TORONTO, ON – Henderson Brewing has announced the release of a new beer with a name that pays tribute to a historic namesake brewery.
Duchess and Caroline Imperial Porter (10% abv) is named after the intersection – now Richmond and Sherbourne – where Robert Henderson built the first brewery in the town of York in 1804.
The beer has been aged in Heaven Hill bourbon barrels, and is described as being “big, with notes of toffee, and coffee, and roasty sweetness.”
Duchess and Caroline is available now on tap and in bottles at Henderson while supplies last.

- Greg C. is drinking a Breaking Point by Kensington Brewing Company at King & DufferinTicks all the boxes for the style - hazy, hoppy, juicy, full & soft on the palate. Hides the 8.5% very well. Nice stuff.
- Greg C. is drinking a Candle Burner by Wellington Brewery at King & DufferinI’m usually not a fan of coffee IPAs - the combo rarely works for me - but this hits the right balance with coffee that’s fruity not roasty.
- Greg C. is drinking a The Ugly by Henderson Brewing Co at King & DufferinDark & sweet Belgian ales aren’t usually my bag but this is a pretty good one. Notes of coffee, cocoa, dark cherry, bit of peppery yeast.
- Greg C. is drinking a Convergence w/ Strawberry, Rhubarb, Raspberry by Kensington Brewing Company at King & DufferinStrawberry is there, raspberry and rhubarb less so. Base beer isn’t overly sour but still a nice tartness. Mellow but enjoyable.
- Greg C. is drinking a Hefeweizen by Northern Maverick Brewing at King & DufferinStill “notes of banana candy, bubblegum, hints of clove & lemon” as I wrote last time. But seems even better than before. Fantastic hefe!
