Originally the site of a military base in the 18th and early 19th centuries, development of the area into a government precinct began in 1859. The current Centre Block is the second iteration of the building, after the first was destroyed by fire in 1916. This all malt Pale Ale is clean drinking with a noticeable short bitter finish. Natural Blonde was our first beer back in 2010 and has always been our most food friendly brew.
