TORONTO, ON – Bar Hop, one of Toronto’s top craft beer bars, has announced the upcoming launch of a new monthly event series that will combine mini tap takeovers with a brewery meet & greet.
Taking place on the first Wednesday of each month, Hop Talk will “not only feature unique and specialty beers, but will also offer patrons a chance to chat with the people who make them.”
The series will be kicking off next Wednesday April 2nd at 5:00 PM with a spotlight on Indie Alehouse. Brewery founder Jason Fisher and brewmaster Jeff Broeders will be on hand to chat with attendees and present five unique beers:
- Rabbit of Caerbannog, a white IPA brewed with the staff of Bar Hop
- Spadina Monkey, a barrel-aged sour
- Cockpuncher, an imperial IPA created in collaboration with Sawdust City
- Crush, an imperial witbier with blood oranges brewed in collaboration with Amsterdam Brewery
- Ned’s ‘Stache, a Flanders brown
Admission is free for all Hop Talk events, and the featured beers will be available to purchase in both 5 oz samples and full servings.

- Greg C. is drinking a Venskab by Beau's All Natural Brewing Company at King & DufferinClose to 7 years old but still in great condition. Well carbonated, notes of pineapple and oaked white wine, dry & peppery finish.
- Greg C. is drinking a Wiseman’s Weizenbock by Mill Street Brewery at King & DufferinUpfront malty sweetness, notes of banana bread & raisin & cocoa & dried cherry, medium bodied, hint of booze. Well made & right on style.
- 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.
