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
