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 a Chocolate Cheesecake Milkshake Stout by Rochester Mills Beer Co. at King & DufferinThe flavour delivers what the name promises. And like most cheesecake it’s too sweet for me personally. But I can still see the attraction.
- Greg C. is drinking an Union Pearson Ale by Henderson Brewing Co at King & DufferinRecently reformulated & better for it. Strong citrus character, bit of pine, malt backnote. Reminds me of classic US IPAs & that’s good.
- Greg C. is drinking a Route 26 by Northwinds Brewhouse & Kitchen at King & DufferinVery nice roasty character, notes of cocoa and hazelnut, good hit of hops to balance. Glad a friend from the area passed this along to me.
- Greg C. is drinking a Bianca Mango Lassi Gose (6%) by Omnipollo at King & DufferinOn paper, this seems like a gimmick beer I should hate. In reality, it’s a delicious explosion of milky & slightly salty mango that I love.
- Greg C. is drinking an Only Mistral IPA by Stone City Ales at King & DufferinNicely balanced beer that shows off the sweet citrus & slightly floral notes of the hops. Restrained for an IPA, but still enjoyed it.
