Brew on Premise
Q - What are you all about?
A - We are a small craft brewery that brews beer for you to come in and bottle or take it away in a keg.
Q - What kind of beer do you make?
A - Our beers are versions of the retail flavours and we have some of our own original recipes. These recipes can be adapted to your tastes as well.
Q - How long does a batch of beer take to make?
A - The process from start to finish takes 3 weeks.
Q - What kind of bottles do you have or can I use?
A - We have 2 sizes of plastic PET bottle of 500ml or 1L of your choice, you can mix and match sizes as well. We do not carry glass bottles but if you have any with flip tops or glass bottles without threads on the neck, you can use those. We do have a bottle capper and supply you with the bottle caps.
Q - When do I come in to bottle?
A - We have a bottling appointment system on Friday and Saturday's. You are allotted a 1 hour slot so it gives you time to wash, sterilize and you fill your bottles. We also bottle on Tuesday or Wednesday by request.
Q - Do we have to buy bottles every time we come in?
A - No. You purchase the bottles for your first batch and they are yours to reuse for your all your future orders. They will last for years with the proper care.
Q - What do we have to do to look after our bottles?
A - We ask that you rinse them out with water after you consume the beer, leave them to dry and put them back in the case. Please save the caps and bring them back with you. Do not put them back on the bottles , put them in a bag or any container, we clean and reuse them.
Q - How long will my beer last me?
A - We don't use chemicals to kill the yeast so it needs to be kept cold. Refrigerate and treat it like milk and it will last 10 months.
Q - Do you brew half batches as 50 L may be too much.
A - No all our recipes are for 50L and if we brew half batches, we would be brewing 8 days a week.
We recommend sharing the batch with a friend or 2 so it won't be too much.
Q - Do you sell bottles or cans to the public or have a sit down bar we can drink at?
A - No we are not a retail store. What we do is make beer for you to bottle and take home and this is why our prices are more affordable then buying it at the Beer Store.
Q - I have a special occasion I am hosting. Do you have a way to serve my keg of beer?
A - Yes we have what is known as a Jockey Box. It's a portable cooler that you fill with ice and it has 2 taps if you wanted to have a couple of kegs.
Q - I have a keg system but where do I get my CO2 refilled at?
A - We can refill them here for our customers only. We ask that you put the tanks in the freezer for a couple of hours first before coming for a fill up. You get more CO2 in a cold tank. Wrap it in a towel will keep it cold.
Q - Do you sell kegerator's or CO2 tanks?
A - No we do not. We can recommend some web sites or information on where you may purchase them. Keep an eye on Facebook Marketplace or holiday sale time is another route to take.
Q - Do you make gluten free beer?
A - Sorry but we don't make gluten free nor do we make sour beers, sparkling flavoured coolers or alcohol free.
Our Bottles
​
We use 500 ml or 1L plastic PET bottles for your beer. These are a one time purchase which with proper use & care will last for many years.
Bottling
While you are here don't be shy. Most of the Celtic Brews "family" are interested in trying new flavours. Feel free to ask your bottling companion to exchange a bottle or 2 with each other.
Find someone to split a batch with! Check out the emoticon up on the left above the facbook link called Discord. Chat away and see who would like to share a brew.
This is one of our Jockey Boxes, a portable draft system. You fill it with ice and as the beer flows through the coils, it cools the beer.
