Lowertown Brewery Craft Brewery & Scratch Cooking - In The Heart of the Byward Market
(749)

The land Lowertown Brewery was built on has been home to locally made beer for over 150 years! It used to be home to the Commercial Hotel Tavern, built in 1837, making it the oldest bar in the Ottawa area at the time. While the Tavern burned to the ground in 1982, its legacy lives on in the Lowertown community.

Le sol sur lequel Lowertown Brewery a été bâti est un site de bière fabriquée localement pour plus que 150 ans! Le Commercial Hotel Tavern a été contruit en 1837, et à l’époque était le plus ancien bar à Ottawa. Tandis que le Tavern est monté en flammes en 1982, son héritage a survécu dans la communauté de Lowertown.
