TORONTO, ON – A year after the first annual edition of the Ottawa Beer Run, the organizers of the charity event have announced a westward expansion, and will be holding a Toronto installment later this month.
Scheduled for Sunday September 21st, the Toronto Beer Run will allow participants to run the streets of Toronto and visit breweries along the way, all in support of Plan Canada.
Starting at 11:00 AM at Mill Street Brew Pub, 500 runners will head out in four waves on a 11.5 km course that will include stops and sampling at Amsterdam BrewHouse, Steam Whistle and The 3 Brewers, before finishing back at Mill Street with a wrap party.
For more details on the event, see the Beer Run website.

- 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.
- Greg C. is drinking a S.P.A. Special Pale Ale by Wellington Brewery at King & DufferinQuite a while since I had this last & it seems to have improved. Overall character is that of an authentic malt-forward UK pale ale.
- Greg C. is drinking a Farmhouse Dark by Stack Brewing at The Craft Brasserie & GrilleSharp & sour up fromt. Bit of caramel malt but not much else behind. Thin body struggles to carry the flavour. OK but needs refinement.
