Bellwoods Brewery
On Dec 17, 2016 we opened our second brewery and bottle shop at 20 Hafis Rd., southeast of Lawrence and Keele. The Hafis Rd brewery is all about big shiny tanks, a vastly expanded barrel aging program, and the best bottling machine we could have hoped for. Come stock up on your favourites in the adjoining bottle shop and enjoy a pint while you shop.
