Half Hours on Earth, a small batch brewery located<br />
in Seaforth, was recently named the number one<br />
new brewery in Ontario by <strong>The</strong> Ontario Craft Beer<br />
Guide. www.halfhoursonearth.com<br />
Cowbell Brewing Company in Blyth has opened<br />
to acclaim. <strong>The</strong> destination craft brewery with<br />
a state-of-the-art brewing facility and farm-totable<br />
inspired restaurant is anticipated to be a key<br />
attraction and economic driver in the region. 2018<br />
plans include a working farm, complete with barley,<br />
hops, an orchard and an accessible vegetable<br />
garden for the restaurant. Future plans include a<br />
natural outdoor amphitheatre (with a capacity for<br />
15,000) to host music, culture and athletic events.<br />
<strong>The</strong> bar has 30 taps, including 25 Cowbell beers and<br />
one rotating tap dedicated to other Huron County<br />
brewers. Chef Alexandre Lussier sources products<br />
that are mostly inspired by the local terroir.<br />
Suppliers include Metzger Meats, Little Sisters<br />
Chicken and Burdan’s Red Cat Farm & Bakery.<br />
This is also both the world’s first carbon neutral<br />
brewery and the world’s first “closed loop” brewery.<br />

the brewing water from an on-site well, and the<br />
used water is then returned to the ground through
