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 Collective Project: IPA No. 8 by Collective Arts Brewing at King & DufferinI honestly can’t add much to what the commercial description already tells you, except to say that it’s excellent.
- Greg C. is drinking a Brett Peach by Burdock at King & Dufferin2+ years old but still lively & effervescent. Brett notes have a mild funk that mingles nicely with the peach that remains. A nice treat!
- Greg C. is drinking an Ebb & Flow by Muskoka Brewery at King & DufferinIt has a nice tart citrus character - notably lime - and is clean & refreshing on the palate. The finish is a bit wan & watery, though.
- Greg C. is drinking a Hazy Little Thing by Sierra Nevada Brewing Co. at King & DufferinRight on the mark for the style - hazy appearance, soft on the palate, aroma & flavour of tropical fruit & sweet citrus. Quite nice.
- Greg C. is drinking a Toute Est Dans Toute by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinNot the most complex or experimental beer either of the breweries have made, but a nice rustic saison with a slightly fruity funkiness.
