Name: Willkommen Platz
Start: 2026-10-09
Location: Twas Now Brewing

Twas Now Brewing may be the smallest garage brewery in the Waterloo Region, but it punches far above its modest dimensions. Tucked into a converted garage in Kitchener, Ontario, this outfit was hatched by a tight‑knit group of friends (who’d rather pour a pint than chase a briefcase). The result is a hyper‑local operation that treats every batch like a love letter to the neighbourhood, drawing on local lore for flavour cues that surprise and delight.

What sets them apart is the sheer devotion to craft. Their 1000 Resolutions IPA boasts a flavour profile so distinctive it feels like a secret handshake for beer fans, while a citrus‑kissed lime twist in the cerveza proves they’re not afraid to experiment responsibly. The branding is slick, the merchandise looks as if it were designed by a boutique, and each brew is stamped with a clear community focus. In short, Twas Now Brewing combines authentic, hands‑on workmanship with a dash of cheeky creativity—delivering quality beer that feels like a warm‑handed toast to Kitchener’s vibrant spirit.
