How many brewers does it take to create a beer you can drink without getting a dry mouth? In the case of the Habits Gastropub, it took three who worked closely to perfect the gastro pub's first custom beer. "It’s a Belgian style saison," says Michelle Genttner who runs the popular College Street hangout with Luis Martins "It's made with hops and has a light, citrusy taste."
Likely the first of a range of beers that will be under the Habits label, Luis and Michelle place a lot of importance on creative wines, spirits and craft beers.
"We have one of the biggest collections of whiskies in the GTA," says Michelle. "We had no idea, but a whiskey connoisseur told us! We just collected what we enjoyed over the years and stocked it at Habits Gastropub, it was a labour of love."
