The Exchange brews numbered craft beers in Niagara-on-the-Lake's Old Town, from Niagara Fruit Stand IPA (brewed with strawberries, apricots and peaches) and Fiore Italian-style pilsner in 473 ml cans to a gluten-free saison and oak-aged Belgian-style sours such as Flanders Red Reserve and Grand Cru Reserve.
The Exchange's packaged beer (HTS 2203.00.00, "Beer made from malt") can no longer ship to the US: the US import ban on listed Canadian alcohol took effect September 29, 2026, after a 50% Section 338 duty that applied from August 22, 2026. We found no public statement from the brewery about US sales.Source: whitehouse.gov, Sep 8, 2026
You must be of legal drinking age in your province to buy alcohol. Rules on shipping alcohol between provinces vary, so buy from the maker directly or through your provincial liquor store. We only link to makers; nothing is sold on this site.
