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 Bumo (Version IV) by Burdock at King & DufferinNotes of red wine, cherry wood, fruit gums, elegant funk. Pretty special stuff.
- Greg C. is drinking a Peach Uber by Nickel Brook Brewing Co. at King & DufferinMy lack of enthusiasm for peach beverages makes this my least favourite Uber. But that said, it’s still a very good sour. Just not my thing.
- Greg C. is drinking a Shirley Street Sorbet Sour by Lot 30 Brewers at King & DufferinUsually not a fan of the strawberry-kiwi combo, but it works very well here. Vanilla also gives a nice balance to the lemony sourness.
- Greg C. is drinking a Gose-Zilla by Northern Maverick Brewing at King & DufferinSubdued at first but opens up as it warms. Lemon & lime zest, coriander, brackish salty backnote. Could be more refined but still good.
- Greg C. is drinking a Velvet Dreams by Folly Brewpub at King & DufferinTastes of black raspberries with backing vanilla and mildly sour base beer. Hint of spiced cherry as well. Simple but effective.
