Visit websiteAbout Aether Brewing
Northgate drinkers treat this warehouse brewery as an open secret for small-batch pours pulled metres from the fermentation tanks. Stools sit directly on the production floor—putting you right beside the stainless steel. Taps cycle through cold Mexican lagers, blackberry sours, and seasonal dark ales by the schooner. Food trucks roll in on weekends for pizza and fried chicken, dogs lounge under the benches, and the platform at Northgate station sits four minutes away on foot.
- On-Site Working Brewery: Ales, lagers, and fruit sours brewed on premises, with seating arranged right beside the fermentation vats.
- Rotating Food Trucks: A rotating calendar of food trucks parked outside slinging wood-fired pizza, burgers, and fried wings.
- Transit-Friendly Location: A four-minute walk from the Northgate rail platform, keeping transit easy and car-free.
- Dog-Friendly Taproom: A spacious, industrial weekend setup with live music where dogs are openly welcomed inside.
