There are now 250 craft breweries in Ontario!

By the end of 2010, there were around 46 craft breweries operating in Ontario.

Today, just over 7 years later, we’re celebrating a milestone number of 250 craft breweries – a 443% increase over than span.

People’s Pint Craft Brewing in Toronto, which opens today at 4pm, takes the counter to 250, according to OBN’s directory count.

Ontario’s planned brewery count is at 91 (that we know of) and the Ontario Craft Brewers trade association predicts an upwards of 500 breweries in Ontario over the next decade. Currently, there are 115 distinct cities and towns in Ontario with at least one craft brewery.
