3.8 on Untappd.This dry-hopped, East coast style IPA is our brewmaster's favourite. It's a perfectly balanced combination of lighter American malts and hop varieties. The addition of flaked oats and golden naked oats creates a pillowy mouthfeel and light bready taste to balance the tropical fruit finish of El Dorado hops. If you want something to reset your day, drink this delightful, totally sessionable hazy.Inaugural Batch: Friday, May 19, 2023 -
3.7 on Untappd.Think you don't like brown ale? Try this one. The pale chocolate and Maris Otter malts make it chocolatey, but not overpowering. The sulphate-heavy water chemistry makes it smooth, creamy, and totally balanced. The Fuggle hops creates just a graceful hint of earthy bitterness and no lingering aftertaste. You've never had a brown ale more drinkable than the Born Ready.Inaugural Batch: Friday, May 19, 2023 -
3.5 on Untappd.An archetypal Irish Red Ale, similar to the one that got my wife through her college years. We use classically British ingredients, such as Fuggle hops, light crystal malt, and roasted barley to create a balanced, refreshing, and good for any season beer. Light shines through the translucent dark-amber colour like stained glass. That quintessential almost-fruity “red” taste is quick off the palate, so you won’t be weighed down by a pint or two.Inaugural Batch: Friday, May 19, 2023 -
3.7 on Untappd.Designed from the classic British style, this gold-coloured, moderately hopped, faintly citrusy beer is a crowd-pleasing, anytime beer. Each flavour is faint, yet deliberate, creating a fascinating and gratifying beer ensemble. One pint will easily turn into another.Inaugural Batch: Saturday, May 20, 2023 -
3.6 on Untappd.This West-coaster isn’t made to challenge your ability to tolerate the intolerable. It’s just a delicious, complex beer made from cool ingredients. The hoppy finish is a slow burn with an insidious onset that rises to balanced, punchy bitter and tannic sensation on the palette. We had fun making it, and we hope you have fun drinking it.Inaugural Batch: Thursday, May 18, 2023 -
3.5 on Untappd.In the traditional style of Munich Helles, the Take a Lap Lager is our easiest drinking best lawn mowing thirst quenching any time, any day beer. serve it on a patio or by the fire. The combination of old-world malts provides a pleasantly bready start, while maintaining the crisp, refreshing finish of a classic lager. Four weeks of lagering provides the purification required to achieve clarity and crispness in appearance and texture. This is a satisfying way to welcome new palettes into the world of craft beer.Inaugural Batch: Saturday, May 27, 2023

3.6 on Untappd.Want to add some substance to your dear old friend, the lager? We took a classic Czech lager recipe and upgraded the malt to the dark, roasty, toasty pale chocolate and black patent varieties. The medium-bodied mouthfeel is paired with a sweet caramelized taste and that familiar Saaz spice to manufacture a heavy-duty, yet highly drinkable brew. This is the end-of-day, feet-up, indulge-yourself beer you’ve been searching for.Inaugural Batch: Sunday, May 21, 2023 -

3.6 on Untappd.Think you don't like fruity beer? This might be the one that changes your mind. A simple beer backbone with two-row malt and corn to enhance the luscious mouthfeel. The Saaz and Cascade hops express that true beer flavour while adding a refreshing zestiness.

a week agoWe enjoy every visit to Manual Labor Beer Co. I don't think there has ever been a beer here we don't like. Today we tried the winter spiced ale and it's a fabulous beer. Now that there is pizza available in the taproom it's an even better experience in the taproom. I highly recommend buying a ticket for a brewery tour. You'll learn a lot and have a greater appreciation of the brewing process. The staff are always friendly and informative. Keep up the great work and we look forward to seeing what beers come out next.
