Reviews of Manitoulin Brewing Company (Winery)

Roger Brasil

Awesome beer! Nice patio setup. Food available (though I’d say it’s way overpriced).

Matt Zmuda

It is amazing! Small but decent selection of their delicious beer!

Brett Jones

As someone who loves craft beer, I can honestly say Haw Eaters' Brew, Swing Bridge Blonde Ale, and Porter of Prov are hands down my top three favourite beers to date! Every time I visit family in Ontario I'm sure to get my hands on some. My only wish would be that they could ship to Alberta because I'd buy tons!

William Barnes

The Trough for lunch...

Marc Laforest

Holy guacomoly, the food there was crazy good, im in love!!

William Fitzpatrick

Tasty beer. I enjoyed the Lemon Weiss the most.

Lisa Butson

Lovely experience. Read the menu before you order, they are doing a great job to make sure everyone is separated.

E Barnes

Staff was very friendly and helpful. They answered all my questions all the different beers. New patio is really nice, I only had fries but they were super good. I would recommend anyone old or new to the island to step by here

Amy Forslund-Amos

Great burgers - Beer???? good music & company as well.

Ron Kielstra Jr.

Friendly staff, cool spot to checkout!

Andrew McCallum

Some of the best beer I have ever had. Found a bourbon barrel aged stout that I regret not buying a truckload of. They do it right really freaking awesome

Max&RubyFan

Excellent beer selection, beautiful outdoor tap room, friendly staff.

Tom Schwirtz

Great brewry. Arguably the best porter I have tried!

Chris Corless

Went there mid summer and these guys know how to create a patio! Such a cool place, great beers and an amazing food truck. Will definitely be a stop next time through the island ????

Matt Philip

Great selection of island brews for all tastes. Try the Sangria Weiss... A specialty bar drink created by two of the staff. Worth the price and effort. If you're hungry, The Trough Cook Shack shares the patio area with the brewery, and has tasty selections with Herts portions of fries!

I have been fortunate to see what Craft Brewers are doing in many parts of the world and Manitoulin Brewing has something special going on. Absolutely cracking beer for great prices. My favourite is the Cup and Saucer. And the food, really enjoyable and again for great prices. Can't wait to see what the team at Manitoulin Brewing have done the next time I get a chance to visit.

Peter Taylor

Amazing location, food truck with smoked wings and burgers was delicious. Only watch out is their schedule, food truck is not available every day... beer section has a different schedule. A “must visit” when in Manitoulin

Morgan Jones

Fun little stop in. Really nice outdoor bar and patio with a great food truck on site. The great thing is that they are one of the only place open later at night!

Peter Witruk

Totally Bitchin

Jack Hinds

Quick pit stop on our way through Manitoulin Island, unfortunately we didn't have time to take advantage of the wicked patio they have here. We did grab some to go beers and an awesome tulip glass and magnet. Looking forward to passing through again, but with more time to spare!

Trina Berlo

Great beer (love the English style ale) and good atmosphere with an outdoor biergarten and a food truck. Definitely unexpected in a podunk town like Little Current!

Mike F

I love their beer and the food truck has awesome food!! We have been here several times!! The only suggestion is that after a rain storm.....dry off the picnic tables and benches please. We had a towel and used that when we were there today (this has happened before as well).

Cedric Ferrier

A must stop when visiting the island. Excellent food and the beer never seems to stop flowing when your sitting in the patio time just stops. Not sure what I'm talking about ? Try it for your self.

Whit Breeden

With the Covid 19 precautions in place. There is 4 people per table only. You order from the anchor inn. Selection is limited and can take 25-30min for your order. The beer “store” has a limit of 3 people inside. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Overall a wonderful experience.

Jurenda Jacobs

Great beer, good food, and friendly staff. Overall an awesome place to hang out with friends.

Eric McKenzie

Beer is ok, bartender was a rude jerk. The bartender ruined this experience for us as he referred to us as 'South of the Border'and not in a kind tone. We are from Grand Rapids, Michigan. Not South but West. Then he informed us that there he had no beer we would like because we probably prefer really hoppy beer. As he listed the drafts he did not speak clear or make eye contact. We ordered Weiss beer and APA. They were ok. But he is not a good ambassador for lovely Ontario Canada

Jesse Hals

Such a fantastic place! Absolutely breath taking sights to see, the people are so hospitable and acomadating, I honestly did not want to leave. I have to say my favorite spot we went to was providence bay ???? so wonderful I would recommend day trip or stay for the weekend, it's so rejuvenating!

Yousef Haddad

The disparity between this place and Split Rail is sizeable. I'm sure if I hadn't been here on a crazy busy Sunday during a holiday weekend I would have enjoyed it a little more, but the beer I tried was about average, the service though was pooooor. Again, holiday weekend and all, but seriously, come on bro, you work at a brewery, lighten up. Anyway, stop by on your way to or from Split Rail. Nice setup here with their patio and an impressive food truck outside.

Sean O'Hare

Perfect spot to grab a bite and have a beer. They have a great little patio, where you can enjoy a local atmosphere and try their delicious house brewed beer (try the Lemon Weiss...yum!). There is a food truck, Smoke Affair, that offers up a variety of smoked meats, burgers, etc...you gotta try the fish and chips! We were there for about 2 hours and brought home a mixed case of beer thats not available where we live. John, the supervisor and rep, offered up advice on where to visit while were on the island. He really knows his stuff...beer and local sights to see!

Jocelyn Butler

very cool set up, like a repurposed farm silo. bathrooms outside to support social distancing. collaborating with a local restaurant to provide food options. we had the pineapple sour, and the Killarney cream ale. both were great.

Chloe O'Toole

The experience at Manitoulin Brewing Company was great. The owner was a very informative person with the brewing process.. He was gave my son and I a knowledgeable talk about the process of his brewing technique (but not all his secrets..lol). Very courteous individual.. Thanks Manitoulin Brewing. Company

Isaac Gosse

Great beer, great fish

Cindy Bourgon

Everytime we are in town we stop by to enjoy some of the delicious beers. Great selection, plus they have cool merchandise… glasses, hats, shirts, etc. They even have some nice canvas art from the beer can designs. Very cool place, happy to always be a customer. Thanks. The island needs more cool businesses like this.

Eric Hovius

Great beer

Guillaume

Get beer selection and wonderful atmosphere!

Avinash Ravisankar

Just finished a can of All Day IPA. One of the most flavorful IPAs I have ever had. Not sure what hops they are using, but this has some serious layers of flavor. Loved it. So happy to find this in my local liquor store. Local being Edmonton, Alberta. Have been to the island several times, and I shouldn't be surprised that a special beer came from an extremely special place.

Jenn Phelps

Good looking brewery, no food. They offer a menu from a local partner but it doesn't look that good. Food truck was also close (5pm on Wednesday). Good selection of beer. From cream ale to IPA to Sour beers.

nathan bryant

Both style and substance. A+++

Roger Mak

Wonderful outdoor sitdown. Very casual atmosphere.

Dave Carson

The trough is one of the best food trucks around

Northern Boy

Young bar tender was courteous, ordered our dinner and brought beers to us with a pleasant smile and the brewmaster sold us the first can of pineapple sour. Highly recommended.

Phyl

Excellent beer, love the Bridal Veil pale ale. Great staff and some nice branded stuff to take home.

Abhilash Kantamneni

Nice setup, patio and store...but out of IPA?!?

Maynard James Keenan

I really like the different types of beer

Bri

Excellent beer, friendly staff, convenient location, fair prices. I’ll be back on my next visit to the island.

simivercity409 zach .cindric

Very good food polite service.I really enjoyed it.

Mathieu Page

Good beer, great food and atmosphere- highly recommend

Liz Murray

Awesome beer.

Elizabeth Patrick

Absolutely delicious!!!!

Jack Jensen

Not my favorite beer, but they have a really nice patio and a food truck for food.

Darcy McCann

Awesome food and drinks

PATRICK

Great beer and outdoor patio. Food at food truck was very good as well.

Doug Gibson

To deal with the pandemic, they've partnered with a nearby restaurant to provide food and drinks on their outdoor patio, and it's basically the best of both worlds. Great beer (try the lemon weiss, avoid the pineapple sour imho), really good food, and enough umbrella coverage to be comfortable. The staff were very welcoming and happy to provide more information about other things to do on the Island, and even made sure that the dog had enough water. If we're ever in Little Current again, it'll be a required stop!

Adam Berrill

Amazing patio and the food truck was great

Julian Rickards

I Know Why This Place Esso and Mcdonalds was Abandoned in Little Current Ontario I Don't Know Going to Opening Soon Call Esso With Tim Hortons Without Drive Thru Beside 3 Cows & A Cone The Town of Little Current Water Treatment Plant Manitoulin Hotel and Old Mcquarrie

Daniel Rodrigues

Very Expensive.

Claire Aboudarham

Great brewery with a burger truck that will cure your thirst and hunger. The patio is nicely setup with a beach feel.

Andre Boileau

If you are looking for some local craft beer and some sweet swag while on the island, make this location a must visit.

Jordan Ashton

Good beer and awesome food truck.

Nathan Dahms

best different types of beers and food ever

Tara Withers

I love the atmosphere at this brewery. I had a flight of some of what they have to offer. The beer they produce is quite good but you go here for the patio, food truck, and comradery. I participated in a tour of the facility itself and got to see the brewing process.

Andy Elmira

Great place friendly staff and great fish fry

sean cranney

Stopped by to pick up some of my old favourites and try some new limited release stuff Delicious beer, beautiful can art, with some talented and hard working entrepreneurs that have scaled a small-town brewery into a province wide sensation in just 2-ish years. What's not to like? The American Dream is alive and well on the Manitoulin Island. A must stop for fans of craft brew.

Eric Gazendam

Such a yummy dinner! Burgers were grilled expertly, portions were awesome! And of course, picked up a growler of the Lemon Weiss to take home :)

Adri Izq

Great local brewery. They have a several solid brews for all your different tastes. They will fill your growlers and not make you buy theirs which is A+ service in my books. Staff is really friendly and helpful. During the summer they have an outdoor patio and a food truck that serves delicious food. All the great local beer you need just a few minutes from the bridge!

Claire DeGroote

Never went inside but had a beer at The Silo, which is the outdoor bar. Beer was refreshing and the service from Victoria was excellent.

Daniel Berube

Good beer was had by all

Kelly O

The swing bridge blonde is fantastic. worth coming to Manitoulin for a great beer and a bite to eat. The food trailer outside offers lots of different foods, I had a delicious poutine.

Kim Ferridge

The swing bridge blonde surprised me with its unique flavour. At first I wasn't sure what to expect and didn't even know if I liked it. By my third sip, I can honestly say it is the best micro brew I have ever tried. I recommend it to my serious beer drinking friends. The only problem is, where I live, it isn't available, so I can only get it when I travel to Sudbury and the Island. I look forward to it being more widely available. 10 out of 10, would recommend to a friend, if they can find it. (I am reviewing the beer, not the location).

Jessi Ispanya

Friendly folks, good beer. Hats off the the fish and chips trailer on site! Best fish I have had forever

spencer serviss

Great outdoor space for sampling, food options available, dogs allowed, limited supply of merchandise (Covid relayed probably)

Eric Currin

Perfect place to go for a drink!

Ovidiu Cioca

(Translated) nice surprise on the road, food truck and festive ambiane, good beer (Original) belle surprise sur la route, food truck et ambiane festive, bonne biere

Tracy R

Cool spot!

alison gerrior

Great patio to have a drink and food on. Food truck right beside the patio with fish and chips and poutine. Can also order on from a local inn's restaurant during COVID. Nice variety of beer on tap and to buy from their store front. Lemon Weiss, pineapple sour, English pale ale, light lager and many more!

L H

Great place to try some interesting beer!

Chris Tolsma

Not a bad selection of beer made there. But be aware that some offerings are not their products. Ask if you care. The patio is drab and saved only by a high fence blocking a view of the roadway.. I didn't eat anything, but there is a food truck attached. Family friendly.

Annie Desrochers

Not open until fall.

Marcel Croteau

Amazing atmosphere.. What a great vibe!! Had dinner and a drink on there outdoor patio. My new favourite spot for date night!

Kristina Hacker

Food was great, so was the beer. Really great spot to stop at when arriving on the island!

Denise Wabanose

Recently tried Swing Bridge while visiting the island. Enjoyed it so much we decided to pop in to the brewery and try some others. The guys there took the time to tell us about each brew. Really loved Endless Summer and Killarney Cream Ale. Looking forward to our next pint!

Amanda Trudeau

Great group of people, making a great product, and coping well with COVID.

Dylan Marchese

Excellent beer, also the cider hits the spot. Food truck there makes good bbq items, poutine is recommended.

Jheanell Morris

Great little patio in the heart of little current. Good selection of 12 local beers. Smoke Affair Eatery food truck on site. Delicious food!
