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 Not A Word Spoken - Apricot IPA by Wellington Brewery at King & DufferinExactly what I expect from a hazy IPA made with Simcoe & Citra hops and laced with apricot - i.e. big, bright, juicy, aromatic.
- Greg C. is drinking a Stout by Big Drop Brewing Co at King & DufferinThe low abv is betrayed somewhat by the light body, but the flavour is that of a proper pub stout - cocoa, coffee, slight smoky tang. Nice!
- Greg C. is drinking a Vintage Ale (2016) by Fuller, Smith & Turner at King & DufferinPort & plum preserves up front, touch of leather, good balance through the middle, bit warm in the finish.
- Greg C. is drinking an Ikinuki Ungespundetes Kellerbier by Godspeed Brewery at Bar Hop BrewcoGood lager with strong malt base but heavy hit of hops as well. Good body, full but not heavy. A pleasure to drink.
- Greg C. is drinking an After Hours: Raspberry Sour by PEI Brewing Company (Gahan) at King & DufferinSurprised to find this treat from my home province at the LCBO. Very good raspberry sour with natural tasting tart berry flavour.
