New craft brewery coming to Goderich

Wetting one's whistle
may become a little more
convenient in Goderich as
a new craft brewery looks
to open shop here in the
near future.
Alex Menary, president
of Square Brew Inc., told
council Oct. 24 that he is
looking to open his brewery
at 430 Parsons Court with a
retail store and tasting
room.
However, in order for
Square Brew to serve 355
ml glasses of beer at the
site, it needs a Manufactur-
er's Limited Liquor Sales
License. And as part of the
application process to the
Alcohol and gaming Com-
mission of Ontario, an
approval letter is required
from the municipality.
"The license that we've
applied for allows us to sell
12 ounce glasses of the beer
that we make. We can only
sell our beer. We can't sell
other brewery's beers and
we can't sell any other
types of liquor," he told
council, adding, "It's a
license that we need" to sell
beer and offer samples.
Menary said he is excited
and "hoping" to be a
medium-size, start up pro-
duction brewery with taps
starting to flow by spring.
Councillor Matt Hoy said
he had an opportunity to
speak with Menary earlier
about his business and is in
full support of it.
"He's a very talented young
man," Hoy told council. `... I
fully support this. I think the
chance for us to have a locally
brewed beer named the
square is really good for our
community and its fantastic
opportunity to advertise the
town of Goderich. Nice work,
well done:'
Menary said he is going to
start off with three lagers: a
pilsner, a Vienna lager and
an Indian pale lager. Once
established, he will look to
adding to his roster with sea-
sonal tastes, he said.
Mayor Kevin Morrison,
who owns a restaurant on
Goderich Courthouse Square,
GODERICH
�TOYOTA
said he understands how
drawn out the application for
a liquor licence can be, and
sympathizes with the young
man.
"I think it will be a great
addition to the community,"
the mayor said.
Council passed the motion
and will be backing Menary's
application.
Following the decision,
Menary told the media that
most people he's spoken to
about his brewery are for it.
"I think everybody we've
talked to has been into it ...
and it's great to see council
was excited about it as well,"
he said.
