40 Beers to Celebrate 40 Years! Day 28

Beer: Antigravity
Type: Light ale
Region: Barrie, Ontario
Rating: Novice

There's a little micro-brewery situated in downtown Barrie that was formerly known as the Robert Simpson Brewery. Their first beer was a Confederation Ale, and several years ago I enjoyed a lot of it on tap in various pubs around the Muskokas. I managed to tour the brewery and was not only thoroughly impressed with the operations, but I loved the product and the micro-breweries in general.

Today they are now known as Flying Monkeys Craft Brewery and have expanded their menu of beers. I don't drink a lot of light anything because many sacrifice taste, but not in this case.

Antigravity uses real, natural, certified organic ingredients and by brewing this a a light ale, you'll find better body and complexity than other light beers. Effervescent, not too hoppy or aggressive, it's a very easy beer to like.

As a footnote, if you can find yourself some Confederation Ale, get yourself a six, sit back, and enjoy a few.
