OTTAWA, ON – Kichesippi Beer Co. has announced that a beer originally released in 2012 to mark the brewery’s 2nd anniversary is now back with a new name that commemorates a part of Ottawa history.
Kichesippi Car 696 is a 6.3% abv Maibock named after one of the fleet of streetcars that operated in Ottawa from 1891 to 1959. This particular streetcar went into service in 1917, and is currently being restored for its 100th anniversary next year.
Car 696 will be available in 473 ml cans exclusively at the Kichesippi retail store until mid-June.

- 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.
