HALIFAX, NS – In what is likely to be a continuation of the Alexander Keith’s Brewmaster Series of limited edition beers, Keith’s Hop Mason Ale is set to be released soon by the Labatt-owned brewery.

According to a product listing on the website of Ontario’s Beer Store chain, Hop Mason is described as follows:

A tribute to Alexander Keith’s leadership of the Atlantic Freemasons, this hop-forward ale balances the dominant notes of citrus and grapefruit of the aromatic Centennial hop with rich malt and a robust bitterness.

It’s unclear at this point how widely available this beer will be, and in what formats it will be distributed, but based on the above-noted product listing, it will be available on draught in Ontario. Further updates will be reported here on CBN as details become available.

UPDATE: After the original post above was published, Prime Pubs – a chain of pubs in Ontario and Alberta that includes D’Arcy McGee’s, Fionn MacCool’s, Paddy Flaherty’s and Tir Nan Ògannounced on its Facebook page that Hop Mason is “an awesome Alexander Keith’s beer brewed exclusively for Prime Pubs”.
