Flavoured Fruit & Vegetable– Canada: Silver Medal, All Eyes on Yuzu
English Style IPA – Country Winner, Hazed & Confused
This Moonlight Kettle graduate made its first appearance in the 2016 lineup. This Juicy IPA has proven to be a Muskoka fan favourite with its hazy appearance and hypnotic character bursting with fruity hop aroma, followed by a juicy citrus kick. We have a good feelin’ this brew isn’t going anywhere. Be sure to pick some up or visit us in the Tap Room to see what all the buzz is about.
Experimental – Canada: Silver Medal, Ebb & Flow
This new brew has gained attention as a game-changer at 2.4% ABV while not skimping on the flavour. Ebb & Flow is our nod to our shimmering Muskoka lakes and endless shorelines, this session sour is a natural for those long, lazy days. Citrusy and tart upfront, it’s an easy-drinking quencher offering a light-bodied finish. Sound like something you might be interested in?

Flavoured Fruit & Vegetable – Canada: Bronze Medal, Summerweiss Tropical Wheat
With the addition of passion fruit and mango, things get twice as nice with Summmerweiss Tropical Wheat. This brew was an experimental twist on Muskoka’s original seasonal creation, Summerweiss Hefeweizen. Crafted with visions of summer in mind, Canada has been singing its praises as a deliciously fruity and refreshing beer. A bronze medal for a vibrant and hazy brew. Tie up the summer with another limited release.
Session IPA – Canada: Silver Medal, Detour
Give it up for our most popular brew! We’re proud of our Detour for being the first Session IPA to hit Ontario back in 2014. This dry-hopped brew is truly sessionable, with a rewarding tropical aroma, big hop flavours, and a clean finish. The result is a perfect balance of big flavours, with lower alcohol, so you can enjoy taking a detour all day long.
Flavoured Fruit & Vegetable– Canada: Silver Medal, All Eyes on Yuzu
High praise for our Moonlight Kettle Graduate! All Eyes on Yuzu was first brewed in 2018, coming back this year as a summer seasonal. Created with yuzu, a herbaceous and tangy citrus found in Japan and Korea, it’s no wonder why All Eyes On Yuzu. Notes of mildly sweet citrus and tangerine are countered with just the right amount of hoppy bitterness, from an American Pale Ale that’s become a Muskoka summer classic.
