WINNIPEG, MB – The Winnipeg Goldeyes have announced that they will be offering beers from a variety of local breweries in a new Craft Beer Corner at Shaw Park, the stadium where the American Association Baseball team plays its home games.
Currently under construction and set to open in time for the 2018 season, the 1,400-square-foot deck will be accessible to all game attendees, and will feature stand up tables and chairs that provide a view of the entire stadium.
The beer selection in the Corner will feature six taps, two of which will be reserved for beers from the Labatt/AB InBev-owned Mill Street and Goose Island brands, and two for Fort Garry Brewing, which has had a partnership with the Goldeyes for more than a decade and produces the official team beer, Angry Fish Pilsner.
The remaining pair of taps will rotate through five other local breweries throughout the season, with the following planned schedule:
One Great City Brewing – May 25th-31st, June 8th-10th
Little Brown Jug Brewing – June 11th-13th, June 18th-20th, June 25th-28th
Barn Hammer Brewing – June 29th-30th & July 1st, July 9th-15th
Torque Brewing – July 24th-29th, August 3rd-6th
Farmery Estate Brewery – August 7th-8th, August 17th-19th, August 27th-31st

- Greg C. is drinking a Not A Word Spoken - Apricot IPA by Wellington Brewery at King & DufferinExactly what I expect from a hazy IPA made with Simcoe & Citra hops and laced with apricot - i.e. big, bright, juicy, aromatic.
- Greg C. is drinking a Stout by Big Drop Brewing Co at King & DufferinThe low abv is betrayed somewhat by the light body, but the flavour is that of a proper pub stout - cocoa, coffee, slight smoky tang. Nice!
- Greg C. is drinking a Vintage Ale (2016) by Fuller, Smith & Turner at King & DufferinPort & plum preserves up front, touch of leather, good balance through the middle, bit warm in the finish.
- Greg C. is drinking an Ikinuki Ungespundetes Kellerbier by Godspeed Brewery at Bar Hop BrewcoGood lager with strong malt base but heavy hit of hops as well. Good body, full but not heavy. A pleasure to drink.
- Greg C. is drinking an After Hours: Raspberry Sour by PEI Brewing Company (Gahan) at King & DufferinSurprised to find this treat from my home province at the LCBO. Very good raspberry sour with natural tasting tart berry flavour.
