Mr. Insurance Man,<br />

Toboggan Brewing Co.,<br />

London. Richmond Row’s<br />

“brewery beneath the floor”<br />

widely-distributed<br />

blonde with a distinctly<br />

London moniker. Mr.<br />

Insurance Man is a reference to the city’s<br />

insurance industry and the label features<br />

the historic London Life headquarters. <strong>The</strong><br />

beer itself is mild, well crafted to provide<br />

Short Pier Long Walk, Refined Fool<br />

Brewing Co., Sarnia. Downtown Sarnia’s<br />

popular craft brewery has a handful of beers<br />

on LCBO shelves, most notably<br />

Short Pier Long Walk Double<br />

IPA. Sure, double IPAs often<br />

need to be chased with a<br />

glass of water, but the taste<br />

adventure is a key part of<br />

your craft beer odyssey. Tackle<br />

this if you’re done with cream<br />

ales, ambers, and blondes. refinedfool.com<br />

Timber Beast Brown Ale, Upper<br />

Thames Brewing Co., Woodstock. Englishstyle,<br />

craft brewed brown ales might be the<br />

up-and-coming thing as everyone<br />

maxes out on hoppy IPAs. Upper<br />

Thames has a great one with<br />

Timber Beast, brewed with<br />

local malt from Harvest Hop<br />

and Malt in Puslinch near<br />

Guelph. Pleasant to drink, it’s<br />

the antithesis of the plethora<br />

of hop-forward IPAs and as such<br />

serves duty as an ideal gateway beer for those<br />

just beginning to explore the craft world.<br />

Yalla Yalla, Half Hours on Earth<br />

Brewery, Seaforth. <strong>The</strong> easiest places to try<br />

the highly-regarded beers from Half Hours on<br />

Earth are at craft-friendly pubs such as Milos’<br />

Craft Beer Emporium<br />

in London, or Mercer<br />

Hall in Stratford.<br />

Otherwise, order<br />

them straight from<br />

the brewery. Yalla Yalla is the place to<br />

start. It’s a series of refreshing sour beers
