269/917) Monk's Kettle, Etobicoke: Shadowplay by Wellington County Brewery of Ontario: *1/2; a black lager; malty & rich at start (like a stout in appearance also) with a mild hop bite at finish;
270/918) Monk's Kettle, Etobicoke: Mosaic IPA by Cheshire Valley of Ontario: **; gingery, floral nose; strong floral notes;
Readers will recall a similarly named IPA from Great Lakes Brewery. They are distinct beers, named for the variety of hop being utilised. The Cheshire Valley version is a collaboration with an individual from Toronto Brewing, a home brewing supplies store.
I have to say, the service at the Monk's Kettle is very good. They are genuine beer lovers there.
