TORONTO, ON – Just over a year after launching its first beer on draught at establishments in its namesake Toronto neighbourhood, Beaches Brewing has announced that one of its brands is now available for retail purchase.
A-Bay Pale Ale (4.5% abv, 28 IBU) is named after Ashbridges Bay, and is described as “a malt & wheat based pale ale that [is] crisp and not too bitter.” It’s available now in 473 ml cans at select LCBO locations.
Founded by Carl Pratt, Beaches Brewing is a contract brewer with its beer currently being produced at Second Wedge Brewing in Uxbridge.

- Greg C. is drinking a Saturday Night Lumberjack by Barn Hammer Brewing Company at King & DufferinDarker & maltier than most modern DIPAs, but still plenty bitter as well. Brings to mind Arrogant Bastard, but a bit lighter on the palate.
- Greg C. is drinking a 191 Mӓrzen - Across the Nation by Red Racer at King & DufferinProperly malty with notes of breadcrust and caramel, herbal hops to balance. About 9 months from canning but it held up surprisingly well.
- Greg C. is drinking a Three Ring Circus by Block Three Brewing Co. at King & Dufferin3+ years old & showing its age so forgoing a rating to be fair. Seems like there’s probably a good beer behind the oxidization, though.
- Greg C. is drinking an Imagination Experiment Root Beer Stout by Dominion City Brewing Co. at Bar Hop BrewcoAroma & flavour are all about the root beer. Which is just fine for a root beer fanatic like me. Might be a bit much for others.
- Greg C. is drinking a Leave No Trace Pale Ale by Dominion City Brewing Co. at Bar Hop BrewcoHazy straw yellow. Light bodied, grainy character with top notes of citrus peel & green hop. “Crushable” I suppose but not much beyond that.
