I met a couple friends here in the summer and we grabbed a spot on the patio. This update to my previous review of Bellwoods Brewery is bringing down its star rating from a 4 to a 3 because of a couple things..
My friend ordered a light beer and she said she hated it. She had me try it and it literally tasted like someone had washed the cup with sunlight dish soap and didn't rinse it off! Maybe it was one of their beers with that citrusy flavour but it was taken to the utmost extreme that it was gross. I suggested she send it back but she didn't want to so I never found out what the heck was up with that.
We ordered the vegetarian platter that had things like olives and other pickled vegetables, bread and dip, and fried zucchini flowers. Nothing on that platter was that tasty. The olives were just weird tasting and I usually love olives. The zucchini flowers tasted like they had been fried half an hour before they were served to us and the hummusy dip had no flavour.
Perhaps these things were one-offs so I'm not going to demote it to two stars, but I was so taken aback by this experience considering how good it was the first time around that I had to amend my review of this place!
