from Big Rock’s Facebook page this morning

"It is with great sadness that we report that our founder, Edward McNally, passed away last night. Ed was the driving force behind the creation of Big Rock and his name has been synonymous with our brewery throughout its history. He leaves a legacy larger than life and we will forever be grateful not only for this great company he created, but also for the lasting impression he has left on the lives of the beer drinker. On behalf of Big Rock, our sincere condolences go out to Linda and all of the McNally family."

Founder of one of the first craft breweries in Canada (and North America), this man definitely deserves a place among our craft pioneers, and respect for his philanthropic efforts as well.
