Split Rail Brewing Co. sits on the rim of Manitoulinâs lake, a place where the water reflects the ambition of a garageâborn operation (the founders, who met over a shared love of hawberries, decided to keep things simple) turned communityâbacked craft haven. The brewers swear by local handâpicked hawberriesâtart, daring, and often starring in a sour ale that could make a grown man weep with delight. Their taproom opens onto an expansive patio, the sort of setting where you can actually see the water while your pint cools, a luxury in a world of windowless beer temples.
Beyond the drinks, the place offers nonâalcoholic sour sodas that taste like rebellion in a glass, and pretzels baked onâsite that are crisp enough to rival any bakeryâs best. The merch rack is a treasure trove for anyone who thinks a Tâshirt should smell faintly of hops. Among the lineup, the amber ale and the pilsner shine brightest, each a masterclass in balance and flavor. In short, Split Rail is a celebration of craft, community, and the occasional burst of island sunshine.
