Canada, ON: Black Bellows Brewing now open in downtown Collingwood

Four years after launching as a contract brewer, and a year after announcing plans for a physical brewpub location, Black Bellows Brewing has announced that it is now open in downtown Collingwood, Ontario, the Canadian Beer News reported on January 20.

Located in a historic building that was erected in the 1860s as a blacksmith shop – providing a fitting connection to the name of the brewery – Black Bellows opened last week with a line-up that ranges from previously available brands such as White Witbier (5% abv), Hops! Belgian IPA (6.3% abv), and Himalaya White IPA (6.3% abv), to brand new beers including Bring The Roses Pilsner (4.6% abv), Shinny Fuel Pale Ale (5.2% abv), and Ballpeen Stout (4% abv).

The brewpub also offers an extensive food menu inspired by street foods from around the world, with dishes including chicken skin chicharron, panang beef curry, Chinatown slaw, and Filipino longanisa corn dogs.

Black Bellows Brewing is located at 40 Simcoe Street in Collingwood, and is open from 11:00 AM to 11:00 PM daily with the exception of Tuesdays.
