TORONTO, ON – NOW Magazine reports that Toronto punk band PUP has partnered with Great Lakes Brewery and Bar Hop on a limited edition collaborative beer.
The Dream Is Hungover is a “New World farmhouse ale” that takes its name from PUP’s latest album, The Dream Is Over, and has the following description:
You’ll find subtle stone fruit and tropical fruit, effervescence and prominent Brett ester character, all while the overall character of the yeast blend combines with the New Zealand hops to create additional pineapple, pear and citrus notes. It’s refreshing and inviting.
The Dream Is Hungover will be going on tap tomorrow (Friday July 29) exclusively at the 137 Peter Street location of Bar Hop. The first pints will be poured at 7:30 PM, and quantities are limited.

- Greg C. is drinking a Barn Owl (No. 18) by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinGood balance of tart passionfruit & mildly funky sour ale, with supporting notes of oak, lemon, stonefruit & pineapple. Sharp & satisfying.
- Greg C. is drinking a Social Parade DDH IPA by Black Lab Brewing at Black Lab BrewingOh, that’s dank. And delicious. Lotsa grapefruit, some ripe peach, hint of spruce. Drinks dangerously quickly for the abv.
- Greg C. is drinking a Sitting Pretty APA by Black Lab Brewing at Black Lab BrewingDelivers the dominant citrus promised in the description, along with some pine and a peppery backnote, perhaps from the rye.
- Greg C. is drinking a Raspberry Lemon Rosemary Kennel Sour by Black Lab Brewing at Black Lab BrewingStarts with raspberry, with lemon coming through in the middle, and rosemary sitting nicely in the finish. Super summer beverage.
- Greg C. is drinking a Li'l Hobo Hefeweizen by Black Lab Brewing at Black Lab BrewingNot as hazy as I expect from the style - it’s more Kristall than Hefe - but the banana & clove notes are there, along with a bit of lemon.
