    Unlike most beers, there is no barley in Gold Rush. The grain bill largely consists of oat and wheat to create a full bodied beer with a silky mouthfeel and a touch of tang. We generously dry hopped this beer with some of our favourite hops, including Nelson Sauvin, Motueka, and the golden one itself, El Dorado. This combination creates a tropical, zesty, juicy brew as flavours of white wine, gooseberry, lime, pineapple and pear come together with another IPA buzzword, Foggy London, for our juiciest IPA to date.

    Jungle King is a golden, citrusy, dry hopped pale ale. This beer has a biscuity and bready malt profile before sneaking up on you with complex hop notes of grapefruit, tangerine, stone fruit, and cedar.

    Vertigo is crazy juicy, extraordinarily aromatic, dazzlingly bright and incredibly smooth, while weighing in at 8%. Vertigo tastes like adult five alive thanks to Lemondrop, Cashmere & Mosaic hops, which bring out notes of lemon, lime, peach, and tangerine.

    there’s a touch of sweet, sour & salt all wrapped up into one delicious package. We added blackberry to our brew to compliment the malt and hop profiles, resulting in a refreshing & pretty beer.

    This beer is light, crisp, and refreshing. It has a late hop surge of Citra & Lemondrop, which taste a lot like they sound. They're full of citrus notes, including grapefruit, lime, and lemon, and give the brew a tropical bitterness. Lemondrop also has a touch of sweetness, almost like lemon meringue pie.

    We love the tart, almost raspberry like flavour of haskaps and decided that it was time for another haskap ale. We added litres of local haskap juice to the boil to create a refreshing, juicy, and fun mild sour.
    Inaugural Batch: Tuesday, April 27, 2021

    I thought that stronghold actually had amazing beer. Everything we tried was very smooth and tasty. The only thing I can say is that I would love to have food with my beer. I know it's not always possible but thats just what I think. Amazing beer, keep it up.

    Stronghold is an excellent microbrewery with a good-size seating area. They have live music from time to time as well.

    Made a pitstop during a road trip to check out Stronghold. Walking in to the historic building, I was thrilled to see the elements of historical design. Ornate wood features, and a period piece bar perfectly matched the building exterior. I picked up some flights to check out their range. Overall, I'd say their beer is good. Not the best beer I've ever had, and the flavours are more traditional (deep, malty, earthy) instead of the newer trend of breweries leaning towards ultra fruity/tropical etc. The best part of the visit was the extremely large and cute outdoor patio. It was a great place to gather for a few beverages. I would definitely frequent this place if it were in my back yard.
