OTTAWA, ON – The Capital Pint blog on the Ottawa Magazine website reports that Ottawa’s oldest craft brewery and one of the city’s newest will be releasing a unique collaborative brew today as part of Ontario Craft Beer Week.
Half in the Barrel is an ale created by The Clocktower Brew Pub and Beyond The Pale Brewing which will be available tonight (June 19th) at the Westboro location of the Clocktower chain in six different variations – draught and cask versions aged in Cabernet Franc and Merlot barrels, an unaged draught version, and an unaged cask version dry-hopped with Nelson Sauvin hops.
The $15 admission will get attendees a flight of 5 oz glasses of all six versions, as well as special deals on other Clocktower beers, and a chance to chat with the brewmasters from both breweries.
The column also notes that Clocktower is planning to offer growlers and bottles from take-home sales, with brewmaster Patrick Fiori hoping that retail sales will start later this year.

- 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.
- Greg C. is drinking a Breakfast Stout by Founders Brewing Co. at King & DufferinClose to 2 years old. A bit oxidized but still everything you expect from FBS - chocolate, coffee, tasted oats & more. Always a classic.
- Greg C. is drinking a Monks' Reserve Ale by Spencer Brewery at King & DufferinDoesn’t have the depth of a Belgian Trappist, but for a New World take on a Quad, it’s very good with strong malt base & nice spice notes.
- Greg C. is drinking an Extra Brut Ipa by 3 Brasseurs | 3 Brewers at The 3 BrewersHits the target for what I expect from the style - very dry, effervescent, aromatic, refreshing & quick to drink. Well done!
