OTTAWA, ON – The red-hot craft brewing scene in Eastern Ontario is set to get hotter still this weekend, with the opening of Broken Stick Brewing in Ottawa.
As reported by Ottawa Beer Events, Broken Stick is being launched by a homebrewer named Eric (no last name given) and several partners, who will be brewing small batches of two flagship beers – Tipsy Pale Ale and Socks and Sandals IPA – and rotating seasonals on a 5 hectolitre system.
The Broken Stick retail store will be open tomorrow (November 29th) from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM, selling 1.89 L growlers and 750 ml “grumblers” of both core brands.
For more details, see the Broken Stick website and Facebook page.

- Greg C. is drinking a Trash Panda by Parallel 49 Brewing Company at King & DufferinMore murky than hazy. Flavour is a bit muddled at first, but some nice fruit notes - peach, pineapple, mango - come through as it opens up.
- Greg C. is drinking a Too Wound Down by Bell City Brewing Company at King & DufferinI question the Session IPA classification given the fairly low IBU, but this is still a more than acceptable pale ale.
- Greg C. is drinking a RoboHop Imperial IPA by Great Lakes BreweryA modern classic of the IIPA style, at least in Ontario. Strong malt base supporting a blast of citrus, pine & tropical fruit hops.
- Greg C. is drinking a Camp-Out Pils (Moonlight Kettle Graduate 2019) by Muskoka Brewery at King & DufferinThe Motueka hops are similar enough to Saaz to fit this excellent Pils, but also have a citrus zest character that adds a unique edge.
- Greg C. is drinking a Trappist Ale by Spencer Brewery at King & DufferinStrong fruit preserve notes - esp. pineapple & peach - that lean a bit sweeter than my preference, but still improved from early days.
