Ontario boasts a potent mix of brewing traditions. Wherever
Europeans explored, battled, and settled, beer was not far behind,
which brought the simple magic of brewing to Ontario in the 1670s.
Early Hudson's Bay Company traders brewed in Canada's Arctic, and
Loyalist refugees brought the craft north in the 1780s. Early 1900s
temperance activists drove the industry largely underground but
couldn't dry up the quest to quench Ontarians' thirst. The heavy
regulation that replaced prohibition centralized surviving
breweries. Today, independent breweries are booming and writing
their own chapters in the Ontario beer story.
