 The Bar Towel - Upper Canada Brewing Co.
Upper Canada beers are currently brewed by Sleeman Breweries, but readers of the Bar Towel should know the history and impact of the formerly independent Upper Canada Brewing Company, its principles and what it stood for, before it assumed its present form as a segment of Sleeman's portfolio.

 World of Beer 02/98: Beer News from North America
Along with Waterloo's Brick Brewing and Guelph's Wellington County Brewing, Upper Canada Brewing was one of the first three craft brewers to start in Ontario and is currently a significant player in the Ontario market, especially in and around Toronto.
Already the largest craft brewer in Canada with a reported 2.15% share of the Ontario beer market, Sleeman would become a potent force on the national beer scene and a 3% stake-holder in the Ontario market should its acquisition of Upper Canada be completed.
The upshot of the deal is that Ontario will be one brewing company and several brands poorer, as Sleeman will undoubtedly pick and choose which beers to continue in production from the broad Upper Canada portfolio, and numerous Upper Canada employees will lose their jobs.

 The Net Net: Upper Canada Rebellion Ale
I was told that it was impossible to buy in one province a beer that was brewed in another (true then?), and indeed I didn't see any Moosehead, that staple of fraternity houses in the U.S., perhaps because it's from Nova Scotia.
Upper Canada Rebellion Ale is, says its label, "extra premium," and "microbrewed," in fact, "[b]rewed to the highest standards in the world to satisfy the most discriminating beer connoisseurs." Three barley malts, imported hops (Cascade hops, from the exotic United States), and Canadian spring water: such statements, especially about the water, threaten a bad beer.
The courage of the rebels of Upper Canada in 1837 is, the label goes on, the inspiration for this beer.

Upper Canada has gone to great lengths to associate its brand with arts causes, yet a decision to cancel this award after only three years makes their involvement seem more like fair-weather marketing than an effort to promote Canadian arts.
One must wonder whether Upper Canada is actually committed to the arts or committed solely to using the arts as part of its brand positioning.
We at Bookninja call on Upper Canada to reinstate the award or remove all marketing materials related to it from their website and issue a proper public announcement about the cancelled status of the award.
