Bellwoods Brewery (@bellwoodsbeer) is a microbrewery that opened mid last year. Located, on the Ossington Strip, Bellwoods is a venue that pretty much focuses on experimenting flavourful beers along with some tapas style dishes to compliment the drinks.
A bunch of us girls met up for dinner to check out the brewery!
The restaurant is literally situated in a garage type building. The “garage door” closes towards evening when it gets a bit chilly.
We waited upstairs for the rest of the party to arrive and got a fabulous view of the brewery from above.
{Left} Witchshark IIPA (9% APV, 8.5) – which is their strongest beer
{Right} Farmhouse Saison (6% APV, 7.5) – which is considered to be “sweeter” beer
We literally ordered one of everything on the menu, below are the snacks that were shared amongst all of us:
Pig Heart ($4.00)
- Serrano hot sauce
Wheat Kernels ($9.00)
- hen of the woods, chickweed
Potato ($3.00)
- warm anchovy mayo
Lamb Tongue ($4.00)
- walnut, raisin
Raw Beef & Sour Vegetables ($10.00)
Crispy Pork ($9.00)
- pea shoots, rehydrated peanuts, mustard sauce
Cucumber ($3.00)
- paprika, garlic
Duck ($15.00)
- – hop shoots, beet
The girls including myself thought the extensive drink list were excellent, food was alright but left the restaurant a bit unsatisfied. We visited Bellwoods Brewery with an expectation of a full meal but then soon realized this relaxing eatery was a place to simply grab a few snacks with drinks after work. I will keep this place in mind when I’m in a tapas mood!
