There's No Beer Like This Beer, Anywhere but Here.
Ashdale Honey Brown
Another of Meander River’s Signature Ales, our Honey Brown is special, showcasing estate produced honey. Buckwheat to walnut in colour with a light mocha foam, this beer is exactly that on the nose. Honey, molasses, with a mild mocha aroma; milk chocolate, vanilla and fresh roasted coffee. A buzzing note of cola on the nose is repeated on the palate alongside the sweetness of farm fresh honey, balanced with dark, dried fruits and again, a slight roasted coffee impact. Finishing smooth with low bitterness and a silky, enjoyably cloying finish.
5.2% ABV.
Homegrown Wet-Hopped Ale
Brewed with 100% fresh, estate hops, like Galena and Newport, this Ale has a dense head and hazy appearance giving off fresh, earthy, zesty and wild berry aromas. Dry mouthfeel and a crisp finish allow this beer to be medium bitterness while showcasing pleasant grassy notes. Changes every year with each hops season.
4.5% ABV.
Lunch Box Pale Ale
As one of Meander River’s Signature Brews, Lunch Box Pale Ale is an American Pale Ale in style and clear, amber colour appearance. Widely appealing aromas of caramel, lightly toasted brown bread, and fresh pine bring you to a familiar and comforting place. An earthy palate with pine and ripe citrus balanced with caramel and crusty bread sweetness provide medium body, with moderate bitterness and finish.
6.5% ABV.
Smoky Chipotle Porter
Bronze - Canadian Brewing Awards - Experimental - 2018
Smoky, chocolatey, fresh dark roast coffee are the intense aromas coming off of Meander River’s award winning Smoky Chipotle Porter. To the eye, the beer is clear and dark chocolate in colour with dense, mocha brown foam. This robust palate is smooth and silky, with notes of dark chocolate, bitter roasted coffee, and a warming chipotle heat that builds with each sip. The finish is long and cozy.
7.2% ABV.
Cold Porridge
This Stout with whole oat mash gives off an earthy, roasted malt and chocolate baked goods aromatic profile. Experience fresh ground coffee, roasting beans from craft roasters. Full, drying mouthfeel and fermented cacao, dark chocolate stout brownie cake, espresso palate. Pleasant coating texture finish. Enjoy for breakfast or meal replacement.
5.5% ABV.
Seeing Double IPA
Not your typical dry DIPA, Seeing Double is a perfect balance of bitterness and sweetness. This beer is brewed with 100% Citra hops. On the nose, citrus and tropical fruits rally your senses, and are then doubled up on the palate with an added balancing sweetness and bitterness to keep this beer straight. Although the higher alcohol, Seeing Double is smooth and easy going, with moderate to high impact, just like you after a couple.
8.0% ABV.
Surf & Turf Scotch Ale
Silver - Atlantic Canadian Beer Awards - Experimental - 2015
From the ocean to the earth, this Scotch ale brings those elements into a great beverage to be enjoyed in either of those places. Surf & Turf is brewed with peat smoked malt and fresh Atlantic Ocean seaweed. The burgundy to mahogany colour, gives off dense toffee and caramel aromatics, with light smokiness. Instead of a mouthful of salt water, this brew balances toffee and caramel flavours with a slight viscosity from the very mild salinity, all with a hint of a distant peat fire. Pleasant and silky on the palate, this brew finishes moderately with low impact.
6.2% ABV.
Plough Man’s Pilsner
Another annual take on a “big brewer” style, but made right here, with love, in our little brewery. Mild soda cracker nose, with light zesty hops, specifically New Zealand Pacific Gem. Clean and dry palate, with refreshing carbonation. Simple. Delicious. Light. Meant to be enjoyed alongside a spread of fresh, local foods, like a Ploughman's Lunch. Local farmer pairings could include: Ciro's cheese, MacDougall Meadows eggs, Bread Gallery breads, Good Clean Farm fresh greens, and Valley Honey Crisp apples.
5.5% ABV.
Lazy Dazy Wheat Ale
This is a refreshing summer sipping Wheat Beer. With billowing foam and hazy, pale golden hue this beer invites you to your first sniff. Cereal, Wheaties, slightly under-ripe banana, and fresh citrus on the nose lead you to the light bodied, juicy grapefruit beer with high, sparkling carbonation. The brew is almost creamy on the palate, finishing dry and refreshing, craving another sip and a cool dip in the river. Made fresh grapefruit and dry-hopped with Citra hops.
4.5% ABV.
