Lake of the Woods Brewing Company has brewery locations Ontario, Manitoba, both of which touch the shores of Lake of the Woods. This is where we work and play…. it’s our backyard… and we are proud to be able to bring beer to everyone that has a connection to the place we call home.
KENORA ONTARIO LOCATION
Our Flagship Brewery
Located in a 109 year old firehall, the Kenora brewery opened its doors in the summer of 2013. Our 10Hl copper kettle brewery was made by Kaspar Schulz (Germany). Kaspar Shulz has been manufacturing brewhouses for over 335 years and are the world’s oldest brewery plant manufacturer. We are proud to brew our beer on this amazing, German engineered 2 kettle system.
The Kenora brewing facility is adjacent to the taproom and was retrofitted to fit in our 109 year old fire hall location. The brewery and taproom is considered one of Ontario’s coolest and is a designated Ontario Heritage building. The brewery, taproom and retail store are all housed in the building and it is a must-see if you are visiting Kenora.
Located in Hargrave St. Market next to Canada Life Centre.
The Hargrave St. Market location is located in True North Square Downtown Winnipeg. This showcase brewery is the centrepiece of the locally inspired food hall. The glass walls allow you to watch our brewers in action while you enjoy a pint and a bite to eat from a hand-picked selection of some of Winnipeg’s best restaurants. The brewery spans 3 floors of the 17 storey office tower with the mill room on level 3, the brewery on level 2 and the retail store & taproom on level 1.
Located in Hargrave St. Market next to Canada Life Centre.
The Winnipeg brewery opened its doors in early 2020 along with Hargrave St. Market. Winnipeg’s longest bar (Rose Bar) surrounds the brewery and offers a selection of our beer on-tap, wine and cocktails. For a more intimate Lake of the Woods experience, visit our taproom and retail store just downstairs with an entrance and patio on Carlton Street.
