British beer magazine Original Gravity is to launch a Toronto edition in May

Original Gravity, a British quarterly beer magazine, is launching a Canadian edition in Toronto. The first will be the spring-summer edition coming out May 17, 2018. There will be three issues in 2018. Respected beer writer Stephen Beaumont will be editor-in-chief.

“Toronto has been crying out for a top beer publication for a long time,” says Beaumont [in a releae] “So when [publisher] Daniel [Neilson] approached me with the idea of launching a local version of Original Gravity, a magazine I have long admired on my visits to London, I leapt at the chance.” 

“Original Gravity in the UK is a respected publication with an interesting angle that appeals to all readers, from the merely craft beer-curious to die-hard beer enthusiasts,” says Neilson. “As editor-in-chief, Stephen will bring his vast expertise and brilliant writing to the magazine.”    

Featured will be Toronto-centric versions of columns popular with Original Gravity’s UK audience, including ‘The Art of Beer’ and beer style focused ‘The 6-Pack,’ as well as longer-form articles by Beaumont, Ontario Craft Beer Guide co-author Jordan St. John and others. Issue #15 can be read online now.
