Friday Beer Break with Fearless Fred — Amsterdam De Wallen
So we’re totally stoked to have Amsterdam join us in partnership for the beer break for the next few weeks! And of course, a big thanks to our friends at Toronto’s Festival of Beer for all the fun these past few months. Onward! Today Fred and Chris were hanging out with Iain McOustra, head brewer […]
Maverick and Gose — Amsterdam Brewing Co and Great Lakes Brewery
You might recall a few weeks back I wrote about how Maverick and Gose was about to become the first all-Ontario collaboration to hit the LCBO. Well, after the usual LCBO bureaucratic hiccup, it is rolling out! If you want me to save you some time, Gose is a style you can be forgiven for […]
Fracture Double IPA — Amsterdam Brewing Co.
I love hops, and I hope you do too. In fact, I have three hop plants on order from Toronto Brewing as we speak. I also have a hop vine at my mother’s house. So, you would assume that I was a pretty big hop head. Give me the biggest, brashest, hoppiest thing you can […]
Maverick and Gose

Well, last month’s Brewmance wasn’t a home run, but this month, we’ve got Iain McOustra from Amsterdam Brewing Co. and a big old jug of Brettanomyces Bruxellensis. Indeed, we’re going with a 100% brett pale ale, and a huge shot of fruity hops to finish it. Full video below, and recipe (sort of) there after.
Market Pale Ale — Amsterdam Brewing Co.
One of the best parts of spring returning, is the return of the dozens of farmer’s markets around Toronto. Nothing is better than wandering around, seeing neighbours, and meeting the people who grow your produce. I take my kids to St Lawrence Market most Saturday mornings, but through the summer month, I alternate weekly, and […]
