History

Our Apple-Growing Heritage

Blue Mountain Light Lager
is a clean, dry and refreshing craft lager inspired by the morning sun that rises over Georgian Bay. Made from the purest drinking water in North America, Blue Mountain Light Lager brings the taste of the Blue Mountains home.

The Tale of the Cider House Building
The Thornbury Craft Co. Cider & Brew House building was originally a wooden apple storage building but was rebuilt with fire-proof concrete after it burnt down in the 1920s. Steam trains would arrive from the harbor in Toronto and return loaded with crates of apples from the original Thornbury building. As storage buildings were built closer to the markets, the building lived through different lives—a flea market, an ammunition storage, and a nuclear fallout shelter during the cold war.
