“We’re thrilled with the results of this year’s Ontario Brewing Awards” said Ian Gourlay, partner at the brewery “Winning four awards in a very competitive provincial brewing competition is no easy feat, so we could not be more proud of our talented team of brewers who continue to brew great, award winning beers.”
Kingsville Brewery took home the bronze in the ‘Wood Beer’ category for its Barrel Aged Stout. While Sons of Kent won gold in the same category for its Mammoth beer.
The Grove Brewing Company also won bronze in the Dark British Beer category for its Clubhouse Oatmeal Stout.
