Description:
<p><strong>Discover Toronto’s wild, weird history and the 100 unique beers it inspired! </strong> </p>
<p>Did you know that Babe Ruth hit his first home run in Toronto? Or that the city’s first taxi service was operated by a former slave from the American South? Or that, during the Second World War, anti-submarine technology was developed in a carriage house at Casa Loma? These are the sorts of stories Henderson Brewing Company has been celebrating with their monthly “Ides” series: unique brews that pay tribute to just-as-unique moments in Toronto’s history. </p>
<p><em>Toronto in 100 Beers</em> is more than a history of Henderson’s limited releases, it’s a history of the city itself: a city that has nurtured the lives and legends of artists, golfers, boxers, prog rockers, prestidigitators, hockey legends, and even a few ghosts. This book collects their stories and those of the beers dreamt up in their honour. Toronto is a wild, weird city whose rich history is worthy of celebration—so raise a glass to Toronto and to the Henderson Brewing Company.</p>
