The Blue Elephant, a restaurant in Ontario’s Norfolk County specializing in casual Thai and pub fare, announced on August, 22 the launch of an on-site nanobrewery.

According to owner Heather Pond Manorome, the brewing system was installed over the summer, and the first brew – a light American-style lager – is due to go on tap this month. The lager will soon be joined by a pale ale, with both beers planned to be available year-round, accompanied by monthly and seasonal beers on a rotating basis.

Pond Manorome also noted that in keeping with the community-oriented nature of the pub, the names of the beers will be chosen by customers, who will be given a list of suggested names to vote on.
