TORONTO, ON – Import agency Beerthirst has announced the launch of its Ontario division with the release of several brands from San Diego’s Modern Times Beer.
Modern Times was founded in 2013 by former Stone Brewing employee Jacob McKean, and has a “focus (non-monogamously) on aroma-driven, complex, flavorful, sessionish beers.”
Three Modern Times products – Fortunate Islands Pale Ale (5% abv, 46 IBU), Black House Oatmeal Coffee Stout (5.8% abv, 40 IBU), and Fruitlands Gose (4.8% abv, 17 IBU) – started rolling out last month, and are now available in 473 ml cans at LCBO locations throughout Ontario.

- Greg C. is drinking a Bourbon Barrel Aged Dark Saison by Mascot Brewery at King & DufferinPromising aroma with notes of spice, dark fruit, oak & vanilla. Flavour starts in the same direction but lacks depth and finishes light.
- Greg C. is drinking a Trappist Holiday Ale by Spencer Brewery at King & Dufferin1+ year old bottle. Aroma of port and spice, notes that follow in the flavour plus cherry & menthol. Some booze heat despite the age. Nice.
- Greg C. is drinking an Oude Geuze (Vieille) by Brouwerij Oud Beersel at King & DufferinNot as lip-puckeringly sour or mind-bendingly complex as some lambics, but still an old fave that I always enjoy.
- Greg C. is drinking a No Love Lost Sour Cherry Saison by Mascot Brewery at King & DufferinDelivers what the name promises - a rather good Saison laced with sour cherry that is unmistakably present but not overpowering.
- Greg C. is drinking a Coffee Oatmeal Stout by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinSurprisingly good for a 20-month-old bottle. Coffee is still nice & punchy, good notes of chocolate, oats & nuts in the background.
