You’ll always find beers available from both Tank Ten and Seven Barrel Series, but what is the difference? The answer is very simple, but first, here’s a little history. IN THE BEGINNING… It all started in 2006 with a frankenstiened, not much bigger than your average home-brew setup; enough to fill a Cornelius fermenting vessel (approximately 55L). We put this system together as a way for us to experiment with new styles by creating test batches. By 2009, these batches were becoming consistently successful, so we decided to share these brews with local beer lovers by holding a monthly open-h ..read more

Great Lakes Brewery incorporated on February 12, 1987 and opened their brewery at 155 Clark Blvd in Brampton, Ontario. There were 5 co-founders who named the brewery Great Lakes because they dreamt of opening 5 breweries around the Great Lakes. Between 1987 and 1990, Great Lakes produced only two beers: Unicorn Ale and Great Lakes Lager, using malt extract. Both were packaged in green 1L PET bottles. In 1991, Peter Bulut Sr. purchased the brewery, and immediately set his sights on expansion. The brewery was moved to the present day location in Etobicoke, and began all-grain brewing. Great Lak ..read more

HOW HAVE WE NOT DONE THIS BEFORE? Granite and GLB are two of the oldest craft breweries in Toronto, yet we’ve never done a collaboration before. In late 2022, we decided to rectify that by doing a home-and-home series; a brew day at Granite (an ale), and another at the GLB Brewpub (a lager), resulting in two spectacular batches of beer. Brewers Mary Beth Keefe (Granite) and Mike Lackey (GLB) have been good friends for years, and are also big fans of each other’s brews. Mike is an avid fan of Keefe’s Irish Stout. “Whenever I see it on tap somewhere, that’ll be what I have.”, he said, while sip ..read more
