AboutNickel Brook Brewing Co.
Brothers John and Peter Romano founded Nickel Brook in Ontario. The business grew out of their Better Bitters U-Brew operation and took the Nickel Brook name in 2005, shifting from make-your-own beer to a dedicated craft brewery. The name combines those of John’s children, Nick and Brook. The brewery has taprooms in Burlington and Etobicoke, with a range spanning lagers, IPAs, sour beers and non-alcoholic options.
Nickel Brook Peach Uber Berliner Weisse
Canadian Beer
Ripe peach is the clear centre of the palate, carried by a tart Berliner Weisse base with bright lemon-zest lift and lively effervescence. The fruit feels fresh and expressive, while the sourness remains focused rather than severe. A crisp, gently tangy finish makes this especially refreshing. Serve well chilled with soft goat cheese, grilled sausages, fish tacos or a summer salad built around tomatoes and herbs.
Nickel Brook Dark Knight Imperial Stout
Canadian Beer
Roasted malt leads with deep notes of dark chocolate and coffee, followed by a darker fruit tone that adds breadth without softening the beer's structure. The palate is full-bodied and smooth, with measured bitterness bringing balance to the rich malt profile. A long, warming finish suits slow sipping. Serve cool rather than ice-cold with braised beef, smoked brisket, blue cheese or a restrained dark-chocolate dessert.
