Bellwoods Brewery is a Toronto craft brewery founded in April 2012 by Luke Pestl and Mike Clark, producing lagers, IPAs, sour beers, and a range of alcohol-free options.

Pestl and Clark met while working as brewers at Amsterdam Brewhouse before opening Bellwoods as a small brewpub in the west end of Toronto. The name comes from the nearby Trinity-Bellwoods park. The brewery has since expanded to include two retail shops and a production brewery in North York, giving it three brewing areas across the city and an annual output of around 18,000 hectolitres.

Mixed fermentation runs through the brewery's process, including an early adoption of Brettanomyces, a wild yeast used in sour brewing, and the ageing of beers in foeders, large wooden vessels used for extended conditioning. The main range spans lagers, pale ales, IPAs, and sour beers.

Bellwoods moved into alcohol-free brewing through a collaboration with Greenhouse, beginning with trial versions before building out a fuller AF range. The alcohol-free beers cover IPAs and sour styles, making the range a natural fit for sober-curious drinkers without departing from the fermentation-led approach that runs through the rest of the brewery's output.

The brewery operates brewpubs and bottle shops in Toronto, with pickup available at Ossington Avenue and Hafis Road, and offers free shipping within Ontario.
