TORONTO, ON – Beer import agency Silvercreek Import Partners has announced that it has brought North America’s first Trappist beer to Ontario for the first time.
Spencer Brewery was launched in early 2014 by the monks of St. Joseph’s Abbey in Spencer, Massachusetts. One of only 11 Trappist breweries in the world, and the first outside of Europe, its flagship beer is Spencer Trappist Ale, a 6.5% abv Belgian-style ale described as “a full-bodied, sunrise-hued ale with fruity accents, a dry finish and light hop bitterness.”
Spencer Trappist Ale made its Ontario debut earlier this month and is available at select LCBO locations throughout the province. For more details about the release, see the Silvercreek Import Partners website.

- Greg C. is drinking a LAGERSHED Lighter by Shawn & Ed Brewing Co. at King & DufferinLight body, crisp on palate, balanced flavour with clean malt and herbal hops. Simple and quenching, just as a light lager should be.
- Greg C. is drinking a White Space Wheat by Mill Street Brewery at King & DufferinChamomile comes through, and a bit of coriander, but blood orange is barely there, just a hint in the finish. Base wheat ale is OK.
- Greg C. is drinking a LAGERSHED Valley Wheat by Shawn & Ed Brewing Co. at King & DufferinSeems to be in the German style, with notes of clove and banana, although both are a bit more subtle than usual. Quite pleasant, though.
- Greg C. is drinking a Brett Furlong by Indie Alehouse at King & DufferinMild funk, notes of peach & lemon, hint of peppery yeast, effervescent mouthfeel, herbal finish. Very, very nice!
- Greg C. is drinking a Digger's Wit by Wellington Brewery at King & DufferinDelivers what it promises, i.e. An essentially on-style wit with a more pronounced citrus character from the lemon & lime zest.
