Crafting a truly unique beer requires a great recipe, the best ingredients, and a consistency that can only be achieved through countless hours of practice.

Side Launch Brewing Company was a dream that started in a hockey dressing room between friends and opened its doors in 2014. It’s just a short drive from the base of Blue Mountain, nestled in the heart of Collingwood, among 27,000 square feet of immaculate brewing space.

We have a 35-hectolitre brew house with 35-, 70-, and 140-hectolitre fermenters. All our beer uses Collingwood water filtered through our in-house filtration system, a blend of imported and domestic malts, and hops sources from all over the world.

Our name, Side Launch Brewing Company, celebrates the deep-rooted history of shipbuilding that has fuelled our town since the late 1880s. For over a hundred years, Collingwood was responsible for building lake freighters designed to fit through the narrow locks of the St. Lawrence Seaway.
