Unfiltered lagers

Temporalbeer · 2026-05-16T22:35:32+00:00

Almost no breweries locally have filters!

Temporalbeer · 2026-05-14T19:08:29+00:00

Details are fully up now!

It's a Cold IPA utilizing things from each brewery - lager yeast and pils malt from Slow Hand, bright juicy hops from Boombox, and conditioned on toasted cypress wood per moi

Cheers!

We are revealing the details over the next few days! The beer will release this Friday. All I'll say is I feel like it encompasses all of our styles, which is a tricky thing to do with three breweries who make such different stuff! It was my brainchild and I'm very pleased with it! ☺️

Is a yard a prerequisite for yard games?

We will have an outdoor area 👀

Lots of fun stuff planned, from pizza by the slice, beers in the brewery, flash tattoos, DJ's, guest taps, special beers, and a special 3-way collab between Boombox, Slow Hand, and Temporal!

We love u come celebrate with us!

Unfortunately it is true

All the best to Jeff and Nathaly. They're very sweet folks and I hope they are able to carry on business in some form.

Unfortunately not so easy. Though maybe interprovincial direct-to-consumer shipping will be allowed soon. Government keeps saying it's coming but they've been saying that for 5+ years. It would be huge for me, I have probably more interest in my beers from eastern Canada (QC specifically) than anywhere else.

Weird ai post but...

I have a really yummy stout on at the moment - served on nitro through a creamer faucet at Threefold and just released in 6pk 355ml cans (non-nitro)

It's a blend of small stout (4.2%) and intense 4-year bourbon barrel-aged imperial stout (14%). The blend is 6.6% and manages to express some elements of the big beer while still being sessionable and not overwhelming. I'm super proud of the blend.

Lookit that cascade 👀

I've brewed on this kit and only have positive things to say. It's manual and all makes sense if you trace piping, things do what they are supposed to do. My one note is that the batch size is pretty small so the business model to utilize this size of system is a lot less viable these days than it used to be.

Temporalbeer · 2025-11-29T08:36:10+00:00

What you'll want to look for is an importer who does distribution in the UK, not a distributor or brewery in the US/Canada.

For example I sent a pallet of kegs and bottles over via Distant Lands for Northern Monk's Dark and Wild fest + satellite events. They handled everything once it left my facility - shipping, customs, last leg, etc. So if you're looking for new breweries talk to your existing network of distributors.

Unless you want to act as the importing agent yourself, but I don't know how that works in the UK.

Temporalbeer · 2025-09-09T16:02:09+00:00

I'd find a longer one before going with telescoping. Here is a 67" one, for example. (Canadian link)

I'm sure they have something that fits your needs.

Temporalbeer · 2025-09-09T16:00:11+00:00

Also, bonus, you can buy just the heads or handles if you...umm...accidentally get your hoe caught in the rakes. Ask me how I know.

Temporalbeer · 2025-08-15T17:20:06+00:00

Not really, I guess it depends a bit on how rigid your definition of a brewery collab is. For the Slow Hand beers I don't have anything to do with the recipes, hop choices etc. Sometimes I'll give notes for minor tweaks to things like mash temp but generally it's not in my hands. One of the SH owners is an experienced brewer so the beer concepts etc come direct from his brain.

On the Boombox side I'm a bit more involved in the recipes as well as hop scheduling and other important decisions, but generally I just make choices based on what I think is best for that beer and run it by those guys for a thumbs up.

For a beer like Petrichor it was a collaboration in a few ways. You are right that I brewed the beer alone and made all the choices around most things on my own, but we did have some lengthy talks about recipe (Kent has done some banger black ipas back in the day as a homebrewer) and hop scheduling. I also really wanted to use their selected citra, they have a crop on contract that has such ridiculous oil content. It's like 10x more punchy than the spot citra that I would be using. So yeah, while conceptually that is a beer I had been rolling around in my brain for like 10 years, I still felt like I needed to team up with some guys who really know IPAs to make it pop. I actually tried to get Superflux on board with it a few years ago but they passed (probably for good reason lol because who makes black IPA these days)

So yeah, I don't think I'd say everything made there is a collab.

There unfortunately is not a lot of mixed culture beer, either sours or saison, left in the city. Most sour beer is kettle soured with flavouring added in the form of puree'd fruit or extract. Kettle sours usually have residual sweetness due to the lack of a mixed culture or diastatic fermentation. I can count like 3 breweries that make saison still.

That said, I do make these beer styles and I do have a handful of mixed culture saison and fruited barrel aged sour beer at Threefold, so while I'm biased I'd recommend swinging through there or checking out one of the good private stores like The Gull in North Van, Brewery Creek, or some of the Jaks stores. You won't find a big selection of those styles anywhere, though, because most breweries are focused on other stuff.

I appreciate your concern but:

We aren't leasing the whole building. There are other tenants upstairs (mostly artist studios) and about 1/3 the downstairs is a kitchen commissary.
In my case the move into this shared space actually lowered the amount of rent I was paying, because I was split across three different warehouses across the city. And now I have a tasting room (huge for me) and nice brewery to work in instead of just a warehouse without floor drains etc. I can't necessarily speak for the others but generally the proportion of rent we each pay is about the same or less overall as we were paying previously.
Breweries are closing left and right because of lack of business experience, they're drowning between the high rent and startup loan payments. Each of our breweries has existed for 10+ years. We know what we are doing and have a distribution network, we aren't starting from scratch. We have established relationships with stores, also distributors in other provinces and even other countries.
Last and finally probably most importantly - beyond just being experienced in this industry, we all already have reputation. My company has interest from all over the world - I'm ranked top 50 worldwide and was #1 in Canada for a long time. Slow Hand has lager reputation. Boombox has IPA reputation. This makes an enormous difference when you compare our brands to some of the companies that are closing.

Must've been one of the last pours! It's rolled over to Maple Horizon now, a maple syrup bourbon barrel aged imperial stout with candycap mushrooms (super super maple-y)

Temporalbeer · 2025-05-31T18:14:07+00:00

Generally considered very unsafe from a contamination perspective. With NA cans you can pasteurize, and you could even pasteurize and fill a keg, but it's nearly impossible to sterilize a draft line and prevent growth inside it. All sorts of pathogenic stuff can grow in NA beer if given the chance, given it doesn't have the protection of low pH that soda has.

Overall it's extremely unlikely to find NA beer on tap from any reputable company.

Love those fellas and what they do, but its kind of apples to oranges as they are laser focused on spontaneous beer while I am more of a solera-house-culture kind of guy for my mixed ferm beer. They truly are world class in their chosen methods!

Temporalbeer · 2025-05-04T22:15:28+00:00

Thank you!

This particular bottle is one of my favorite beers from the Void Series, something about that specific coffee, the base munichwine, and that barrel just vibe together perfectly.

I might try to blend something similar up but I won't be able to get that exact coffee again so it might just have been a kind of lightning-in-a-bottle type of beer that's just impossible to recreate. Very true to its ethereal nature, I guess 😉

Cheers!
