The Avling Burger Box is a locally sourced bundle offered by the Toronto-based craft kitchen and brewery. Located in Toronto's Leslieville neighbourhood, Avling "aims to create exceptional and experimental beer, food and experiences that showcase Canadian flavors and locally farmed ingredients" with beers that are described "as seasonal as the ingredients that go into them."
In addition to offering convenient beer delivery options during COVID-19, Avling is also selling pantry items on its website along with farm-to-table bundles like the Avling Burger Box. The box consists of 4 100% beef patties that are ready to grill and locally sourced from Enright Cattle Co. in Tweed, Ontario. Each bundle also includes 4 house-made burger buns, a 250ml package of Fancy sauce and a pack of sliced cheese and pickles.
