We’ll always travel for good food and drink, but luckily, we don’t have to head too far outside of the city to find delicious beer. Just under two hours from Toronto, in the town of Creemore, Ontario, you’ll discover some of the best brews in the province at Creemore Springs Brewery — and they’re available at the LCBO and The Beer Store, too.
37 years ago, craft breweries were the exception, not the norm. When John Wiggins set up a brewery in a repurposed hardware shop and named it after the town, he was ahead of his time. In a lot of ways, with an above-and-beyond commitment to sustainability, Creemore Springs remains a trendsetter today.
As the years passed, Creemore Springs established itself as a gem of Canadian brewing. Its delicious premium craft lager has become synonymous with the community where it’s made: Creemore, Ontario.
Near the picturesque Niagara Escarpment and only a short detour from Collingwood or Barrie, Creemore is a stunning road trip destination. It's a charming place full of independent restaurants, friendly people and a bustling Main Street you could spend a whole day browsing. Creemore Springs calls this wonderful place home, and happily embraces their humble beginnings with the slogan “Small town, big heart.” Locally brewed and with a deep affection for their hometown, Creemore is backed by decades of tradition.
That respect for their roots yields delicious results and a taste of place in their beer that’s impossible to replicate. Creemore Springs Brewery uses local spring water, along with other premium ingredients, and fire-brews their tasty beverages in a copper kettle. You can taste the difference in every can.
Immediately recognizable by their iconic designs, Creemore Springs brews a family of beers that range from crisp pilsners to hoppy IPAs. Not to mention a delicious collection of seasonals, including a Belgian witbier and lavender sour. Creemore’s unique Premium Lager is a fan-favourite; boasting a brilliant amber colour, with overtones of malty caramel and a deliciously balanced hop character, it's been an Ontarian staple for over 35 years. There are different styles for any taste — you can’t go wrong with a Creemore Springs beer.
This premium craft brewery upholds its commitment to its community and the environment. From their innovative, eco-friendly packaging, to their commitment to reduce water consumption by 1 million litres year-over-year, Creemore Springs Brewery understands the importance of stewardship of our planet.
Every Creemore Springs event is proudly plastic-free, too, including the upcoming Copper Kettle Festival. Now in its 23rd year, the annual event celebrates the town and its history while bringing the vibrant community together. Taking place on August 24, this year it will feature a classic car show, tons of talented local makers, live music and plenty of delicious Creemore beer. Mark your calendars, and don’t miss it.
