Canada, ON: Steel Wheel Brewery opens its doors in southwestern Ontario

A new farm-based brewery in Brant, a municipality in southwestern Ontario, has announced that it is now open, Canadian Beer News reported on June 4.

Steel Wheel Brewery has been founded by Harold Kuret and Cindy Blair, and is situated in a circa-1890s farmhouse on the farm they have owned since 2005, with hops being grown there since 2015.

The brewery had a soft opening on June 1 before officially launching on June 2. Beers available in bottles and on draught in the taproom and store include a Pale Ale (4.2% abv), East Coast IPA (6.3% abv), and Stout (5.1% abv). Two limited variants of the latter – flavoured with cold brew coffee and chai – were also on tap on the weekend.
