STONES THROW is back in stock. At 5.8% and 40 IBU, this IPA leans east coast using Vermont yeast, with oats and wheat additions to give it a velvety mouth feel. Of course big dry hop additions of our favourite Ontario hops (because we grow them ourselves) cascade and nugget! Come on by for some sipping and shopping in our outdoor cabin.

Together we have accumulated 736 lbs of food for @orangevillefoodbank this past weekend - thank you everyone for your community spirit and generosity.

You are amazing - thank you all for your positive energy. You rock!

Howdy Folks! Do you know our buddy and newest team

Howdy Folks! Do you know our buddy and newest teammate, Luke Dupre? Luke has been a great friend to GoodLot since our inception, and has recently joined our team full time to help with the operation of our little farm and brewery, primarily in the fulfilment of our beer orders and supporting our partners in any way he can. He’s a multifaceted guy (we’ve yet to discover what he can’t do), but he identifies as a former artist & anthropologist. He is a passionate rock climber (think big walls in Yosemite, climbing with the likes of the late Dean Potter) and a forever adventurer! You will usually find him working local crags on his days off. Welcome to the team, Luke. We are beyond lucky to have you here 🍻

No secret, we love Nugget hops. It was an original genome we planted here in 2011, and continue to grow today. The flowers are small, but well worth the effort. This #onhops is the inspiration for #farmsteadale & #stonesthrow !
From Hopslist.com: Nugget’s super alpha acid content, low beta and low cohumulone percentages give it an excellent bittering kick popular in IPAs, Imperials and other super hoppy brews. It’s high myrcene content also results in a green, herbal aroma. Daughter of Brewer’s Gold and mother of Millennium, Nugget’s popularity has grown quickly. Released in 1983, by 1987 it was producing 14% of the Pacific Northwest’s hops.

As the world gathers in Glasgow for the 26th Confe

As the world gathers in Glasgow for the 26th Conference of Parties (COP26) working towards how to prevent runaway climate catastrophe, ask yourself this: shouldn’t every business have to account for their climate impact and figure out how to mitigate any negative impacts on the planet, in order to even practice business in the 21st century? That’s why we installed 20kW of solar pv, had our brewing equipment specially designed to reuse the “waste” steam and convert it into energy, and had our barn re-designed to passive-haus standards to operate as efficiently and responsibly as possible. Plus we choose our suppliers and materials from the highest environmental standards available. Every action we all take is either part of the problem or part of the solution. We have a few more actions to take (CO2 recapture from the brewing process, electric vehicles), but we are well on our way to declare GoodLot to be climate positive / carbon negative, all to be achieved right here on the farm without outsourcing our carbon offsets! We can all do this, together!

Big part of our organic and regenerative hop farmi

Big part of our organic and regenerative hop farming practice involves a spring and fall addition of composted chicken manure. This provides a number of benefits, chiefly increased nitrogen levels, of which hops are voracious consumers. Big thanks for our friend and neighbour (and sometimes brewing grain supplier) @johnleenderscreates for bringing the good shit!

Look who’s back - Philsner the Pilsner! 5.2% and 32 lovely Hallertau IBUs from our friends Laurie and John Craig at Clear Valley Hops in Nottawa. Crisp and dry, this true German pils follows through with a nice bitterness after two months fermenting in tank. Prost!
