ZOMBIE RUM | 7.0% ABV Black Fly Beverage Company London, ON, Canada blackflybooze.com
ISLAND TIME LAGER | 4.3% ABV | 15 IBU Breton Brewing | Sydney, NS, Canada bretonbrewing.ca What happens when two friends who always shared a passion for homebrewing come together? Well after brewing batch after batch in their kitchens, garages, and driveways (of which their neighbours often mistook as lobster), they honed their skills over the years while working in professions, until their entrepreneurial spirit kicked in and the process of several years of dreaming and planning for what would become Breton Brewing Co. in June of 2015 with keg and growler sales. They were welcomed throughout the community of Sydney and Nova Scotia with open arms. A year later, in 2016, Breton launched its cans in the NSLC, and has since expanded to Prince Edward Island and Newfoundland & Labrador. Breton Brewing Co started with just 3 employees and now has grown to an amazing team of 20+ people with 14 different beer offer- ings like their Island Time Lager. Spotlight on Business Magazine was fortunate to speak with Bryan and Andrew the founders of Breton Brewing when we features the company in the February 2019 Issue (https://online.flip - pingbook.com/view/181196/50/) and although the labels on the can have changed, thankfully what comes inside is as clean and refreshing now as it was then and why it has been one of our favorites long before the Ultimate Craft Cooler Project was even an idea and one that we always have on ice. This Munich Helles Lager is brewed with care, to be enjoyed in good time. Savour the bright, malty character of this clean, refreshing beer that regardless of where you drink it that’s you to a happy place of swaying palms and sandy beaches.
Black Fly Beverage Company, Ontario’s first micro-distillery was founded in 2005 by husband & wife Rob Kelly and Cathy Siskind-Kelly after being awarded the first Distillery License granted in Ontario in over 100 years. Like the iconic Canadian insect after which the company is named, Black Fly started small with the determination to fly under the radar and deliver a mighty bite. Since that time, Black Fly has successfully developed and launched a line-up of unique premium spirit beverages that speak to what today’s consumers are looking for; innovative “Not too sweet” quality ready- to-drink beverages. Their vision was to create more natural and less sweet premium spirit beverages using quality ingredients and with your first sip of their, Zombie Rum Mixed Drink you experience the exhilarating taste of blended aged rums and real lime, apricot and pineapple juices that has been lightly sweetened with cane sugar. Forget to put them in the cooler, no problem their non-breakable, resealable bottles with wide mouth open allows lots of room to add ice so you can enjoy right away while the others are on ice in the Ultimate Cooler.
