The Festival is over and the results are in
Another great year. Probably a larger attendance than I can remember. Everyone seemed to have a great time, and there was certainly a great selection of beer to be tasted.
Congratulations to all the brewers!!!
The winners based on “Best Brewery” ballots filled out by attendees:
1st place – Pepperwood
2nd – tie – Nickel Brook & F&M
3rd – tie – Mill Street & Trafalgar
4th – tie – Black Oak & Grand River
Pepperwood Monthly Feature for March – Chipotle Ale – available March 7th
A North American base with some Munich malt provides the base for this festival ale. With a generous amount of chipotle peppers in the fermenter this beer starts off with a mild heat that builds. Never too hot, but definitely an interesting spicy character.
Feature Ontario Craft Brewer Beer
Trafalgar Maple Bock followed by Black Oak’s Cherry Chocolate Stout.
