Crew. Fitz's Cold Beer

Proudly owned by John Fitzpatrick, (more commonly recognized as “Otis Fitz”), Fitz’s Cold Beer was the only local beer store for 44 years. Originally known as ‘Brewer’s Retail’, Fitz began working here at a young age before taking the business over in the 1970s and establishing it as a local landmark in the west end.

Over the years, Fitz’s Cold Beer gained a very loyal clientele, who not only supported the business but came to respect and admire Fitz and his staff for their relentless humour, storytelling, and customer service received at each visit. Fitz always said, “They come for the beer but stay for the jokes." Fitz passed away on May 26, 2021, at the age of 66, after a courageous battle with cancer. Fitz had no hesitation in making frequent donations to the many worthy causes, locally or worldwide. It is with his heart and generosity in mind that a portion of the proceeds made from each sale of the Fitz's Cold Beer t-shirt will go toward Cancer Care.
