrewery.com or 705 646-1266.

 

Spring Oddity and Summer Weiss

 Spring Oddity and Summer Weiss - Get them soon!

Muskoka Brewery's latest beer hit the shelves with a vengeance.

Each year the tempered thaw of a Muskoka winter gives rise to new and strange creations. Legends date back to the 1800s when lumberjacks and fur traders took to the woods and encountered the mysterious culture and wildlife in the unknown Northern Ontario region. Today, we echo our ancestor's quest and have unearthed this season's most distinct offerings. Heather tips, juniper berries, sweet orange peel shavings, Belgian candi sugar and Belgian yeast combine for one amazing taste experience. The culmination of these ingredients rests in Muskoka's Legendary Spring Oddity. We invite you to Release the Legend.

It is now available from the retail store or at LCBO and Beer Stores across Ontario for $9.95 for a 750ml bottle.

In just a few short weeks the annual release of Muskoka Brewery's Summer Weiss means the start of summer officially begins. Get it while it is fresh. $12.95 for two 750ml bottles.
What's up next?

Toronto Burger Week

 

May 30 to June 3 - Toronto.  

Toronto Burger Week. A whole week dedicated to the less-than-humble burger (we are not talking frozen, pre-made patties on a stale bun here). Organized by The Grid magazine it will be promoting the best burgers the city of T.O. has to offer - all washed down with lots of Muskoka beer.

Ready for a GREAT year! 

The construction of the new brewery has been the single largest project ever carried out in the history of Muskoka Brewery. The current location is tightly packed into 11,000 sq ft but the new site will more than triple our footprint. We are going to need bikes or Segways to get around. Plans for a light railway were disappointingly shot down before we could even get and estimate together.

 

Of course we hired the most amazing people to get this job done and it is all coming together without a single hitch, on time and under budget. Well there's been a few hiccups here or there and maybe one or two additional costs but the people getting it done have been tremendous. Plus it has been an incredible experience watching a giant empty space slowly become the brewery we all deserve.

 

So in no time at all we will be raising a glass to the hard work put in by all involved. We can't wait to see the first bottles rolling off the line because then we will all know the hard work and investment has been worth it.  

Then we can focus on what we do best - making seriously awesome beer.

 

Yours in good health,

 

Everyone at Muskoka Brewery
