Sham-Bock—Seasonal (February/March only!)

A German beer for an Irish holiday!

Notes of dark fruits raisins and figs, molasses and dark maple syrup.  Plum and toffee are foremost with a hint of chocolate. True to the Doppelbock style, Shambock is a little sweet, higher alcohol (6.8% ABV) with a minimal hop profile.  Like a good lager, Shambock is very drinkable, impeccably clean and crisp in finish.   Pours a creamy mocha head, which is dense in texture with a little lacing.

6.8 % alcohol by volume, IBU's 22.9

Iron Spike - Amber

A deep garnet, this ale pours a frothy beige cap. In the nose, deeply rooted dark fruits give way to a perfume, bubblegum, banana, and some yeasty esters.  Lots of toasty notes with dark bread, caramel malts.

Flavour profile initially is sweet with dark fruit and caramel. This leads to toasty spicy flavours with a hint of smoke and fall fruits.  The hops come through to balance the sweetness perfectly.  Very nice dense head with good lacing and retention.

This is a full bodied amber ale with a nice balance of creamy grainy fruitiness, and sharp hops bitterness.

Iron Spike - Copper

A decidedly rusty copper, pours a thick and frothy cream coloured head.  In the nose, caramel malts meet toasty spices. Notes of chestnut here with a nice fruity component leaning towards plum.

Tastes of sweet caramel, some butterscotch. A good level of biscuit graininess follows with fruit, some vanilla/rye/spices. Nice hop bite comes mid-palate and lasts.

Medium/Full body, creamy with marked lasting fruity and a lingering hoppy aftertaste.

Iron Spike - Blonde

Iron Spike Blonde introduces itself with an antique gold colour accentuated with a generous white foam.  Nose of honey, spicy, lemon zest and citric hops, some biscuit malt, a nice peach/tropical fruit profile as well.

On the pallet the beer enters with a hint of sweet fruit upfront (peach, pear mostly), followed by lemon, some mild hops, and sweet grains. It has a floral aftertaste, similar to that of rose petals.  Lots of pretty spider web lace left behind from the head, and good retention.

Medium body with a sweet fruit finish, nicely balanced by moderate thoughtful hopping."

Dead Elephant Ale

A full bodied golden Pale Ale which pours with a linen white medium density head leaving spider web lace on the glass.

On the palate the flavour is sweet fruity malts up front (apricot, mango) with a bit of candy, and slight grassy notes which fall away to reveal a hint of biscuit with rather pleasant grapefruit and perfume undertones. 

This is a hop bomb, there is no doubt.  To the nose there is a mild malt aroma which accentuates the robust floral bouquet which is derived from the hops.

Medium full bodied ale with pleasant lingering hop finish.

Honey Elixir

This Silver Medal Award winning beer was first brewed in 2012. Released through the LCBO in time for the busy holiday Season, it has become a favorite among many.

Brewed featuring local honey harvested from the  hives located at Windermere Manor at the University of Western Ontario and from the grounds at the prestigious London Hunt Club.
