Bellwoods Brewery has a problem many small businesses long for. Their beer has become so popular, the retail shop at their brewery on lower Ossington Avenue routinely runs out of stock.
“Even devoting everything we make here on site [for sale at the shop], we still had to close our bottle shop on Labour Day because we ran out of beer,” said co-owner Mike Clark.
They’re expanding… But there’s a catch. In order for a brewery to open a second retail shop, it has to be producing more than 25,000 hectolitres of beer a year – that’s more than seven million standard beer bottles’ worth of the good stuff.
