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 Venskab by Beau's All Natural Brewing Company at King & DufferinClose to 7 years old but still in great condition. Well carbonated, notes of pineapple and oaked white wine, dry & peppery finish.
- Greg C. is drinking a Wiseman’s Weizenbock by Mill Street Brewery at King & DufferinUpfront malty sweetness, notes of banana bread & raisin & cocoa & dried cherry, medium bodied, hint of booze. Well made & right on style.
- Greg C. is drinking a Heir Apparent by Lickinghole Creek Craft Brewery at King & DufferinPepper beers aren’t usually my thing but this is an exception. Great balance to all the flavours and abv is not obvious at all. Impressive!
- Greg C. is drinking a Tripel Thread by Kensington Brewing Company at King & Dufferin11 months old. I tend to prefer my Tripels on the drier side, but this is still a pretty good one. Tart gooseberry notes cut the sweetness.
- Greg C. is drinking a Monogamy (Callista) by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinNot very familiar with Callista hops but they work well here, bringing notes of apricot, gooseberry, blueberry & a slight floral edge.
