FREDERICTON, NB – Atlantic Canada Beer Blog reports that a home-based nano-brewery that launched in Fredericton two years ago has ceased operations.
Bogtrotter Craft Brewery was founded in 2016 by Rod Croucher, who brewed on a 120-litre system in his garage and supplied beer to local tap accounts and select ANBL stores.
According to a Facebook post, Croucher has been dealing with health issues recently, which has necessitated the closure of the brewery. No further details have been announced.

- 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.
