Customer Reviews

For over a decade the purchase price of every Toy Soldier kit bought by our loyal customers has made Christmas merrier for local kids.

The kit brews a heart-warming spicy beer perfect for the holiday season and comes with a matching Pint Glass. We like to think of it as the magic of Christmas in liquid form.

Each year we tally up the year’s sales on Nov. 1st. Then we work with local stores, churches, and charities to put gifts under the trees of kids in need. Together we have gifted bikes, warm coats, great food, and toys.

You can join the fun without buying a kit by purchasing a Gift Certificate and entering “Toy Soldier” into one of the fields. We take care of the rest!

Cheers,
The Walkers, Patrick, Angela, Aarya, Ayla & Byron

Excellent!

After conditioning this beer for over 30 days, it turned out really good.It seems to get better with time. I made this for December.... but I can't stop my self wanting to have more.

Amazing Stout

Soaked the oak and vanilla beans in some vodka for a little extra kick. One of the best stouts I've brewed to date. Did a 10 gal batch and the first corny was gone in a few weeks! Will definitely be doing this one again and again.

Good Tasting Beer

This is a great beer but next time I will leave the smoke oak chip 7 to 10 days max. Might add lactose, keep in mind I bottle only 7 days ago just couldn't wait to try it.

Awesome!

This was one of the best kits I have purchased. I recommend two weeks with the oak chips, any longer and it may be over powering. As per usual, ingredients are fresh and shipping is super fast.

Fantastic

I'm not a stout lover, I'm more of a two stouts a year kind of stout drinker. Made a 10 gal. batch during OBK's annual drive figuring that if I didn't like it, I had friends who would appear out of nowhere and the proceeds are going to a good cause anyway. After fermentation took place, and allowing it to sit in a keg for three weeks, it is smooth, creamy, not too heavy. Well worth it, glad I took a chance. I will be purchasing another batch next year (2018).

Fantastic Stout

If you want to impress your beer snob friends you need to make this. Comes out fantastic as a stout with tonnes of flavour to enjoy anytime, not just the holidays.
