History

Cool Beer Brewing was founded in 1997 by Bobby Crecouzos.[1] The brewery started off in Brampton, Ontario, as just a small microbrewery serving one type of beer. After the brewery introduced its hemp based brand of beer in 2003, it outgrew its Brampton location, and in 2005, moved to Etobicoke to help maintain growth and meet demand.[2]

Beers

The Cool Beer Brewing offers three types of beer. Cool Beer, a North American Blonde lager, is its flagship brew, which it started brewing in 1997.[3] In 2003, they released Millennium Buzz Hemp Beer, which was the first beer in Canada that is hemp-based.[4] In 2009, the brewery released its third beer, Stonewall Light. This was the first light beer produced by the brewery, and is similar to Cool Beer, but with fewer carbohydrates and calories.[5]

Packaging

The brewery started by offering only bottles and full-sized kegs. In 2013, they added 355 mL slim cans as well as being the first brewery to offer a 3.1 L mini keg to their packaging options.[6]

The beers are offered as bottles in 4 packs, 24 packs, and single cans. In addition to the mini keg, there is also a 20L keg and 58.6L keg available.

gollark: WHYJIT now bundles a C compiler with your horrible code!
gollark: I'm going to look into bundling GCC or something for maximum wastefulness in WHY.
