Brewery Description:
The Brewery occupies the old Galt Knife foundery on Anslie St. Galt. The former foundry has a linear layout with plenty of windows which is proving to be ideal for the new business. At one end of the building, a retail outlet and tasting room are being planned. The tasting room has large windows filling the east and west walls, and the roof is supported by thick, square wooden posts while overhead rests the large wooden rollers that once powered the plant's machinery.
In the centre of the building Brewer Rob Creighton is busy setting up the production facilities that will be the heart of the new brewery. Creighton has been a brewer for the last 30 years, starting with Labbatt and then moving on to help establish a series of smaller breweries across Ontario including Upper Canada, Algonquin, Sleemans, and Formosa.
