Resurrecting locally-brewed, pre-prohibition ales and lagers since 2015.
At Skeleton Park Brewery, we believe in perfecting the perfect. We know that over several millennia of brewing, the best beers have already been made so let's take those beers and make them even better.
We believe that real progress only happens when you start to measure it backwards. Take what's known and use it to push the envelope until true perfection has been reached.It also means following time-honored methods of skilled masters, instead of irreverently trying to reinvent them with reckless abandonment.
That’s why we’ve made it our mission to exhume and resurrect long lost recipes, and brew them with absolute precision using our modern techniques. Honoring in tried-and-true beer styles the way they have been for centuries.
In a time where most craft brewers are falling all over themselves frantically brewing audacious beers using unconventional ingredients in an attempt to tap into the newest fad, we thought we'd casually take a step aside from the herd and focus on brewing time-tested, traditional beer styles that were once popular an now massively underrepresented in the North American craft beer market.
Available year-round, our Heritage Series beers are authentic resurrections of long-dead recipes that were once brewed right here in one of Canada's earliest settlements: Kingston, Ontario.
Mixed packs available.
"Pre-prohibition brewers were notoriously secretive and so very few recipes have survived. Thankfully, our friends at Kingston city hall let us explore the archives, where we found trade publications, brewer's advertisements and records of their dealings with local farmers that helped us reverse-engineer their old recipes and brewing techniques. We believe that the results are as authentic and as local as you can get without a time machine."

Amber 6.6 is seriously about the best that's out there right now. Perfectly balanced. Properly brewed! So glad you delivered to North Bay.
I loved the stories of finding old records in the Kingston archives to try and recreate old recipes, even harvesting an old hop found in the area and that they are now the only brewery who use it.
Visited 2 weeks ago, drank a Proper English and an Hundred Miles cream ale. Loved both of them so much that I bought some to bring back home so my boyfriend could try them too.
