We popped in here after our first set of hikes as you were chasing waterfalls in Hamilton. We didn’t have any reservations but saw online that you could do first come first serve and thought we would take our chances. when we got there, there were a lot of open tables, yet there wasn’t any thing available for us to be seated right away. We were patient and asked if we could wait a bit because we had heard great things and really wanted to try the beer and food. We saw a few people leave and noticed on the reservation system that there wasn’t anyone coming yet we were told that we still needed to wait my friend decided to talk to the manager who was kind enough to seat us down right away as we told them we were from Toronto. The service was great we got served relatively quickly minus the fact that we had to ask for water a few times and it was a really hot day. I decided to get the flight I tried two beers and two seltzers. I ended up having the pork belly bun as my lunch and had two servings of which the second one I shared with one of my friends. The pork belly is cooked to perfection and the extra sauce that comes with was delicious. My friend who had the mushroom buns really enjoyed her food as well. The corn salad was interesting we thought it would be a little bit more sweet and it was more so on the saucy tangy side not something that we would have again but the buns were definitely worth it. One thing I really liked about the beer garden is the art there are a lot of painted walls that are different and beautiful

Never been to the brewery but have ordered various beers 3 times in the past 2 months after my neighbor introduced me to collective arts beer. The beers are a hit or miss, I find. Absolutely loved the Mango and Passion Fruit IPA but it disappeared from the website right before I was going to place a big order as everyone in the family loved it. Emailed them to inquire about it but no one bothered to respond. Later found out it was a limited release. What a bummer. Ransack the Universe was OK... Matter of Fact blond ale was very good. Ciders were so-so, strange aftertaste, but I did like the Circling the Sun cider. Some beers were downright undrinkable, like Mai Tai sour (really weird taste) or the Blueberry, Chocolate, Coffee and Vanilla Sour - I couldn't finish one glass. Liked the IPA #17 a lot but it's a limited release as well. Frustrating to come to like a beer only to have it unavailable a couple of months later. I am glad they just recently started offering every beer for purchase as individual cans. A month or two ago when I was ordering, Mai Tai or the Blueberry, Chocolate, Coffee and Vanilla Sour, for example, were only offered as 4-packs or larger... if you don't like it, you have to throw away a few cans which is what I did with a few beers that I ordered, unfortunately. Same day delivery if you order early enough is great. And thanks for the inspiration. I have brewed a 5-gallon batch of milkshake IPA and it tastes amazing. Never thought I'd like this type of beer but I love it.

This is such a hot spot in town - really a historic brewery building which Collective Arts now owns. We did the tour ($56/2 adults (comes with a pint which you can enjoy on said tour and 5% off at the store after)) which was hella interesting. Go behind the scenes and see how this marvellous beer gets made. It’s clear that this brewery is growing as is their following, and that has resulted in new equipment which is super interesting to learn about. Follow the process, get a sample of the beer, and learn about this super cool brewery from how it all began to where it’s going next. Highly recommend the tour! Also the beer is of course amazing, as is there cider. There’s a beer garden to chill out in as well as a shop which sells some sweet merch and of course, their beer, cider, gin etc. Prices are reasonable for craft beer and it’s super cool that so much credit is given to the artists. It’s a really neat idea and we can’t wait to come back for a flight and some trivia. Definitely going to be a spot we bring family and friends when they come to visit us.

My husband and I paid a visit back in early December and it was cold that day. We didn’t make a reservation but managed to grab a table where there were no heaters. A few minutes into looking at the drinks and food menu, our server came over to tell us a bigger table was available and it also had a heater. I thought it was nice of them to move us since they could have easily left that table for a bigger party. The staff here were super friendly and accommodating even though we only ordered two drinks. Afterwards, we decided to go to the shop and picked up some of the craft beers and merch. I love how the shop supports local artists! I ended up buying a handmade scrunchie and still use it till this day. Would definitely be back when the weather is warmer and when COVID goes away.

Shout out to Nate at Collective Arts Hamilton for going above and beyond and exceeding our expectations yesterday (Thanksgiving Monday). He was very accommodating, informative, patient, personable and generous with his time. Everyone working at the brewery that day was super nice, but Nate truly was fantastic! The products were great, facility was clean, staff were attentive and the cool art and company philosophy were a bonus. Nate took care of us, despite having short notice. My husband, son and I drove from Burlington, but my other son was visiting from Vancouver. (My son is also a “Nate”). It was our first visit but it definitely won’t be our last. We left with a box of yummy bevvies. Thanks for making it a great day, Nate!

We threw a 70 person baby shower at Collective's event space this past weekend and it was such a fantastic venue! Their events manager, Stuart, was so quick and easy to communicate with, he truly went above and beyond for us. Nick and the Collective staff were really friendly and helpful throughout, and Mel and her staff from Collective's in-house catering company (NomNomNom Catering) provided the perfect spread of delicious food (our guests RAVED about it the entire time!). The venue is beautiful as is, they had a huge selection of both alcohol and non-alcohol drink options, and having in-house catering made everything SO efficient and easy to plan - highly recommend for your next event!!
