GLENORA, ON – Barley Days Brewery have recently released a new seasonal beer, and have the return of another planned.
Their brand new May Bock is out now, and was crafted by brewmaster Jan Rorig to be “reminiscent of his German home”. It’s available in bottles at the brewery, and on tap at select bars including Volo in Toronto.
Returning soon will be their Summer Light Ale, a mild golden ale originally offered last summer. It will be one of the beers featured at the Spring Festival of Craft Breweries taking place next Friday, May 22nd at C’est What in Toronto.

- 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.
- Greg C. is drinking a S.P.A. Special Pale Ale by Wellington Brewery at King & DufferinQuite a while since I had this last & it seems to have improved. Overall character is that of an authentic malt-forward UK pale ale.
- Greg C. is drinking a Farmhouse Dark by Stack Brewing at The Craft Brasserie & GrilleSharp & sour up fromt. Bit of caramel malt but not much else behind. Thin body struggles to carry the flavour. OK but needs refinement.
