If you ever happen to pass by this way, I highly recommend this little brewery for a stop. it's a small place, with only three tables, but nicely decorated. They even put a little potted plant on the table! There are certainly many micro breweries popping up here and there, but plenty of times, their beers are just so so. Not here. They only have a few taps, but whatever they have is well crafted, nice quality stuff. This brewery has four owners and each is in charge of brewing one week a month. Sadly, they don't get to go paddling for the rest of the month, for there are plenty to do around the place. Like scrubbing the toilet, ha ha. They do get creative and experimental, and only brew in 200L batches, so in three years they have brewed over 130 different recipes. Their flagship Home Sweet Home, a honey vanilla wheat ale, is about the only constant in the line up. My favorite part is how the flight comes in a little canoe. So very cute!!! Am I the only one who thinks the canoe will go very well with a flotilla of sushi boats? They have a fridge selling their bottled beers and a shelf selling souvenirs. If you happen to be driving along this part of 401, definitely recommend a little detour! You won't be disappointed!

Cool spot.

What a great experience! Buddies and I went on a Friday afternoon. Got to chat with the awesome staff and sample some amazing beers. No run of the mill pints here. As the one lad said 'we are going for a reaction, hopefully it's wow that's good, but sometimes it's wow that's horrible'. The chocolate peanut butter stout, coconut cream pie wheat and double double coffee ale are good examples. And the flavours were not subtle. Big, big flavour. So tasty. There are some seats up front and plenty more in back. Just felt like a spot we wanted to spend more time at. Will definitely be back. And we'll take an Uber.

5 paddles had a nice variety. I was able to try beers that were completely new to me (I have never seen a brut ipa before visiting). The beer was very tasty and the brewers were very welcoming and nice. We would definitely go back!!

The beers are not my favourite, but they are enjoyable and they all kind of cross a better than average but not amazing threshold.

Random find while in Whitby. I came to Whitby to explore the area and check out the waterfront. It…read morewas chilly so I decided to google and found The Little Beasts Brewing Company near by. I saw on Instagram they were pet friendly which is always a plus and that they had FOOD! Nice interior and a lot of seating and a Patio out front. The owner was nice and I tried a flight of beers which is the best way to try out a variety without committing to a pint of one! I got the Smoll which is a newer brew, the Petit Duchesse, Roller Beast and Kraken. My favs were the Kraken and Smoll. They were all great but I would definitely get those again! Service was quick and friendly. In the back they have Pattersons Pizza making Neapolitan style pizza. I was surprised they were there! I originally tried their pizza at a Markham Dog Alliance event and was excited to try another pizza. The pizza is very much a tradition Neapolitan style pizza, reminded me of the pizza I had in Naples. The sauces, the thin crust, chewy and yummy and the delectable cheese and pepperoni was a nice balance to the variety of brews I enjoyed. Ian the chef, really loves what he does! Very passionate chef and enjoyed the friendly chat! A random find, a random afternoon, overall a wonderful day! Worth checking out!! I will return!!!

I have come here and got bottles a few times now. They are a pretty decent brewery. Their Saisons…read moreare very good, I wasn't a huge fan of their West Coast IPA but it wasn't horrible just not Hoppy enough for my preference. Their branding is fun, I love the bottles. I haven't been able to enjoy the tap room yet. Hopefully eventually.

I had the pleasure of celebrating a friend's birthday at 12welve Bistro in Whitby and it was a…read morereally good evening of good food and celebration! It was a mingling type of event with finger foods, including Bruschetta Crostinis, Cheeseburger Sliders, Fried Chicken Sliders, Spring Rolls, Coconut Shrimps, and Assorted Flatbreads. Everything was really good, with very generous portions that resulted in lots of takeout containers. The food, drinks, venue, and staff were all excellent! The DJ provided a great mix of music all evening.

We were here for the first time since their opening about 5 years ago, it was when we were a big…read morefan of our local brewing company "Brock St Brewing co" which this restaurant is affiliated with. I remember that I was very disappointed by the food, but at that time, I thought that they were just doing some experimentation to introduce interesting Asian fusion food in this culinarily underwhelming town of Whitby. Thought it would be a good try. So I decided to come back maybe after this place settled more, but then COVID hit. And we never had a chance to come back until today. Unfortunately, the food experience was even worse this time. And their beer went very far from my beer preference, serving a lot of beers with wacky flavors - looks like those beers are taking over their craft beer lineups. Food: We had # Charred octopus with seasoned tomato sauce, chorizo, Calabria chili, ink tapioca crisp. Well, Octopus did not have "charred" flavor. Surface had no crispness. The portion was huge, but the octopus was rubbery texture, dry. The tomato sauce underneath it was just too much for the octopus portion. Over-seasoned & salty tomato sauce with additional salt and spice from chorizo pieces. Do they want to make me thirsty to sell more beer? Yes that might have worked, and unfortunately it didn't. I waited for our server to order another beer but it took her more than 15 minutes to come to our table . # Jagerschnitzel : Essentially, schnitzel. Came with braised red cabbage, apple sauerkraut, Yukon mashed potato with "mushroom sauce". Schnitzel was endlessly huge but dry. Mushroom sauce tasted like can or some pre-made cheap & junky taste. A lot of mashed potatoes. Well suited for those who want to get a lot of comfort food to fill stomach with no intention of enjoying delicacy. Beer was OK. They have rotating beer selections on tap. We had tap beers such as IPA, Scotch Ale and Premium Pilsner. IPA was not as good, it left a lot of one-dimensional bitter aftertaste. If I want IPA then I will go to Town Brewery. Premium Pilsner was good. We also had Scotch Ale which was also good with nice Scotch aftertaste. Do I come back? No, if the food quality remains the same.

The vibes are just solidly positive. It was busy on a Thursday night right before the holidays, with many large groups, and the servers are all smiling, everyone there is happy, and the host chose us an excellent spot near the edge of the room where our toddler could walk around the table without being in the way of servers or guests. Can't say enough positive things about our three visits to Beertown.

I particularly enjoyed the Pork Belly sliders it was flavorful, well-seasoned, and had a fantastic presentation. The portions of the food were pretty good to share. Their beer selection is top-notch, offering an impressive range of local craft brews and international favorites. Whether you're a fan of IPAs, lagers, or something more experimental, there's something for everyone. Service was amazing! Our server Matt was very attentive and made she we were comfortable throughout the meal. He also made great recommendations for the paddle! Overall, Beertown is a great choice for anyone who loves good food and even better beer. Definitely recommend for beer lovers and foodies alike!
