It’s been quite a ride since we started the Brewery Market last May. We hosted 15 events at the Wychwood Barns, sampling dozens of delicious Ontario craft beers and raising over $30,000 to help The Stop Community Food Centre. But now it’s time for a change.
Unfortunately we won’t be hosting Brewery Market events at The Stop’s Green Barn this summer. Instead, the beer series that we started will be continuing on in a new form, as The Stop’s Beer Garden. We’re glad to see that beer is going to continue flowing at the Barns on Sundays this summer. However, we are not involved in it this time around and we wish them the best.
Luckily for all the craft beer fans in Toronto, the Brewery Market is not going away and we’re going to be doing some exciting new things this year. Firstly, we are thrilled to announce that we have created a new spin-off series called the Brewer’s Backyard, to be held at the Evergreen Brick Works this summer. The Brewer’s Backyard, similar to the Brewery Market, will feature different Ontario craft breweries, unique food and one-off beers in the gorgeous setting of Koerner Gardens within the Brick Works. You can find out more about this series at its own website here.
But that’s not all. The Brewery Market will rise again this year, but in new and different locations in Ontario. We are in the midst of looking at interesting spots in Toronto (and around the province) to hold unique Brewery Market events. Stay tuned for more details, but if you represent or know of a location that would make for a great Brewery Market, please email us.
We sincerely thank you for your enthusiasm and support at the Brewery Market this past year. We hope to see you at the Brewer’s Backyard and other Brewery Market events this summer and beyond. Keep our website bookmarked and follow us on Twitter for the latest news.
