When it comes to craft beers in Canada, an Oakville brewery is simply golden.

Cameron Brewing’s Jurassic IPA has taken home the gold medal at the 2022 Canadian Brewing Awards in the highly coveted American-Style India Pale Ale category.

The win for the local brewery, located at1165 Invicta Drive, comes on the heels of a first-place win at the 2021 World Beer Awards for its Cruising Through the Galaxy New England IPA.

“We are humbled and overwhelmed by these prestigious awards,” says Clint Israel, President of Cameron’s. “To be recognized amongst all the amazingly talented Canadian breweries is a tremendous honour.”

The 20th annual Canadian Brewing Awards was held in Calgary and featured breweries from all over the country competing in 58 different categories, from low-alcohol beer to gluten-free beer to smoked beer to herb-and-spice beer and even experimental beer.

The winners were determined by blind taste-testing.

The Jurassic IPA, which features citrus, grapefruit and mango aromatics, wasn’t the only Cameron’s beer to wow the judges. The brewery also took home a bronze medal for its Beste Bock, a traditional German-style beer.

“This is a big cheers to our brewing and packaging team and their hard work,” says Jason Britton, Vice President and Brewmaster at Cameron’s.

Cameron’s Brewing award-winning products have now been recognized more than 250 times at local, national and worldwide brewing awards, including 18 major beer awards in 2019 alone.
