IPA - Fruited
Vested Interest: ves.td 'n.t.est/ a strong personal interest in something because you could get an advantage from it
Pilsner - Other
APR: e pi '(r)/ /e pi 'r/ [singular] the amount of interest a bank charges on money that it lends, calculated for a period of a year (the abbreviation for 'annual percentage rate')
Pale Ale - American

Cider - Sweet
Black currant cider
Lager - Tmavé (Czech Dark)
IPA - American
Evil Corporation Brewing's Initial Public Offering IPA is a robust West Coast Ale typical of the style. It is well balanced leaving a refreshing note on the palate with subtle malt forward and sweet undertones. Brewed with Citra, Crystal and Magnum hops to give it it's distinctive flavour, it is also dry hopped for ten days using the same hop profile even using the Magnum instead of more floral varieties as is the norm.
IPA - White / Wheat
Full bodied and characteristically cloudy with a creamy head. Aromas of orange, coriander and light malts accent and enhance the light pilsner and wheat flavour profile.
IPA - New England / Hazy
Once you get past the citrus aroma, you can expect a juicy overtone from our signature NEIPA. A vivid yellow nectar is only accentuated by its cloudy appearance and the flavours uniquely combine to set the perfect balance between hop and grain. Unlike nepotism which is the scourge of the corporate world, you can rest assured that this beer got to where it is on nothing but merit. Hops: Citra, Galaxy, Mosaic, Amarillo
Pale Ale - American
Our Pale Ale pours a vivid golden colour with a sturdy, effervescent head. The initial sweetness is brought on by the use of caramel malts and balanced by the hop profile. Cascade hops are used to enhance the aroma with elements of citrus and grapefruit shining through.
Porter - American
A full-bodied porter with chocolate/caramel character that is well balanced by a clean bitterness and mildly floral/spicy aroma. A beer that is as delicious as the Ponzi Scheme is devious.
Pilsner - Czech / Bohemian
Sour - Fruited Gose
Lime Gose
Pilsner - German
As a traditional German Pilsner should, this beer has a subtle bitterness that gently nudges you in the tastebuds to let you know it’s still there. Clean, crisp and clear this staple of the European beer drinker finally comes to EvilCorp. There is no better example of someone who exemplifies all attempts to shatter the Glass Ceiling as our founder, Melanie Jackson, nee Glas. It seemed appropriate to lend her family name to a beer worthy of her reputation.
IPA - American
Speak to anyone in business (or government), and they’ll say that a Monopoly is never a good thing. However, a Monhopoly is entirely different. We don’t want to possess or control the beer market, that would be crazy. We merely wish to ‘transition competitors’ out of the market and ‘compassionately govern’ every aspect of the industry. Evil Corporation feels that the best way to an absolute Monhopoly is to produce such fantastic beer that consumers simply won’t have a choice but to consume our delicious take on a hop-laden West Coast IPA.
Sour - Fruited
Churchill coined the term, ‘Sum of All Fears.’ He posited that no matter how brave people are, when brought together and stripped of their roles, what remains is a shared human experience, often characterized by fear and vulnerability. Our Plum Sour comes with no sense of foreboding. The aroma, a fusion of ripe plums and tartness, lures you in but gives way to a sweet aftertaste that only real fruit gives you. This isn’t just a beer but a journey where every sip confronts the ‘sum of all fears’ with a defiant taste of resilience. ‘Plum of All Fears’ isn’t just a plum sour - it's a testament to facing the unknown with a bold spirit and toasting fears we conquer with each daring gulp.
IPA - Brut
Brutality: bru'tælti/ violent and cruel behaviour; the fact of being violent and cruel.
Porter - Coffee
Just like a diamond or the sweet caffeinated nectar from the coffee bean, it takes enormous pressure and, sometimes in life, strife to distill the very best into something extraordinary. Our Quaffee Ale, brewed with our friends at Calgary Heritage Roasting Company, is the perfect tribute to one of our founders, Quan Ly. Quan was born in an Indonesian refugee camp before moving to Canada with his family. The result of that hardship is the rare embodiment of things that do not surrender to pressure and adversity but thrive on it to elevate themselves and everyone around them. We all grab a morning cup o’ joe to give us the energy, drive and focus we need to get through the day. If there are three words in the dictionary more suitable to describe Quan than those, we haven’t read them yet.
Blonde / Golden Ale - Other
Carolina reaper, very spicy, served in small quantities

With a street-side patio and dog-friendly amenities, Four Dogs Brewing Company is more than a brewery - it's a haven for both humans and their beloved pups.
Micro Brewery
Lager - American
Light clean lager with hints of salt and lime. Aye Carumba!! Elvis was a rescue mutt originally from Mexico. Full of energy and a spark for life. Always put a smile on my face with his antics. Salty and spunky, but he was also a cool and easy going boy. He lived to 13 and passed eventually from a brain tumour. His howl to certain songs on the radio still makes me smile to this day.
Pilsner - German
A German style pils. Very approachable lager style beer with a subdued hop profile. Soft, clear, crisp and zesty.
Stout - English
Large and thick and rich and sweet. Roasted and full bodied stout.
Pale Ale - American
Seasonal Pale Ale
IPA - Other

One of our many regular pups that visits us at the tap room, rescued from the streets of Dallas. This sweet boy had a tough start to life, but is now such a gentle and kind old soul. Say hi when you see him in the taproom.

IPA - New England / Hazy
Made with the finest Canadian Barley Malt, Wheat Malt and Oats. 15.2 oP. 6.5% Vol Alc. (Strong Beer). Hops used: Citra, Galaxy, Amarillo. Brewing Style: Sort of an American IPA with attributes as described in the short product description. Pairs good with: Roast Chicken, Tacos, Burger or foods with a strong flavor as a balance for the fruity and hoppy notes. It can also act as a palate cleanser. Our NEIPA is characterized by big, juicy hoppiness (without bitterness), refreshing fruity flavors (without any actual fruit), and a smooth, creamy mouthfeel.
IPA - American
If you like a traditional West Coast IPA with a bold, hoppy aroma, high bitterness, and citrus and pine flavours, then you’re in the right place. Wavelength has all that and more! You’ll love the healthy 70 IBU of bitterness from hops like Falconers Flight, Centennial and Cascade, and the subtle complimentary acidic notes from lemon and pine.
Rauchbier
A German specialty, this brew gets its smoky aroma from malt dried over an open flame. Meta Rauchbier is a smooth and amber brew, moderately hopped to perfectly balance the smoky aroma, which amplifies the feeling of sitting around an open fire. That's why it's the ideal beer for camping and summer evenings in backyard.
IPA - Imperial / Double
Our double IPA or DIPA is like your favourite IPA on steroids. Meta's Dynamic DIPA delivers a serious hop punch packed with strong and layered flavours from both Old and New World hops. The additional malt and oats provide distinctive toasted tones, caramel flavour and smoothness. Strong flavours and higher-than-average alcohol content will make this DIPA your new favourite.
Stout - American
This delicious creation has a range of luscious flavors on the dark end of the spectrum. Deep, rich and filled with characteristics of chocolate, coffee and hints of licorice, it's also silky and smooth in mouthfeel like your daily oatmeal. Carefully medium-hopped to preserve the roasted taste we like so much about stout.
Honey Beer
This easy drinking Ale gets its name from the natural shape of a honeycomb and its taste from nature: hints of carefully selected Albertan honey, caramel roasted hazelnut and a mild malt note that combines perfectly with the moderate to light hoppiness. This amber/brown beauty was brewed to be enjoyed any day with co-workers or the whole hive.
Wheat Beer - Witbier / Blanche
A perfect summer beer! Golden, with a smooth head, this brew highlights the wheat and barley malt flavours and carefully chosen hops create a perfect balance. Slightly higher carbonation gives our Canadian Wheat Ale the ideal refreshment factor for hot summer days. Best results when consumed under a blue sky.
Pilsner - Czech / Bohemian
Our Cryogenic Czech-Style Pilsner is brewed in traditional style and pays tribute to this classic lager beer style with bottom-fermenting yeast, lower fermenting temperature, and a more subtle flavor profile. Its golden color, subtle malty sweetness and distinctive Saaz hop aroma make it a pleasure to drink all year round, no matter where you're from.
Lager - American Light
Kinetic Lager is a refreshing, light-bodied golden lager with a fine balance between malt sweetness and hop bitterness. Designed for days when just one won’t do, Kinetic Lager is clean, simple and very crushable.
Lager - Strong
Our Black Buck is a very drinkable/crushable Strong Beer that gives you enjoyment and smoothness of a “normal” brewed Lager with the strength of a “Black Buck”. Alc 6.2%, Colour light, IBU 17, and Malt light.
Lager - American Light
Meta’s Xpress Lager can be easily compared with most of the best Craft Lagers around. With one significant difference: Good things don’t need to be expensive. Alc 5.0%, Colour light, IBU 15, and Malt light.
Lager - American
Smooth Lager, no nasty aftertaste typical of cheap brews.

Surely to keep you floating above the clouds to play in the sun all summer long.

Micro Brewery
IPA - Triple
Collaboration with Eighty-Eight Brewing.
This beer fuses Eighty-Eight's hoppy beer mastery and Tailgunner's passion for traditional brewing techniques, in order to create what we think might be the world's first double decocted double dry-hopped triple IPA. Boasting a double decoction mash and the highest hopping rate ever attempted at Tailgunner, we kept the grain bill simple and anchored this beer with a classic hop blend of Columbus, Centennial, and Simcoe added at many points during the brewing process. Enjoy in moderation!
Kölsch
Drawing on our friend Brandon's German brewing experience, we collaborated with Avling Brewery to update our beloved Kölsch-inspired recipe. Featuring 100% Bavarian ingredients and a single decoction mash, The Fix is naturally carbonated, unfined/unfiltered, and lagered for eight weeks. Danke, Braumeister!
Lager - Pale
To celebrate our 1st Birthday, we brewed up a special and sessionable lager. Triple Decocted, hopped with halcyon Saaz. This one is delicate and refreshing with notes of dried chamomile flower.
Sour - Fruited
Peach Lemonade Sour - low in ABV but huge in flavour. This Bobby Sox is taste of summer, in a glass!
Pilsner - Czech / Bohemian
Being only the second triple decocted Czech Pilsner available in Canada, it is the pinnacle evolution for our flagship Linton Stephenson Czech Pilsner. We honestly could not be happier with the final product and know you will feel the same way. This is an absolute must for any beer lover!
Sour - Fruited
A twist on a classic Berliner Weisse with hibiscus flowers added to the whirlpool, strawberries during fermentation, and Loomi limes during conditioning. Jammy, tart, and floral with a hint of salinity.
IPA - American
Inspired by the bitter, balanced, and drinkable hoppy beers of the American Midwest, this IPA uses 100% Alberta grains and 100% Centennial hops from the Pacific NW to create a truly sessionable.
Pilsner - Other
Same name different beer! Double decoted brewed with whole cone cascade hops. mellow, grapefruit and cedar notes
IPA - New England / Hazy
This latest version of S.O.S. is a thick and juicy delight. Heaps of Citra bring all the juicy notes to the party while Galaxy balances the sweetness with a subtle grassy bite. It’s like you dropped your orange popsicle into grass clippings and continued to eat it without missing a beat, in the best possible way.
Pilsner - Other
Superior pilsen malt, collab with Canada Malting Co.
Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
Brewed with North American Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe hops.
IPA - New England / Hazy
Brewed and dry hopped entirely with Nelson Sauvin hops from Clayton Hop Farms in New Zealand
Lager - Svetlé (Czech Pale)
Sour - Other
We kettle soured this beer with our favourite strain of lactobacillus before fermenting it with our house ale yeast. Then we dry-hopped it with lots of Citra. It reminds us of the best and freshest white grapefruit juice we have ever had. Sometimes simplicity is best ;)
Pilsner - Other
Brewed with 100% French malted barley and whole cone hops from Alsace
IPA - New England / Hazy
Collaboration with Collective - A Craft Beer Shop
Tailgunner hooked up Collective with an extra special hazy IPA for their 5th Anniversary. It’s thick and juicy with next-to-zero bitterness. Juice B.O.M.B.
Beware: it goes down dangerously smooth for 7.5%.
Cheers to 5 Years!
Wheat Beer - Hefeweizen
Collaboration between Tailgunner and Blind Enthusiasm.
Triple Decocted Hefeweizen, traditional banana and clove notes. Huge flavour!
Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
Pale Ale - English
Sitting Time is our tribute to the often-overlooked English Pale Ale. We used 100% raw materials from the UK, a single decoction mash, and “casked” the beer in tank for natural carbonation.
Altbier - Traditional
An obscure malt-forward beer style from Düsseldorf, Altbier (alt means "old") shares lineage with its cousin the Kölsch in that it is fermented warm with ale yeast before being conditioned cold like a lager. Our Altbier uses 100% Bavarian ingredients, is unfined/unfiltered, naturally carbonated, and lagered for eight weeks.
IPA - New England / Hazy
S.O.S. has been reborn! Playing with new hop combinations to keep this IPA fresh, our new brewer Devin chose Galaxy and Columbus hops to create one heck of a tropical fruit salad explosion with hints of orange juice, no pulp.
Sour - Fruited
For the second entry in our fruited kettle sour series, we added an obscene amount of Canadian cherries during fermentation before conditioning the beer with whole Grade A Madagascar Bourbon vanilla beans.
Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
A throwback to the first wave of hazy hoppy beers that had malt structure and gentle bitterness. Brewed with 100% Alberta grains and a blend of four classic hops from the Pacific Northwest. Dame Dorthey represents the spirit of a generation that came together when it mattered most and united in a selfless effort. Here's to community, to perseverance, and to our Dame Dorthey.
Lager - Helles
Inspired by the balanced lagers of Southern Germany, our Munich Helles Lager proudly uses 100% Bohemian ingredients, natural carbonation, and a proper cold conditioning phase.
Lager - Dark
A creamy, roasty, and smooth Czech-style dark lager. Brewed with soft water, a single decoction mash, and 100% Bohemian ingredients. In 1941, Canada's largest ammunition facility was constructed in Ajax, Ontario as part of the war effort in World War Two. This facility employed more than 7000 women from across Canada with a singular, unified mission-- to provide the fathers, husbands, and sons of the nation with enough ammunition to triumph over evil and ultimately return home. The women of Ajax worked tirelessly within this factory for years and produced over 40 million shells during the war effort to ensure their mission was a success.

Stout - Other
Mid-winter is here, and we've enjoyed all the delicious, heavy dark brews that are released, but we need a little break. Our Lunch Break Stout is light and approachable with a mild peanut butter nose and flavour. Weighing in at 4.5%, this is an easy brew for a relaxing afternoon or even on a lunch break... but you might want to check with the boss first.
Bitter - Extra Special / Strong (ESB)
Haven't you always wanted to explore the universe? While we wait for interstellar transport, give your taste buds the gift of the Extra-Terrestrial with this inaugural brew from 948 Brewing Company.

Mild to medium sweet on the palate which transitions to a medium bitter hop finish.

As the heat starts to build you realize you should have packed sunscreen for this trip. Not uncomfortable and yet unforgettable... Jalapeno. The heat begins to fade, that California Sunburn is going to keep you coming back every time.
Stout - English
You don't have to be a member of the peerage to enjoy Lord Grey's Stout. Let the soft taste walk with you along the cobblestones of London as you enter the public house, join a game of darts, and hold on to that pint. We've added a hefty dose of the house blend Earl Grey tea from Sorso Espresso & Wine Bar to add to the aromatics and flavour in this dark brew. Guaranteed not to get you lost in the fog.
Porter - Other
A bounty of coconut aromas mix with chocolate malts in a mound of dark, easy drinking brew. Almond Joy is difficult to use as a descriptor. If there were other coconut candy bars we could think of while writing this we would have mentioned those too. Watch for this delectable brew at a growler bar near you!
Honey Beer
You'll be swarming to the brewery to get your hands on this refreshing and light brew. It really is un-bee-leavable. Honeycomb sweetness that finishes dry. Oh Bee-Hive!

This is Chris, Chris loves IPAs. At 948, well, we love Chris. We've been fortunate to have him as a part of our team for 8 months and he's a heck of a brewer. Chris likes big hoppy IPAs and this one is no exception. Amber malt sweet with a colour to match, it finishes with a big bitter hop flavour. If you're like Chris and like your brews hoppy, then get down to the taproom and grab yourself a pint. Cans and growler fills available as well.

IPA - Rye
This rye IPA grants your palate a smooth rye spice that balances the medium hop finish. The rye carries through the aroma and hides the hop bitterness from your senses. If you wouldn't normally approach an IPA, the time is now. This brew is sure to whisk you away on a magic carpet of flavour to a whole new world.
California Common
Sometimes we all need a helping hand. When two homebrewers in need reached out to the beer community, the community delivered, literally, shipping yeast across the country they couldn't find locally. This beer's roasty nose and deliciously crisp California Common style was crafted by common decency. This brew blends refreshing lager yeast with a malty backbone. They proudly shared their recipe with us for this commercial release so we could share it with you all.
Blonde / Golden Ale - Other
Babs has come off the shelf and into our brewhouse! She's a hard worker and is bringing you a refreshing and smooth Blonde Ale that can be enjoyed by all. This is her house and her rules, so listen up, drink up and get back to work.

Get your claws, fins or paws on it before it vanishes for another year.
IPA - New England / Hazy
Just tap it in. Give it a little tappy. Tap, Tap, Taparoo. Or, take a few steps back and swing hard. We've added an insane amount of Idaho Gem to this mega-hoppy New England style IPA. Cotton candy, pineapple, and lemon citrus notes with a bitter finish is sure to make this a hole in one.
Scottish Ale
A cheeky little brew. My Kilt's Wrecked will have your palate pulling flavours of caramel and tobacco. Under the kilt, there's a fling of mild hops and a finish as smooth as, well, you'll see. Named for our friend Robin, we dedicate this brew to all the teachers out there.
Sour - Fruited
There was a team back in the day, an extraordinary team of musical men and women. We'd gather once a week to defend our title. We'd dance and sing and win a bar tab or two. Each of us were unique but when you brought us together we could do great things. This brew is no different. We're bringing together peach, blackberry, a few spices and then souring it all. Get ready for another round of excitement as we present our Blackberry Peach Cobbler Sour!

IPA - New England / Hazy
The recipient of the Last Best IPA Tap Takeover judges choice for 2019 and recognized again for fan favourite in 2020! This hazy style IPA features our favourite Australian hops and has a medium-full body thanks to a low attenuating dry yeast and a malt bill packed with wheat, flaked wheat and flaked oats. Namesake has big notes of juicy citrus, tropical fruit, stone fruit and piny resiny goodness. All of our beers are made with re-mineralized RO water, giving us the ability to accentuate flavours and mouthfeel true-to-style, in this case we use a specific ratio of chloride to sulfate to accentuate body versus hop sharpness and dryness.
Fruit Beer
This hazy wheat beer is naturally carbonated thanks to the addition of 250kg of delicious raspberries and strawberries during fermentation. Fresh jam aroma and a berry fresh flavour, a little sour, a little tart. Just a simple wheat beer to pair with smokin’ hot summers in the Drumheller valley.
Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
The younger sibling to our award winning “Namesake” Hazy IPA, this juicy pale ale has big citrusy notes of peach, pineapple, orange and melon. It's an easy drinker with medium body and gentle lingering bitterness.

Lager - Vienna
A sloth and flavourful lager with balanced notes of bread crust, baked goods, toffee and caramel. All of our beers are made with re-mineralized RO water, giving us the ability to accentuate flavours and mouthfeel true-to-style, in this case a balanced soft water profile.

Pale Ale - English
This smash is a delicate dance between Alberta two row and El Dorado hops. We combined the perfect amount of mango making it bright on the nose and elegant in flavour. With hints of pineapple, candy, and mango showcased by El Dorado, the malt allows the mango addition to perfectly combine with the hops. So you see, it does take two-row to mango.
Pale Ale - American
This beer was created for the family and friends of Sgt. Andrew Harnett who lost his life in the line of duty on the night of Dec 31, 2020. The logo was created by Sgt. Harnett for the District 5 softball team to use during the Rob Vanderwiel Memorial Softball Tournament. This logo incorporates the "d" and "5" representing the district which Sgt. Harnett served and loved working, both as a Constable and more recently as a Sergeant. The lower part of the logo incorporated the "circle", signifying Saddletown Circle, where the current district 5 office is located. The colours are that of the Toronto Blue Jays, which is Canada's only baseball team, a sport Sgt. Harnett enjoyed watching and having a beer over, with friends. Sgt. Harnett will never be forgotten and will always remain in the hearts of his friends and family. This logo is a small piece that will be worn by many and will be worn knowing it was created by a proud hero.
IPA - White / Wheat
This is a fun combination of a juicy NEIPA and Witbier. Dry hopped with Mandarina Bavaria and Amarillo, this beer is bright with tangerine, orange peel, and mandarin. The hazy orange colour of this beer makes it look as good as it tastes. In honour of all women, this beer is fun, bright, and ‘quick witted.’
IPA - White / Wheat
Winter is coming...but not so fast. Our revamped white IPA has bright notes of spice, clove, and grapefruit, perfect for the upcoming fall. Its hazy hopped character boasts tangerine, grapefruit, and a delicate orange bitterness. See? Frost warnings aren't that bad after all.
Farmhouse Ale - Saison
Welcome to summer. We packed this Lemon Raspber-EH beer with flavours of fresh raspberries, zesty lemon, and fruity notes from the saison yeast. Pink in colour, dry, and highly carbonated, this beer gives a whole new meaning to patio sipper. Let's celebrate Canada, eh?!
IPA - American
Not everyone knows what they want in an IPA beer, so we created the Sea Buckthorn IPA that has a little something for everyone. The original recipe used Sea Buckthorn berries that were grown in Balzac. They are bright orange in color and tart on the tongue. When you first pour this Ale, through the eyes you will see a straw-like yellow in color. To the nose, you'll breathe in a hint of passionfruit and citrus notes. But more importantly, when you taste it on the tongue you'll gather the ease of Citra hops, the light tangy acidity from the rind of the berry as well as the stem, and a heavy feeling of refresh at the end. Since the berry thrives in all seasons this beer is perfect for summer AND winter.
Red Ale - Irish
An Irish Red we are proud to have created with our community. You will sense notes of caramel, and light herbal characteristics from the hops. Slightly sweet with a toasty dry finish. Very true to style and approachable. A great beer for Red and Light beer drinkers alike.
Blonde / Golden Ale - Other
This Blonde Ale is a beautiful compliment to our beer family. Not only does it bring a different group of flavors to your palette but it has a full straw-like color that makes your mouth water just by looking at it. It's crisp, tropical, hazy, and juicy. All things you DEFINITELY want in a patio beer or just on a beautiful summer day. You are going to get banana, light spices, and mild honey on your tongue which will be enough for you to want another. Enjoy this one responsibly... It's a beer that will consume you!
Bitter - Best
Don't worry it's not how it sounds. A "BITTER" is a British style of ale that varies in color from gold to dark amber. It can have a great variety of strength, flavor, and appearance from dark amber to a golden summer ale. We do this one on a Nitro tap so it goes down smooth. This specific beer is our cornerstone that ignited the spark, that created the fire, to start the Balzac Craft Brewing Company. If you like the lighter flavored dark beer ... you will LOVE this beer.
Wheat Beer - Other
Welcome to the delicious world of Wheat Ale! This crisp tasting beer has well-balanced citrus flavors with a solid mouthfeel delivered from a strong malt backbone. To the eyes, you are going to see a light golden color that reminds you of sunrise during harvest. Overall this is a really awesome beer that has an effervescent feel to the mouth making it a great post combining or yard mowing drink.
Blonde / Golden Ale - Other
If you are a Lager beer drinker than this is a beer for you. Especially since the Hops taste you notice will be offset by the great malt flavor that follows. When drinking this beer you are going to feel an earthy floral and citrus mix which means that the mouthfeel (the physical response your mouth will get when you drink it) is going to be high. The great news is the ABV in this one is lower which makes it an easy drinking beer. Enjoy!
Brown Ale - English
The Absolute Best. We have designed the tastiest British Brown Ale primarily using malts crafted by Red Shed. This beer has a delicate nuttiness with rich brown sugar notes and a herbal hop character. Its creamy mouthfeel and incredibly smooth finish offer a sensational experience. Destined for greatness, even our own brewery dog approves of this beer!
Porter - English
“Tuxedo” was a black and white Paint roping horse whose heart was as big as his strong frame. He was calm, reliable, and smooth so naturally, we named this Rye Porter after him. As most Rye Porters go, this one is smooth and a fantastic go-to when you’re looking for something reliable to sip on and relax. It pours dark off of the Nitro tap and has a calming cascade that makes your mouth water in anticipation. Enjoy!
Stout - Oatmeal
in·ter·stel·lar /in(t)r'stelr/ occurring or situated between stars This beautiful oatmeal stout boasts with notes of bitter dark chocolate, creamy oats, and fruit character. It’s dark reddish hue alongside its brown head make it an intergalactic experience. We don’t want to brag, but this beer is out of this world.
Cider - Dry
This is a beautiful collab we did with our friend at Sunny Cidery. This Cherry Vanilla Cider will dance on your tongue with hints of citrus and a smooth vanilla finish.
IPA - English
An ode to the traditional IPA that would voyage across to India. Our version focuses on the earthy, floral hops, accompanied by a rich malt body. Perfect for seasoned IPA drinkers or those looking to expand their palate. Same delicious flavour, but without the wait. Grab ahold of your binder twine, this one's a beauty.
Red Ale - Other
This Amber Ale shows a beautiful sunset color. With a smooth mixture of grains, you have a flavor that engages the tongue immediately and then leaves a sweeter mouth sense after you swallow. This is an Ale as reliable as the horse it's named after.
IPA - American
This is our tribute to a traditional West Coast IPA. Featuring Cascade, Centennial, and Chinook, our IPA offers bright citrus notes alongside a smooth resin finish. In true Balzackian fashion, we made this beer easy drinking, balanced, and most likely, a new brewery favourite. Drink this one responsibly!
Pale Ale - English
A slightly hazy, golden coloured pale ale. This dry-hopped pale ale boasts with notes of citrus and fresh-cut grass. The malt backbone is complimented by the galaxy and cascade hops added during the boil and as a dry hop.
Kölsch
Balzac’s most iconic structure is none other than the Balzac Store. It has been the backdrop for movies, hosted Ford commercials, been a hub for conversations over grain prices, and most of all a central place for the community to congregate. Just like the Balzac Store our Corner Store Kolsch Is best enjoyed fresh and in good company. Influenced by traditional Kölsch flavours, Balzac's take on this style is light, refreshing, and packed with flavour. Using noble hops (hops founded in European countries), pilsner and wheat malt grown on the prairies, our take on this classic has a fun Canadian twist.

Despite the dark colour, this beer is delightfully refreshing. Dark chocolate and coffee notes are provided by the roasted malts and the Saison yeast gives it some light fruit and spice characteristics.

Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
Vanaheim is a unique beer, blending a hefeweizen yeast with a NE hop profile creating something truly delicious. With a bright citrus and tropical fruit aroma, the first taste is mild, slightly sweet, supported by a light wheat and rice cracker malt profile. Just when you think that’s all there is, the hops coat the palate with a pleasant and soft bitterness that lingers.
IPA - New England / Hazy
Early in the 21st Century, the Zero Issue Corporation advanced beer evolution into the NEMESIS phase - a beer virtually unparalleled to drink. NEMESIS was superior in aroma and flavor but not equal in clarity, to those that came before. With intense grapefruit, mango, passionfruit and citrus notes and refreshing drinkability, Nemesis ushered in a new order.
Pale Ale - American
You unlock this door with the key of thirst. Beyond it is another dimension - a dimension of subtle caramel malt, a dimension of bright citrus hops, a dimension of balance. You're moving into a land of both aroma and flavor, of things and ideas. You've crossed into.... the MULTIVERSE
Sour - Other
My strength is not in IBU and ABV, that is what the parasites will never understand. A season for all things! A time for Mango and a time for Passionfruit, a time for clean....and a time for sour.
Pilsner - German
Zero Issue created a true to form German – style Pils. Combining earthy, herbal notes from German hops with a subtle malt complexity and clean fermentation.

IPA - Imperial / Double
Pink Boots Collaboration Brew Day 2018 welcomed women from the local beer industry to brew with us for the fourth year in a row! This year's brew is a Double IPA with a big nose and huge taste. We've hopped at every step with Cascade, Palisade, Chinook , Mosaic, Simcoe and Citra for a beer that is worthy of its name. We hope you enjoy drinking it as much as we have enjoyed brewing and canning it for you! A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this beer are used to establish the Pink Boots Bursary. This bursary helps women enrolled in the Olds College Brewmaster & Brewery Operations Management Course.
Cream Ale
Our session-able cream ale is light, refreshing and tries to get along with everybody. This smooth, lightly hopped ale offers beautiful mouthfeel and a golden, crystal clear appearance. It’s a real, refreshing crowd pleaser.
IPA - American
This India Pale Ale is hoppy, bold and citrusy, yet clean and crisp. Higher in alcohol yet still remarkably balanced. These hops don’t smack you in the face, they tempt you to experience their complex profile.
Red Ale - American Amber / Red
This beer is dark red, roasty like coffee, toasty like fresh bread and makes your mouth water for more. We put just enough hops in to remind you what they’re capable of. This ale is medium boded and easy to drink.
Stout - American
Every once in a while a LEGEND comes around and revolutionizes an industry! For craft beer canning that legend is Jamie Gordon! A home-brew shop owner who, back in 1999, handbuilt a small manual canner for home brewers. The rest, as they say, is history! Jamie spent 16 years tirelessly devoted to traveling the globe to install, educate, and help every single craft brewery possible benefit from canning their craft beer! Tool Shed is one of those breweries and is honoured to have called Jamie our friend! We love that Jamie taught his boys, “Stop stealing my beer and learn how to brew it!!” so this stout is for Jamie! In order to mirror that classy, GQ, flat cap wearin’ style of Jamie, this stout is deeply roasty and rich with a surprising presence of hops and a beautiful, smooth, dry finish. If ever a stout were to rock a flat cap like Jamie did, this would be that beer!
IPA - Belgian
"It's how we drink it in Belgium" -Dr. Evil This combination of tropical mosaic and simcoe hops tickles your tastebuds then gives way to a subtle Belgian trappist yeast finish.
Fruit Beer
This refreshing blonde ale perfectly ecapsulates the exotic flavours of passion fruit while not being overly sweet. A crushable patio beer that is sure to please.
Pale Ale - American
If you could thank anyone for the amazing recent explosion of craft breweries opening in our province, who would it be? We'd like to thank Neil Bamford who, along with his amazing partner Tom Corbett, run The Vineyard home-brew shop. Where else does a craft brewing revolution start but at the local home-brew shop? Neil seems to be fuelled by a mission of turning home-brewers into pro-brewers. This one is for Neil. The beer is a sessionable Oatmeal Pale ale utilizing Cascade as a single hop variety which imparts sweet floral citrus aromas of grapefruit and limes balanced with slight spicy pine notes on the palate. At 4.5% with a balanced crisp bitterness, this beer is a PERFECT companion for summer patio session, but then again so is Neil.
Farmhouse Ale - Saison
At Tool Shed we often talk about helping make “A Better Alberta Through Craft Beer!” but what if we could create “A Better Craft Beer Using ONLY ALBERTA!"? Meet our latest creation, #PrairiePride. This beer boasts Alberta barley from Antler Valley Farms as well as Alberta Wheat. It is malted in Alberta at Rahr Malting and Red Shed Malting, hopped with Alberta grown cascade Northern Girl hops, brewed in Alberta with Alberta water and incorporates our very own Alberta wild yeast captured on Keller Farms and cultivated in the Olds College Brewmaster Lab. It is even packaged with our Cask Canning machine which is also proudly made in Alberta! This is our #PrairiePride.
The beer is light and dry! It delivers spicy, wild, saison style notes thanks to the locally captured yeast. The visible wheat haze promises fantastic body and a smooth mouth feel. To learn more about this epic creation please visit www.toolshed.beer. Cheers!
Red Ale - American Amber / Red
Named in honour of a boozy feral pig who started a fight with a cow (true story... http://bit.ly/cowkilla) Our custom made ale for Pig & Duke is an easy drinker with some real character.

This beer is a result of our ongoing beer experiments. The beer is beautiful fruity blonde ale, perfectly married with a slight tartness and freshness from the addition of over 750lb of cranberries. A beautiful red hue will be enough to make you want a pint!
Farmhouse Ale - Saison
Our head brewer, Lisa wanted to make a saison reminiscent of the subtle characteristics of white wine grapes. We used Huell Melon and Hallertau Blanc hops, which impart the fruity notes Lisa was looking for. We've also used Rocky Mountain malt from Red Shed Malting to impart a unique malt flavour. Enjoy!
Pilsner - Czech / Bohemian
Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
On the 50th anniversary of this iconic event, we’ve gathered for the first ever LGBTQ+ industry collaboration in Alberta to release a juicy, sessionable, hazy pale ale. We are celebrating the bravery of Marsha P. Johnson and remembering that Pride started as and continues to be a protest. Boasting a smooth pillowy body, very low bitterness, and a powerful citrus flavour profile from Citra and Mandarina Bavaria hops, you’ll be doing a double take to make sure you didn’t pick out a can of orange juice to accompany you in your Pride celebrations this summer!
Non-Alcoholic Beer - Other
Non-alcoholic patio style beer
Porter - American
We set out to make a porter like no other. A porter that wasn't too sweet but rather somewhat spicy. What better way to add spice than to add a healthy dose of rye malt! You will find this beer to be a great companion to the cooler fall nights in Alberta.

Calgary’s IPA with heaps of citrus flavours. This well-balanced ale leans on the tropical fruit Mosaic hop notes while a floral nose can be detected. Balanced. Fragrant. Robust.

Lager - Pale
Mexican Lager
Brown Ale - American
A dynamic and complex Brown Ale that demonstrates the wide range of flavours that can be achieved using roasted and specialty malts. Expect layers of caramel, bread, biscuit, nuttiness, toffee, and coffee to mingle and emerge as the beer warms. The malt profile is supported by a light residual sweetness that brings fullness to the palate.
Wheat Beer - Other
A classic American-style Wheat Ale. Its light malt and light hop profile make this beer incredibly approachable. Subtle fruit character is produced by the yeast, while the inclusion of wheat in the grain bill contributes additional texture to the mouth-feel.

Pilsner - Czech / Bohemian
Lager - Amber / Red
Amber chai lager
IPA - English
An exploration of how terroir affects flavour in beer. Much like in wine, growing the same fundamental ingredients throughout different regions of the world will yield wildly different results. Cadence features exclusively English malts, hops, and yeast. The resulting beer is slightly sweeter than its American counterpart (Melody), with upfront herbaceous, floral, grassy hop flavours.
Specialty Grain
A collaboration beer between Ol’ Beautiful and Shokunin (Japanese restaurant in Mission). Contains a large portion of rice, which gives it a unique, silky mouthfeel. The most noteworthy part of this beer is the inclusion of SakeKasu, the rice leftover from Sake production, which contributes a boozy, creamy, uptown funk to the beer’s finish. Another approachable easy drinker that pairs very well with Japanese cuisine.
Pale Ale - American
A dry hopped American-style Pale Ale that showcases fresh and aromatic Simcoe, Amarillo, and Cascade hops. Expect an upfront citrus aroma and flavour, which gives way to its resinous, floral undertones. A noticeable malt sweetness adds body to the beer and brings balance the beer’s hop-forward character.
Blonde / Golden Ale - Other
An easy going blonde ale coupled with organic blood orange puree. A beer that combines a crisp blonde base hopped with Mandarina and a healthy dose orange juice tartness. Perfect for long patio sessions or morning brunch.
IPA - American
The quintessential, classic hop forward IPA that all craft beer lovers seek out. Expect flavours of grapefruit, melon, and apricot from the hops, while a subtle toffee-like sweetness from the malt supports the astringent bitterness typical of the style. This is a beer for all IPA lovers and those who cherish the beautiful qualities of hops.
Stout - Other
A robust stout infused with cocoa nibs and vanilla beans. The use of a Belgian Abbey yeast contributes dark stone fruit esters, while a combination of roasted and specialty malts give the beer a jet-black appearance, a tightly knit head, and layers of decadent chocolate, coffee, and caramel flavours.
Lager - Dark
A refreshing dark lager with subtle tones of dark chocolate and toasted caramel, boasting a roasty aroma with a clean lager crispness. Whether paired with a hearty winter meal or a mid summer garden party, this classic caters to any beer drinker.

Nano Brewery
Märzen
A Märzen style lager brewed with real vanilla beans. This beer has a pronounced malty sweet base teeter tottering with a touch of floral, noble hops. The malty base goes on to perform a clown ballet with the vanilla beans resulting in a flavor reminiscent of a birthday cake. An extended lagering process makes this a light drinking session and/or dessert beer. DISCLAIMER: No clowns were harmed in the brewing of CakeFace.
Porter - Coffee
Robust Porter with a dominant roasted malt backbone, brewed with milk sugar, vanilla beans, and cold pressed coffee from Rebel Bean Coffee added in at kegging. With just enough English hops to balance out the beverage, this is like drinking a coffee cake that can give you more than one kind of buzz. Drink it as the sun goes down and again as the sun comes up.
Red Ale - Irish
An unapologetically malt forward Irish Red Ale. This beer takes a sharp detour off the hop highway and focuses instead on the roasted, toasted, sweet, and neat flavors of the malted barley grain. A blend of caramels and roasted barley gives the Red Smashed In a perfect balance of sweetness and roasted kick. There is a fairy dusting of nearly noble English hops sprinkled in as well just so all that flavor didn’t get lonely. See you in Malt-halla!
Farmhouse Ale - Saison
A farmhouse style Saison brewed with Saskatoon berries. The beer has a kiss of spice up front but moves quickly to a sweet and earthy middle with the Saskatoon berries rolling through at the very end. There is a noticeable but not overwhelming Belgian backbone to the brew that brings it all together. This is a perfect pint to drink when taking a break from a hot day chaffing the wheat or mucking the barns.
Blonde / Golden Ale - Other
The quintessential light bodied American...scratch that... Canadian Blonde Ale. Starts with a touch of upfront malt sweetness that flips to a crisp citrusy finish.
Lager - Vienna
A Vienna lager with a crisp conventional base. The beer is focused around a toasted malt center and whispers of floral hop flavor and aroma which parlay into a slight malt sweetness that joins the party at the end. This is a lager that rolls with some flavor to it. It can be a gateway beer for the craft averse or a crushable craft lager for the aficionado who needs to come down off a humulone high.
Fruit Beer
Rumors are true — it's a Skittle Ale with guava and passionfruit!! We've chosen to work with @skippingstoneca foundation on this one who focuses on trans youth issues in YYC!!

A hazy blonde ale with plenty of wheat taste and a tinge of yeast; like fresh baked bread with a tinge of sweetness. Brewed in collaboration with and to celebrate the 100th year anniversary of the Calgary humane society
Cream Ale
Big berry sweetness over a creamy sweet base and a crisp fruity finish. More satisfying than slapping a clown and tastier than a kiss from Willy Wonka while you stick your head in a Lions mouth. As the greatest beer drinkers on earth, Something Creamy Cream Soda Ale will make you want to run away and join the circus.
Blonde / Golden Ale - Other
IPA - New England / Hazy
A Fruit Juice Colada with a fruity hop essence throughout, this beer is sincerely tropic with a loitering coconut memento on the finish. With a killer body to balance the hop flavour and bitterness, crushing a Juuuuuuuuice is like crushing curls with Arnie on the beach.
Pale Ale - American
A peach-infused brew. @cold_garden partnered with @leftoversfoundation to upcycle peaches for the pale ale that would have gone to waste!

IPA - New England / Hazy
Our Golden Strong ale has been heavily dry hopped with Sabro and Idaho 7 to give a tropical coconut flavour. In fact this beer’s hops were only added via dry hop. To balance out the coconut flavour of these hops, real pineapple was added directly to the beer. The finished product dances delicately between a golden ale and a pina colada that you would find on a sunny and sandy beach, which is something we could all go for right now! Includes Origin Prairie Pale malt.

Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
Juicy, hazy, tropical. Big citrus flavor and hop profile with subdued bitterness.
IPA - American
A tropical inspired IPA that is more fun than a rec centre birthday party! This gateway IPA is hopped with juicy, tropical hop varietals -- Amarillo, El Dorado and Ekuanot (Equinox) and finished with a yeast that drives the mango, pineapple and stone fruit flavours.
IPA - New England / Hazy
We harnessed the power of a Norwegian Kveik yeast to ferment this beauty fast and hot. The result is a sexy, hazy golden yellow brew that is a tornado of hops, juice and party. It smells like a boozy tropical fruit salad! Pineapple, papaya and melon flavours dominate with a nice touch of red berry provided by the Barbe Rouge and Mosaic hops.
Sour - Other
Nothing represented order more than locking those notes in your paper folder. This delicious dry hopped sour is about taking the power back. Let loose and pucker up!
IPA - New England / Hazy
If you're not cheating, you're not trying. Our first beer brewed with Phantasm from New Zealand, this IPA uses the thiols from the dried grape skin (Phantasm) to boost the flavour and experience of the El Dorado and Citra hops. Enjoy this low carb hazy and gain an extra life or two!
Stout - Coffee
So Much Coffee! Strong roasted coffee and chocolate with wood on the back end. Sweet but balanced. Moderate to strong bitterness from heavy hop additions and roasted coffee.
Pale Ale - American
U Can't Touch This! Our award-winning (2022 Alberta Beer Awards Gold) American Pale Ale with the prominent flavors of pine, stonefruit and citrus. The subtle bitterness and clean finish make this a ridiculously easy drinking go-to for pretty much anyone
Farmhouse Ale - Saison
It's Complicated. Don’t let the scrunchie fool you, Tiffany likes to let her hair down. Bright pink with a sassy tartness, it's a dance off between our Golden Ale and red wine grapes. The result is a bone dry, crazily crushable, dangerous lover friend.
IPA - New England / Hazy
The latest addition to our core-beer line-up, Hi-Fi, is a Hazy IPA designed for good vibrations and to keep the party at the perfect volume all night long. Over the past 2 years we’ve brewed over 20 small-batch IPAs and Hazy beauties, this one is the culmination of all that learning! It’s got the soft mouthfeel that we’ve been working on with our new water system, the cold whirlpool technique that we’ve been using to keep those grassy flavours at bay, plus a blend of Azacca, Mosaic and Cashmere hops to keep the bitterness low and the juiciness high! The experimenting and tinkering has been paying off and we can say this Hazy IPA hit all the right notes.
Sour - Fruited
Triple Berry Milkshake Sour IPA. Brewed with milk sugar and then soured with various lacto strains, we added equal parts raspberry, blackberry and blueberry puree to the fermentation and the dry hopped heavily with Idaho 7.
IPA - Imperial / Double
This recipe was born out of '88 love for humongous West Coast IPA’s. Its forward, aggressive and maybe even a bit brash. This is the bad influence. Go for it! What’s the worst that could happen…
IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
Nearly two hundred pounds of locally sourced Alberta honey were used to create the backbone of this Honey Hazy Double IPA. Add in some amazing specialty malt from our good friends at Origin Malting and you have yourself a punchy, creamy and undeniably memorable jooos bomb! Mango, Orange and of course honey hit you up front and as you play it fades to just the right amount of sweet with low bitterness, and an ultra creamy mouth feel. This beer is magic and one we are hyper excited to share. Best suited for adventures, alternate worlds & hidden treasure, this whistle is going to take you places!
IPA - New England / Hazy
Open this brew and the room will be filled with heavy mango, citrus and a touch of pine! Power Wheels drinks (too) easy, ending with a nice soft finish. Brewed with the hard to procure Mosaic INCOGNITO (CO2 extracted hop resin), it's meant to solve the age old problem of how to jam in even more hop flavor without the typical pitfalls of going a wee bit too far, notably hop burn or grassy flavors. Power Wheels, a hilariously hopped all Mosaic Hazy IPA with INCOGNITO, T90 and cryo Mosaic used through the entire process and then heavily dry hopped with Mosaic and cryo Mosaic. Should we say Mosaic one more time. MOSAIC!!
Sour - Fruited
Sangria Sour! Collab with Camp Brand Goods.
IPA - New England / Hazy
Dial Up has long been a staff favourite for its more balanced and sessionable approach. It has a slightly tweaked malt bill from our usual hazy stash, it’s more medium bodied, and it has perfect balance between bitter and sweet. Hopped at 10g/L with Hallertau Blanc, El Dorado and Cascade it has amazing aromas of passionfruit, pear and pineapple, but finishes heavy on the citrus. In short, it’s lovely and worth the wait.
IPA - New England / Hazy
For Leisure Center we've used multiple types of hop technologies with several hopping techniques to achieve very high dry hopping rates, huge aromas, and juicy flavors while minimizing grassy notes and vegetal flavors. Technically, this hopping rate would be 3x bigger than anything we've done yet! 30 grams per liter!! This beer uses the same water profile from Pillow Talk and even creamier malt bill with several different varieties of oats. Then cometh the hops! We started with heavy whirlpool additions of Ekuanot Incognito, Citra Incognito, and Citra Cryo and after the whirlpool, we performed a DIP hop which is essentially steeping the hops before pushing into the fermenter.
IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
When @estbrew and @eightyeightbrewco get together, we pull out all the stops. That means using a brand-new Reverse Osmosis water system, a Hop Egg to dry-hop under pressure, and an old German method of naturally carbonating beer called Spunding! Plus we got to combine the brewing minds behind all your favourite beers to create a recipe worthy of this momentous collaboration! Just What I Needed might actually be just what you need! An Imperial Hazy IPA with a soft, creamy body and pumped full of Cryo Pop and Citra, Citra Cryo and Citra Incognito hops. Your nose will catch the pineapple, mango, and candy right before your tongue grabs the citrus fruits and sweetness It sticky, bitter, sweet and big, the way it should be!
IPA - Triple
Wet Bandits features a very large classic west coast back bone that is treated with loads of late kettle additions of Galaxy, Cryo Amarillo, and Cryo Mosaic. We upped the dry hop ever so slightly from previous Sticky iterations up to 15g/L with same combo which added to the rather forward aroma in the best way! Think extremely well balanced, its dank, oily, & juicy, with bright citrus, passion fruit and red berry notes. More fun than a van ride with the Kenosha Kickers, it’s a pleasure to behold and yes at 10%, you will feel it.
Stout - Imperial / Double Pastry
Thank your brewers for this one as “Pick Me Up” was one helluva labour of love. To achieve max stout and pack in as much flavour as physically possible, we actually needed to brew the beer twice using 5 different malts, loads of flaked oats and then over 15 kg of lady fingers (note from brewers: Do you know how god damn light a lady finger is!!) This big grain bill provides a huge sweet body and layers of roasty flavours. After the mash, we added milk sugar and boiled the wort for over 2 hours, which helps to caramelize the sugars and create a richer, thicker bee
IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
Similar to Night Gallery, this beer uses a blend of Citra, Simcoe and Ekuanot hops, but in the case of Double Night Gallery we we also layered in incognito hops, cyro hops, dip hopping and double dry hopping to push the bitterness wayyyy down and the aromatics to legendary status. All your familiar friends are there; grapefruit, mandarin, pine, cotton candy, and peach, but if you can believe it they are somehow sexier than ever before!
Pilsner - Other
This Pils is a little nod to those dad beers of the 80’s, but tuned up to be extra crisp and extremely crushable! Brewed with 100% pilsner malt, dry hopped Italian style with Hallertau Blanc / Hallertau Mittelfrueh and fermented on a Northern German yeast to finish as crisp and dry as possible. This beer is ultra-refreshing with a super soft bitterness.
IPA - American
Take your foot off the gas and engage, Cruise Control! Let this big bad westie wash over you with it's crisp bitterness and light body.
IPA - New England / Hazy
Our first of five birthday beers. Smoother, softer, hoppier with an ultra-light haze.
Barleywine - American
Fig Newton Barley Wine aged on American oak and fresh figs, adding layers of complexity and fruitiness.
Stout - Imperial / Double Pastry
Brewed in collaboration with Beaumont’s very own Chartier,this ain't just any old stout, we pulled out all the tricks and then some! Starting with a softer than usual water profile we added loads of flaked oats, caramelized sugar and milk sugar to an already very chocolate heavy malt bill to mimic the velvety brownie base. To that we added cocoa nibs, salt, maple syrup, maple syrup whiskey, pecans, and Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla! We finished this beer with one (maybe 5) more maple syrup kiss. It easily one of our most complex beers to date, but honestly we have just been enjoying this one for the nice warm hug that it is.

Lager - Dark
Black Lager A German-style dark lager with moderate malt character, somewhere between the malt character of an American dark lager and a Munich dunkel. It is the darkest and often the most roasty of the dark lager styles. While the roast flavor is more apparent in this dark lager than others, it is still not the intense roast, burnt, or acrid flavor that you often find in stouts and some porters.

This is a beer that embodies adventure. A departure from the classic IPA, it has a deep red colour from Alberta’s world class barley, balanced by a notorious line up of hops. All this packaged in a beer designed for the drinker who has their eyes on the summit.
Stout - Milk / Sweet
Last call, first chair is this beers mantra and it can help on both ends of that fun. An aggressive cold side addition of whole bean coffee, heaps of milk sugar and Red Shed’s roasted barley bury taste buds under a turbid melange of excellence. All this packed into a super sessionable ABV that can help dig up fun on any day off.

Mt. Massive is made for sipping slow.
IPA - Imperial / Double
Dank and piney with notes of pithy grapefruit and tangy lemon. This traditional West Coast IPA has a dry and bitter finish and a bright amber appearance. A strong malt backbone is softened with bright hop aroma. Scenic Route drinks like a walk in the woods.
IPA - Other
West coast ipa
Stout - Pastry
Flavours of rich espresso and roasted malt are subdued by delicately salted caramel and toffee. With just a hint of chocolate fudge, hazelnut and vanilla this brew is intense and exciting like the early days of a love story without the drama or heart-break.
Sour - Fruited
Raspberry mint sour
IPA - New England / Hazy
Bright and aromatic thanks to the fast fermenting Laerdal Kviek yeast from Norway, which is known for its uncanny ability to impart bold tropical flavours. Swift Hours NEIPA has a light malt backbone and a soft & delicate mouth-feel, accentuated by punchy notes of pineapple. It gently transitions us into the next season of NEIPAs and softens the blow as we head into cooler and shorter days.
Sour - Fruited
An imperial sour fermented with an abundance of plums, this winter sour creates a harmony of stone fruit and just enough tang. Tart yet rich and jammy. The higher ABV of this imperial sour will warm you from the inside out.
IPA - New England / Hazy
This heavily fruited NEIPA with mango is laced with habanero peppers, creating a bold and tropical take on the Hazy IPA. We took two of our favourite Central American ingredients and blended an exceptional amount of each into one of our favourite North American beer styles. The result is spicy and sweet with tangy mango to finish.

IPA - Cold
Cold West Cold IPA is dry, hoppy, crisp & clean, cold fermented with lager yeast and dry hopped west coast-style with Simcoe, Citra, and Centennial. We used pilsner malt and flaked rice to give it that nice, light body *chef’s kiss*.
Wait, so it’s a lager? But it’s also an IPA? And it is dry and crisp, but also fruity and hoppy? The answer is “yes!” to all those very pertinent questions, thanks for asking. And for your information, it is also deadly delicious!
This is our second collaboration with our pals at Kilter Brewing in Winnipeg. They make killer beer and are wonderful people – we’re lucky to have them in our lives.
Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
This Manchester mash-up is one for the books!
In celebration of YYC Neighbour Day 2024. On June 15, the cuties at Cabin and Born collaborated on their FOURTH Neighbour Day beer, and by golly, by gosh, they’ve definitely cracked it this time.
When two good things come together, they become something great. Super Cutie takes the very best of two flagship beers - Super Saturation Hazy Pale Ale by Cabin and Hi Cutie Raspberry & Mint Wheat Ale by Born. It’s hazy and bursting with tropical fruit notes, punctuated by the bright flavours and aromas of fresh raspberries and brought together with a rich, full-bodied wheat base.
Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
We have jammed all the flavours and aromas we possibly could - and then some - into our Hazy Pale Ale. Red wheat and oats provide a soft, pillowy body and silky mouthfeel. With a maelstrom of tropical hop flavours and aromas from out-of-this-world dosing of new world hops - Simcoe, Citra and Mosaic - this hazy beer will fill your heart and saturate your senses.
Malt: Pils, Golden Promise, Red Wheat, Oats
Hops: Citra, Simcoe, Mosaic
Yeast: Escarpment Foggy London
IPA - American
Our take on the classic northwest American IPA shuns the heavy caramel and resin notes typically found in this style for something more refined and unique. Sunshine Rain has been brewed to be balanced, lively, fresh and dry, but doesn’t hold back with an aggressive dank and tropical hop punch.
Hops: Pahto, Citra, Simcoe, Mosaic, Centennial, Loral
Malt: CMC 2 Row, Red Shed Kananaskis, Carafoam, Crystal Light
Yeast: Wyeast 1056 American Ale
Pale Ale - American
Retrospectrum Pale Ale is easy enough to drink every day, yet complex enough to challenge your taste buds every time.
Perfectly balanced with a complex malt body, our hop-forward take on the classic American Pale Ale is exploding with tropical fruit and citrus aromas and flavours, thanks to generous late additions of Citra and Amarillo hops.
Hops: Pahto, Citra, Amarillo, Centennial
Malt: CMC 2 Row, Wheat, Red Shed Rocky Mountain & Biscuit, Carafoam
Yeast: Wyeast 1056 American Ale
IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
Just like Super Saturation but even more super! More hops, more malt, more haze, more heft, more mmmmmmm. Look up juicy in the dictionary and you’ll find this beer.
Pilsner - German
Luminosity German Pils is the antidote to the year that was. It’s a delicious, easy-drinking lager crafted in the German brewing tradition - one defined by balance, quality ingredients and drinkability.
We let the ingredients tell the story: 100% German Best Pils malt, a Weihenstephan yeast strain with light aromas and clean flavours and a duo of noble European hops (Hallertauer Mittelfruh and Czech Saaz)
It’s crisp, dry and has long-lasting bready malt notes. You’ll notice delightful spicy and floral aromas and a low to medium bitterness that slowly builds as you drink. Hold it to the light and you’ll see the most glorious, gentle golden hue. You’ll want the luminous light to wash over you like a baptism of hope, but don’t linger too long – after all, this is a beer made for drinking.
Malt: CMC Euro-Pils
Hops: Pahto, Hallertauer Mittelfruh, Saaz
Yeast: Fermentis W34/70
IPA - Triple New England / Hazy
How saturated in aroma and flavour can one beer be? We found ourselves pondering that exact question with our good friends at Collective Craft Beer Shop and decided to find out.
To build a big beer, you need wheat, lots of it. And oats, boatloads. Then all the pils malt and flaked barley you can get your hands on. But your beer can’t be totally saturated until you’ve overflown the kettle with as many hops as you can muster.
For this beer, we used Yakima Chief's Cryo Pop Hop Blend, a hop medley of the most delicious sticky compounds, cryogenically frozen to extract all that concentrated lupulin - the aromatic stuff that makes Saturation beers smell so damned saturated. You’ll get mind-boggling notes of stone fruit, citrus and tropical fruit and as the name suggests, the aroma truly pops from the glass.
And for an extra pop of colour, we opted for Summit Labels’ new fluorescent ink labels, which are vibrant during the day, but really come alive at night under a black light.
We’re totally proud – and a little intimidated if we’re being honest – to present Total Saturation Triple NEIPA, our biggest, boldest, most aromatic and flavourful hazy beer to date. It’s a ten percenter that drinks like a sixer, with a texture as fluffy as cotton ball clouds and aromas that will waft over you for an eternity.
How saturated in aroma and flavour can one beer be? The answer is Total Saturation.
Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
Mild - Other
English mild ale is a throwback to a more simple time where people knew who they voted for and why, saw work as a wage rather than a lifestyle, and who chose their beer like they supported their sports team - because it was what you did and it wasn’t worth fussing over.
Simple Pleasures is what we drink to take life back a notch or two. There’s a ton of flavour for a light beer, with notes of light chocolate, biscuit, nuttiness, dried fruit – raisin, plum especially – and pours a delightful mahogany colour.
No pretension. No gimmicks. Just a refreshing, flavourful malt-accented beer that is readily suited to drinking in quantity (and at just 3.8% it’s perfect for having a few).
Stout - Imperial / Double
Say hello to Luna & Fuego’s little cousin…
Just like our barrel-aged Luna & Fuego, we started with a whopping imperial stout with cocoa, cinnamon and vanilla, then spiked it with a trio of chilies – sweet ancho, tangy guajillo and smoky chipotle. We’ve transferred a bunch of this beer to tequila barrels for a long sleep (see you in winter Luna & Fuego V2!) but for now you are in good company with Fuego - it’s unoaked, unaged, all sorts of fun and ready to drink now.
The beer pours a thick, viscous black. The vanilla and cinnamon lend notes of horchata, while the cocoa and chili marry to create a decadently sweet and lingering spicy flavour.
Did we mention it’s smooth? Ridiculously so.
Pale Ale - American
Ours is definitely a close-knit community, and this delightful collaboration pale ale proves it. Brewers from Cabin, Last Best Brewing and Bale Breaker Brewing in Yakima, WA who all worked together in Calgary once upon a time wanted to get together and brew one more beer. One quick hop across the border for hop harvest and the deal was sealed!
Border Hop West Coast Pale Ale features the wonderfully aromatic experimental hop HBC 586 and “frozen fresh” Mosaic hops from Yakima Chief Hops. This oxymoronically named product sees raw, unkilned whole cone hops plucked from the bine and then flash frozen. This process helps retain the delicate nature of fresh hops, even for those hundreds of kilometres (miles for those south of the border…) from the hop fields. Expect bright notes of mango, nectarine, guava, lychee, and a hint of berry.
This beer is great for sharing with your buds – but if you want some, you’d better hop to it. Like the hop harvest season, this beer is limited and will go quick.
Fruit Beer
Remember when things were built to last? When you knew it was home time by the length of the shadows? When dessert was made with loving hands right there in your kitchen, and smelled and tasted better than anything else?
We’ve rolled out our homage to good times and good taste in our Little Red Wagon - again!
Tart red cherries give the beer a most gorgeous violet glow, while delicate additions of cooking spices and Golden Naked Oats have you swearing you’re smelling fresh-baked pie.
Tart acidity at the end of every mouthfeel balances the rich pie flavours and keeps your taste buds fresh and longing for more.
You could eat pie. Our you could get on the wagon and drink it. Yeah, that’s what we thought.
Welcome aboard! Let's roll.

Sour - Fruited Gose
Now, in winter’s twilight, we dream of warmer climes.
Step into summer with us. Our latest cold season pick-me-up provides a vision of the pleasures that lie at the end of these single digit forecasts.
Summer Dreaming Prickly Pear & Agave Gose is an explosion of colour and flavour. Pouring a vibrant pink, it fires out notes of strawberry, watermelon, candy and salt-rimmed margaritas. It’s tart like a lime, dry like the desert and as refreshing as a plunge into a mountain lake on a blistering day. One sip is all you need - but let’s be honest, you’ll probably want a lot more.
Adios, winter blahs!
IPA - New England / Hazy
We’re swooping in at the speed of sound with our latest haze missile, a juicy harbinger of trans-atmospheric radness that’ll detonate your tastebuds like a flavour explosion.
This pocket rocket of thirst annihilation is called Supersonic Hazy IPA and is, if we may say so ourselves, rather delightful. We’re amping the SUPER in Supersonic, and we’re not even sorry.
Hops? Let’s count ‘em up. Mosaic. Wai-iti. Experimental 17701 from Hopsteiner, El Dorado, Talus, CGX Cashmere. If you think that list is a mouthful, just wait until you taste it! It’s stonefruit to the power of tropical juice, wrapped in a fluffy tri-blend blanket of oats, wheat and barley.
Chances are that as soon as you hear about it it’ll be gone, so don’t mess around friends; get a lock on some today.
Malt: Pilsner, Red Wheat, Flaked Oats, Chit, Golden Naked Oats, White Wheat

‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house… UH OH! Not a single gift tag can be found! Like usual you’ve left gift wrapping until the very last moment! And you’ve just realized you didn’t buy gift tags! And all the shops are shut! And now there’s a good chance little Timmy will end up with Uncle Randy’s bottle of Scotch by mistake! Oh calamity!
Fear not generous gift giver, for Cabin has you covered. Lil’ Helper isn‘t just a delicious, juicy haze bomb of gastrofantastical proportions, but each can doubles as a gift tag sheet with FIVE unique peel-off gift tags. Buy a four-pack? That’s 20 labels, enough for the whole family. Ol’ Saint Nick would be proud.
Extra stress these holidays? Fuggedaboudit. Wrap gifts, stick on labels, and have a pint of deliciousness - because heaven knows we can all use a lil’ help getting through holiday madness with joy in our hearts.
*Cue choirs of angels*

Schwarzbier
Goodbye sunshine, farewell light. As winter’s twilight looms over the land, we have conjured a wickedly good lager to usher in the cold season.
The Gloaming Black Pilsner is a dark beer for darker days, rich in chocolate, coffee and roasted malt notes. But don’t be fooled: this beer has an ethereal light body that makes it eminently refreshing and sessionable, making it the perfect quencher for raking leaves, trick or treating or shovelling snow.
You can’t escape the dark, so you might as well swallow it up - before it gets you first...
IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
Giga-whaaaat? Just how saturated can one beer be?
We’re pushing harder and further and smashing flavour boundaries with giga vigour in our quest to find the perfectly saturated haze bomb.
Giga Saturation Imperial IPA (9.1%) features a ludicrous amount of Nectaron, American Noble Mosaic, Citra and El Dorado hops, all crossing beams to create the mother of all tropical flavour explosions.
With the softest of soft bodies from a melange of wheat, oats and barley, Giga Sat is like a loving embrace for your mouth. And it’s giga delicious!
Fresh is best, haze hounds. Get it while you can.
IPA - Rye
The campfire. The kitchen island. The wireless. The games table. Wherever you gather ‘round to make memories, we have a little something to make those magic moments even better.
We gathered ’round the brewhouse with our new friends from Camp Beer Co. in Langley, B.C., our good buds from Dandy Brewing here in Calgary, and the fine folks from Red Shed Malting in Penhold, AB, to brew up some fall magic.
Gather Round West Coast IPA with Rye blends six hop varietals and a melange of pilsner, pale, Vienna, wheat and rye malts from Red Shed to create a flavour that is pithy and piney, with that perfect amount of earthy, grainy sweetness that reminds you of a crisp afternoon stroll through late season undergrowth.
Bring it in, friends. It’s time to get cozy and enjoy fine beer, great friends, and indelible times.

Sour - Fruited Gose
Sure Footed Sea Buckthorn and Orange Zest Gose is brewed to celebrate International Women’s Day 2022. Cabin’s female staff picked the style, ingredients and name and then came together to turn raw ingredients to beer on brew day – and they did good.
The beer is tart and tangy with notes of coriander, orange, pink grapefruit and honey. The choice of main ingredient is very deliberate. Sea buckthorn is incredibly hardy, withstanding almost anything nature can throw at it, all the while producing the most amazing fruit. Sure footed? It sure is, just like the women in this industry who are working harder than anyone else – showing tenacity and perseverance every day - to crush stereotypes about what the craft beer industry looks like.
A dollar from every four-pack and a dollar from every taproom pour of this beer will be donated to @PinkBootsCanada, which provides scholarships, training and opportunities to women working in the fermented beverage industry.
IPA - New England / Hazy
Once or twice a year we take a stroll down the towering shelves of our hop fridge, shake a few bags, take stock of odds and ends, and concoct a IPA-suitable hop blend that utilizes the best of the best hops we have on hand.
These “kitchen sink” brews always turn out wonderfully (Super Duper Saturation was the OG kitchen sink brew!) and this one is no exception. Talus, Meridian, Cryo Pop, HBC 1019, Mosaic and Triumph synchronize in the most harmonious of fashions.
Kitsch in Sync Hazy IPA is soft and juicy, pouring a delightful golden, hazy hue with wild face-meltingly tropical fruit notes of melon, peaches, coconut, mango and pineapple. It’s a fruity delight, and it’s ready now for your next kitchen dance party.

Pale Ale - American
For Cabin and Sea Change’s second collaboration beer, our scent-curious brewers set out to explore how the bright notes of fruit-forward, light roast coffee intersected with the citrus hop notes of a west coast pale ale. The result is Sure Shot West Coast Pale Ale (5.5%) and is liquid proof that high quality coffee can be so much more than just a dank, dark pick-me-up.
We used Rwandan Golden Hour beans from Calgary’s Rosso Coffee Roasters, with notes of lemon, brown sugar and Darjeeling tea. Cold brew was added to the beer as it fermented, before it was run through dry, whole beans for a touch more aroma. It pours a tantalizing orange hue, with floral aromas of orange marmalade, lime blossom and bergamot blooming from the glass. It’s tough to tell where the cold brew citrus notes end and the west coast hop aromas begin.
This beer is extremely limited and won’t around for long, so be sure to give it a shot while you can.

A delicious beer at a beautiful place in a spectacular setting. Could you ask for more?
For 31 years River Café has been showcasing the taste of Canada from Calgary’s cutest restaurant, nestled among nature in Calgary’s Prince’s Island Park. When the opportunity to work together on a beer came up, we jumped at the chance!
Inspired by their fascination with seasonal ingredients, we looked to the garden and the fields for inspiration and came up with Park Life Gin Botanical What Ale, brewed with 10 different botanicals and a smattering of floral hops to round out the bouquet.
Park Life is popping with spicy, herbal and floral aromas from the botanicals, while the wheat lends a bready aroma with a full-bodied flavour that lingers. At 5% ABV, it’s easy-drinking and a perfect accoutrement for picnics, patio lunches and sunset dinners.
Wheat Beer - Wheat Wine
Life is a marathon, not a sprint. Sometimes you just have to relax, take a deep breath and enjoy what's going on around you.
Slow & Steady Wheat Wine is a beer to take your time with. Aromas slowly open up as it warms, offering notes of toffee, chocolate and plum. The warming flavours steadily develop as you sip, and the heavy wheat content (50%) gives it a full-bodied, creamy mouthfeel with flavours of toasted bread fig, dried fruit and toffee.
Definitely drink it now but make sure you cellar a few cans for later to compare with a version that is aging in barrels - slowly, steadily – until next winter.
Scottish Export Ale
Introducing a beer that Sean Connery himself would be proud to announce; Scottishish Export Ale. While the English often hog the limelight when it comes to malty, easy-drinking pub ales, they sure don’t hold a monopoly. Just north of the wall in bonny Scotland, an entire movement of lower alcohol, slightly darker and mildly sweeter pub ales has emerged to help those from the Highlands to the Lowlands cope with some dastardly wet and cold winters. Nae, our version is not truly Scottish, as we’ve blended highly flavourful British, German and Canadian malts to ensure delectable caramel and toffee notes - but it’s Scottishish and aye, it’s tasty! Malt: Maris Otter, CaraBelge, Caramunich, Honey Malt, Pale Chocolate, Black Bear Hops: EKG, Saaz Yeast: Wyeast 1187 Ringwood
Stout - Pastry
Welcome back to the Night Kitchen, where beer and culinary worlds collide. We start with a full-bodied milk stout and judiciously layer flavour upon flavour to create a beer that is like dessert in a glass, while drinking like a well-balanced beer. For our third iteration of this winter favourite beer we blended eight malts for a rich, complex body and added brown sugar, milk sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon and vanilla to create a decadent beer that smacks of that most glorious holiday favourite - a mug of eggnog. Let it warm in your hands and enjoy the delectable aromas as they waft out. Try it with a dusting of nutmeg, a scoop of ice cream, a shot of rum or brandy for some extra merry merry, or just drink it on its own. Either way, you won’t be disappointed!

To celebrate the culmination of an arduous brewers exam season (it's a real thing) our brewers refocused their tunnel vision out of textbooks and onto the recipe sheet.
Introducing Book Learnin' Aussie NEIPA. The brewing team spent time crunching numbers on water profile and the ideal dry hop temperatures to affect the terpenes, mercaptans, and thiols (and some other words that went right over the head of this humble newsletter copywriter). It is aggressively hopped with Ella, Enigma, Galaxy, and Vic Secret - all varieties from Oz. The aromas of stone fruit and melon just pop right out at you. Book Learnin' is a celebration of higher education in action.
Sour - Fruited

IPA - Black / Cascadian Dark Ale
We invited our friends at Sea Change down to brew a collab that commemorates our feelings about Valentines; a cold black IPA cut from the same cloth as our hearts.

Micro Brewery
IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
Prepare to be greeted by an undeniable smell of fuzzy peach candies - we’re talking about the fresh from the bag, perfectly soft ones that you dreamed of as a kid. Featuring experimental hop HBC 1019.
Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
Hazy Pale ale featuring a fruity dose of Citra and Cashmere. Tropical, hazy, smooth.
Sour - Fruited
We jammed an irresponsible amount of Blackberry into this beer. Jam Rock pours a bright magenta/fuchsia, with a brilliant pink head. Jam-like berry, layered with gentle vanilla creates a dessert-like experience and a tart finish leads to the next sip.
Welcome to Jam Rock!
Kölsch
Our take on a classic style, a refreshing combination of grainy pilsner malt, light apple/pear esters, and subdued hops.
Sour - Fruited
A super amount of tropical Guava fuse with sourness, and a balancing wheat finish. Catharina Sour is a kettle sour style from South America, that spawned from fusion of home-brewers' and pro-brewers' ideas. Kind of up our alley! Think of it as a stronger Berliner Weisse re-fermented with a boat load of tropical fruit.
Porter - American
Formerly known as Fat Sherpa, Wandering Star is still a rich, chocolatey classic quaff. More than that, it’s proof that a great robust porter by any other name tastes just as delicious! Brewed using dark malts which are to credit for its night-sky hue and roasty, toasty coffee notes. Lightening up the darkness are some light citrus and floral elements from the hops. Though more subtle than the up-front maltiness, the hops linger longest with a balanced bitterness that fades slow.
IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
Right off the hop, we’ve been exclusively using Foggy London for all our hazy pops. But something else we’ve always done is experiment and the time was ripe for us to relinquish a modicum of control when it comes to the yeast variable. And so, today’s the day we launch our first foray into multi-yeast IPAs!
We tapped two of our favourite yeasts to engage in a bit of a team lift on the fermentation front: Foggy London, our old faithful, and Thiol Libre, our new flame out of @escarpmentlabs. This is our 3rd IPA in a row using Thiol Libre, mind you—so we guess you could call it a bit of a pattern, one with a highly tropical motif.
IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
By the power of two experimental brewing products combined, we bring you this thiol-liberated Imperial New England IPA. Phantasm’s dust is working its hopped-up magic, and Escarpment Lab’s thiol-enhanced yeast liberates even more tropical fruitiness for a dreamy effect that’s hard to summarize.
Historical Beer - Lichtenhainer
A historical style with a modern twist, an oak smoked sour beer with Pineapple. Tart like a Gose, this Lichtenhainer brings a fire all its own in the form of smoke.
Unlike Bamberg's smoky Rauchbier, the smoke on this other historical German style is from oak, not beechwood. This subtle difference puts this palette-pleaser more in the realm of grilled pineapple and less that of hot ham/savory bacon.
Hope you enjoy drinking it as much as we loved making it.
Pilsner - German
German style Pilsner - Floral and spicy noble hops lead the charge, supported by dough/bread like Pils malt. A balanced, drinkable style that has stood the test of time, for good reasons. Prost, my dudes!
Lager - Tmavé (Czech Dark)
From plan to pour, we kept this brew true to form and adhered to traditional measures and methods wherever possible. We sourced semi-early red-bine Saaz hops from the region formerly known as Bohemia, used water softened through reverse osmosis, and even ordered traditional Czech taps to top things off.
Stylistically the beer is the Czech equivalent of a
dark lager ranging in character from Munich Dunkel to
Schwarzbier, but typically with greater malt richness and hop
character (aroma, flavor, and/or bitterness).
Malt: Continental Pilsner, Caramunich II, Carafa Special II?
Hops: Saaz (semi-early red-bine)?
Yeast: @escarpmentlabs Isar Lager?
Water: RO 50:50?
Rain: That makes the parade
IPA - Triple New England / Hazy
Oh, baby! We’re getting strong today—dreaming big and hopping bigger. This deceptively downy Triple New England IPA does what the style suggests and brings the hops in an astronomically Milky Way. We more than dabbled in saturating products like Incognito which, besides being a definite misnomer, is a liquid concentrate aimed at achieving gratuitous levels of hoppy conspicuousness.?
?
Then, as a part of the ongoing game of one-upmanship we’re playing against ourselves, we threw another hop supercharger into the mix in the form of Cryo hops. Cryo is essentially freeze-dried lupulin, and lupulin is essentially the good stuff from the hop cone—AKA the sticky icky of the beer world and a good word to have up your sleeve for your next game of Scrabble.?
?
This beer offers Michelin Man-levels of lofty lightness but tips the scales at 10.5%—so there’s no overstating the gravity of this (hover)craft beer. You won’t be able to help but fall in love with this fruity TRIPA NEIPA, and it’s smooth enough to make you think it’s falling in love with you, too. Tether yourself to this juice and float into orbit, or pour one out for the massive amount of Citra hops that were harmed in the making of it.?
?
Malt: @OriginMaltingCo Pilsner, 2 Row, Flaked Oats, Flaked Wheat, Malted Wheat, Cara-Pils?
Hops: Citra, Citra Incognito, Citra Cryo, Nelson Sauvin?
Yeast: @EscarpmentLabs Foggy London?
Zero: G?
IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
For our next trick, we present this treat - and it really wants to be your friend. Social Candy packs a colossal punch of an ABV in a polite, unassuming wave. We're not saying you should drink it to cave in to social pressure and just fit in and be like everyone else, we're saying you shiuld try it because you'd need Kepler 1 to study this star's brightness.
Like our other Imperial NEIPAs that came before it, itll have you looking through a near opaque protein polyphenol hop haze and is an optimal upper. Either way, just stop all your thinking, its no good for your soul. This, however is. Its basically double dry-hopped soup for the soul.
Hops: Citra, Cryo Citra, Strata, Cashmere, Mosaic?
IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
Imperial New England, Double dry-hopped: Galaxy, Citra, Mosaic, Cashmere, Cryo Simcoe.
Seems soft, slaps hard. Like a wet pool noodle.
IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
Imperial New England IPA, 8.0% ABV
Bright citrus & fresh tropical fruit, with a massively hoppy flavour that shows bitter restraint.
- Malt: @hogarthmalt Pils, 2 Row, Golden Promise, Flaked Wheat, Flaked Oats, Malted Wheat??
- Yeast: @escarpmentlabs Foggy London
- Hops: Can confirm.
- Strong: But soft.
Pilsner - Other
Our take on a NZ style Pilsner. Showcasing Nelson Sauvin hop, with a supporting cast of Citra.
This beer style is typically less bitter and crisp than a German Pils, with a focus on delicately hopped tropical/citrus/gooseberry notes. In contrast to a German Pils whose hop profile leans toward a more classic herbal/floral/spicy.
Base malt shines through, cracker like: a blend of local pilsner and 2 row.
Sour - Fruited
Imperial Sour with Passionfruit, Apricot, Orange Zest, and Dry Hops
All good things must come to an end, but the best ones go out with a bang, and our next beer is no exception. This grand, canned culmination of the LSD series is the aptly titled In The Sky With Diamonds. We’ve taken the greatest hits from the previous beers in the series and remastered them to bring you this super deluxe edition.
This beer was born in the deeply saturated overlapping portion of the Venn diagram depicting Tangerine Trees, Marmalade Skies, Cellophane Flowers, and Kaleidoscope Eyes. We took passionfruit, apricot, orange zest, and dry-hopped the whole equation to high heaven. It’s as fruity as you’d expect, tart as you like, and far more powerful than your palate would have you believe.
We wonder which naming convention will follow…We hope you have enjoyed the show.
Sour - Fruited
Imperial Sour with Raspberries, Blackberries and Vanilla
Get up! This is our 500th (!) batch of beer. To celebrate and make the milestone extra sticky, we remixed our ride-or-die sour: Jam Rock. We’ve been pumping out Jam Rock since (almost) day one—and it’s long become both a fam and fan favourite—but more is more, so we pumped things up.
First, We Pumped Up The Jam literally by adding raspberries to the blackberries, then we cranked up the ABV to really get the party going on the dance floor. The result is a brew that elevates everything you love about Jam Rock: a jammy fruit pucker, a subtle vanilla kiss, and a breathtaking jewel tone worth pouring the contents of your can into a glass for.
Lager - Helles
Next in the series of lagers comes this highly quaffable light German lager, Mellow Gold.
Continental Pilsner malt is the show stopper here, bringing aromas of fresh bread, with a touch of German hops to balance and provide a very light bitterness in the soft, malty finish.
A refined beer as approachable as it is delicate, this is a sessionable beer with endless appeal!
Lager - Pale
This style of beer is the traditional light beer associated with Bohemia, which is why it’s sometimes also called a (light) Bohemian Pilsner. In contrast to German-style pilsners, Lil’ Bo Pils like this one are a deeper shade of gold. Their darker hue hints at their fuller body and subtly superior malt richness. They’re brewed with water that’s preciously low in minerals making for a softness you can feel and a bitterness you taste less of.?
IPA - New England / Hazy
Modified from VI and is the new core to stay, at least for a while. Yellow in colour and solid gold in taste, after a few trips around the sun and more than a few attempts, our beloved Sky Rocket sticks the landing! This beer is a beautiful and balanced constellation with zesty, tropical Citra hops as its star.
Lager - Munich Dunkel
Munich Dunkel, 5.2% ABV
With notes of roasty, toasty bread crust, this beer is the hearty manifestation of surprisingly delicate brewing techniques.
- Malt: German Dark Munich, German Pilsner
- Yeast: Escarpment Laboratories ISAR Lager
- Hops: Magnum, Hallertau Mittlefruh
- Toast: We’d like to propose one.
Sour - Fruited
The distinct taste of fruits from opposite sides of the globe kaleid beautifully in the form of this Imperial Catharina Sour. Apricot, meet passionfruit. Passionfruit, meet apricot. Kaleidoscope Eyes, meet everyone. Talk about a powerful fruit punch! Emphasis on the powerful. Emphasis also on the punch – she'll send you sky-high.?
IPA - Imperial / Double New England / Hazy
Imperial New England IPA with Phantasm.
Phantasm is an experimental grape derived magic dust that helps boost hop aroma and flavour by providing additional thiols, a strong aromatic compound to the beer. Hops themselves already have thiols, Phantasm helps boost them.
If we told you we were going to use freeze-dried Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc grape skin in our next Imperial New England IPA, would you accuse us of Irrational Things? Because we’d plead guilty. We’re also guilty of being the first Alberta brewery to get our hands on this magic dust—we don’t mean to brag, it came up organically!
This experimental product goes by the name Phantasm, which is fitting since it’s basically our phantasy. While still in its infancy, Phantasm lets select breweries dabble in their rad science, and we’re so pumped they consider us worthy. By harnessing the power of this powder’s mighty thiols, we synergistically supercharged the already bountiful hops typical of the style.
The human sniffer is super sensitive to thiols, so by inviting them to the party at the active fermentation phase, we were able to crank the tropical notes to a veritable boom. We wouldn’t go so far as to call Phantasm performance-enhancing drugs for hops, but it’s like a performance-enhancing drug for hops! Cheers, mates.
Malt: 2 Row, Flaked Oats, Flaked Wheat, Malted Wheat, Chit Malt
Hops: Galaxy, Equanot, Azacca, Citra Incognito, Mosaic Cryo
Yeast: Escarpment Labs Foggy London
IPA - Imperial / Double
There’s nothing imaginary about this beer, and you don’t even have to become a member of the secret society of cloudmakers to take part in a portion of these fine droplets. In this case, a cloud is a powerful thing. Prepare yourself for an unstoppably quenchable whirlwind of papaya, pineapple, honeydew, and orange marmalade - all elevated by a cheeky note of cannabis. Meteorologically speaking, this brew is more akin to a downpour than a sprinkle—as is the case with all our white can IPAs.
Hops: Nelson Sauvin, HBC 586, Idaho 7, Bravo
IPA - New England / Hazy
Clouds are rolling in, but not to cancel any shuttle’s launch (who put that thought in your head?). The Sky Rocket series will continue to soar, we were merely jonesin’ for another hop playground to stunt around in and turn out dynamite NEIPAs from.?
?
Hazy like the style forecasts, Food for Clouds is indeed a dreamy dish. If you ask us, all our NEIPAs make a splashy entrance, but we double hopped this devil into a straight-up cannonball.?
?
y splitting the hops into two separate drops, we were able to use more of them and get more from them, so we mean it when we say this stormy brew packs an anvil of hop flavour and aroma. This beer already has our heart, to deny it the chance to take yours would be like closing your eyes to love.

Micro Brewery
Brown Ale - American
Keep a sturdy grip on this hand-wrought ale. It is an alloy of premium two-row Alberta barley, roasted to a black malt and infused with quantities of potent, bitter hops. Stalwart and bold, it will douse the coal-fired thirst, slake the spirit and clear the soot from the teeth.
Wheat Beer - Witbier / Blanche
White Wheat Ale Despite its name, this is serious brew, unsuited to tawdry puns. It is a finely crafted, unfiltered wheat ale in the Belgian tradition, the colour of straw with a delicate white haze, crisp flavours accented with orange zest and coriander. It is a classic. So get into Wit.
Blonde / Golden Ale - Other
Village Blonde Ale has been brewed in conformance to the beer style characteristics and have a rich golden blonde colour. The beer has a crisp, dry palate, with a hint of, but not overpowering sweetness from the 2 Row malt. There is a definite hop aroma and a positive bitterness to balance the malt flavours. As with all good ales, there will be a hint of fruity esters to round out the finish. The higher end gravity will result in a beer with medium body, good mouth feel and the perception of a full strength beer, while remaining easy to drink to the most discriminating palates.
Kölsch
Hidden Talent is a malt-forward, crispy beer with locally collected honey sweetness balanced by the bitterness of noble hops. This Kölsch was fermented at lower temperatures to create a smooth and clean beer. The aroma and flavour are reminiscent of walking through a lavender field whilst honeybees peacefully buzz around you.
IPA - American
The Nomad leads us to an oasis, a place where bright malts shimmer like a hazy mirage. The colour of sun bleached straw where cool. Fragrant hops conjure scents of peach and mango, citrus and pine Have we found a piece of paradise? Heaven knows where a Nomad goes.
Fruit Beer
The Village Squeeze is balanced with light additions of lemon zest and fresh raspberries. It has sweet malty notes and herbal hop aroma. It is a beer first and foremost, with subtle compliments from the fruit.
Stout - Imperial / Double
An imperial stout that boasts an incredibly rich profile and strikes the perfect balance between bold malts and hops. Coffee, chocolate, and dark fruits can all be found in this imperial stout, accompanied by a boozy warmth.
Porter - Other
The first frost heralds the arrival of the Monk, a jolly, black brew with a stout body borne of copious chocolate and caramel malts. If you are a genial soul, the Monk will sing you ancient notes of cardamom and clove, ginger and fennel, mint and peppercorn. Amen.
Pale Ale - New Zealand
Binge Watch is our Kiwi love child—stacked with hops hailing from New Zealand: Enigma, Simcoe and Nelson Sauvin. Together they create a dank hop profile with notes of grapefruit, pine, and white wine. Couple this with Escarpment Labs Hydra Yeast and the barley, wheat, and oats trifecta for a silky-smooth mouthfeel and juicy punch that balances your NZ hop experience. At only 4.5% ABV, it’s crushable like your favourite sitcom. What are you Binge Watching?
Porter - American
Take a sip of the darkness and find solitude from your deepest fears. At 6.6% ABV, Phobia wraps you in a warm blanket — comforting you with layers of malt that create a smooth, full-bodied ale loaded with notes of dark chocolate, traces of warm biscuits, and a hint of creamy honey. We added just enough hops to balance the rich malt with subtle bitterness. Arachnophobia, Ophidiophobia, Trypanophobia. These may make your skin crawl but they’re no match for this Robust Porter.
Cider - Sweet
The Village Apple Cider blends the sweet, tart and refreshingly crisp flavour of apples with subtle notes of pear and earl grey tea. Smooth, semi-dry and balanced this all-natural hard apple cider will get you straight through those hot summer days.
Non-Alcoholic Beer - Pale Ale
CR*FT Pale Ale has a hoppy nose and delights the palette with the full flavour of sweet Alberta Caramel Malt and hops with a hint of citrus zest. It has the characteristic mild bitterness of a craft pale ale. This easy-going pale ale has a light refreshing mouthfeel and body.
IPA - New England / Hazy
This juicy New England IPA is packed with ripe mango, guava and sweet citrus flavour and aroma. A super hazy brew with subtle sweetness from Alberta malt that balances a well-rounded hop bitterness.
Lager - American Amber / Red
House beer brewed for 1410
Pilsner - Italian
Our Italian Pilsner is the last thing to get on your nerves. Pet Peeve is light-bodied and clean like a Pilsner should be. Dry hopping with a variety of noble hops reveals a pleasant bitterness to an otherwise malt-forward profile. Lush, and unapologetic. Available exclusively in our Chatterbox Variety Pack. Life’s too short to sweat the small stuff (like your Uncle who chews too loud), drink Village instead.
Belgian Dubbel
Water, barley, hops, yeast, Belgian Candi sugar
Non-Alcoholic Beer - Porter / Stout
CR*FT Stout is silky and smooth with bold chocolate and coffee notes. English Roasted Barley provides a lavish mouthfeel and deep colour. Hops provide balanced bitterness while cocoa adds a rounded dimension.
Non-Alcoholic Beer - Other
This golden ale is crispy, dry and balanced with a slight fresh-baked biscuit finish reminiscent of Honeycomb and bread. Lightly hopped and malt-forward, this Blonde ale is refreshingly well-balanced.
IPA - White / Wheat
Pineapple and tropical fruit characteristics (from the hops), with cardamom and coriander spices all mixed in with spicy Belgian yeast character in the aroma. A substantial body is supplied by the oats which provides a backdrop to showcase fruit forward American and Australian hops.
Lager - American Light
Brewed with premium Alberta malt for rich flavours and a smooth, clean finish. Village Mighty celebrates the bold people who make the world a better place.
Brown Ale - American
Our take on a Brown Ale with cinnamon, spice, and everything nice (nutmeg). Layered with caramel and chocolate malt and topped with Good Stuff Maple Syrup — like a delicious stack of french toast on Christmas morning. It’s dark, malty, and sweet, with more warmth than a full-body snowsuit on a cold winter day.
IPA - Cold
Let this small-batch Cold IPA tantalize your tastebuds and unlock your inner Super Power. We utilized a biotransformation followed by a traditional dry hop to accentuate flavours of fresh grapefruit and juicy mango, complemented by a citrusy aroma. You’ll find this beer refreshingly bitter with a light, crisp body packed full of delicious fruit flavours. It’s easily crushable but the 6.5% ABV will leave you feeling like you have Super Powers in no time.
Pilsner - Other
Brewed exclusively for the Ship and Anchor Pub
Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
At first glance, this mysteriously hazy liquid could be mistaken for juice, yet it possesses a personality much deeper than one could imagine—the elusive Hazy NEPA. Alter Ego is Village Brewery’s juicy tropical elixir. Double dry-hopping this NEPA induces ripe aromas of passionfruit and tangerine that are accentuated with a little help from Foggy London yeast—feasting on real passionfruit puree and the addition of Galaxy hops mid-fermentation, followed by Riwaka & Mosaic. Highly juiced up with low bitterness wrapped in a luscious, fuzzy mouthfeel. It’s within all of us to find our true Alter Ego. What’s yours?
Cider - Other Fruit
Sweet aroma of tropical fruit, mainly pineapple is noticeable but decently balanced. This semi-dry cider has natural fruit sweetness, gentle guava and mango flavour accented by the slightly tart pineapple. High carbonation gives a crisp mouthfeel and bright fruit flavours. Overall a tasty medley of fruits designed for summer days in the hot sun. Your new crush. Super fresh and just sweet enough.

From the first beers to know brewers, have used what’s on their farm to brew. Ingredients come and go with the seasons, environments change, and with this comes different beers with different tastes. Just like our predecessor’s, we brew from our backyard, the Rocky Mountains. Scorcher soils and burned orchards gave birth to a truly unique Ale. Sweet-and-sour Berry notes mixed with traditional Belgian used to create this farmhouse Al. Raise your glass and cheers to the red barns that came before us!

Brew Pub
IPA - American
Clear, amber and dry, this modern example of an American-style IPA bursts with big tropical, citrusy flavours with assertive bitterness and balanced malt character. Dry-hopped twice with Cry+Regular Amarillo, Cryo+Regular Mosaic, Citra, and Lemondrop.
Wheat Beer - American Pale Wheat
2020 Alberta Beer Awards Bronze Medal Winner. This American-style wheat beer pours golden with a white, foamy head, and features prominent citrus, stone fruit, and bread aroma. This beer has a light, refreshing body with moderate carbonation and a dry but soft bread-flavoured finish and mild grain aftertaste.
Brown Ale - English
2019 Canadian International Beer Festival Gold Winner. Formerly known as Coconut Brown, this beer overlays sweet, fresh, house-toasted coconut on a nutty brown base beer, with flavours of milk chocolate, caramel and toast, on a mildly bitter backbone with a dry finish.
Kölsch
Flavourful but easy drinking, our Kölsch-style ale is clean and crisp with a slightly sweet grainy flavour and a dry finish. Based on the pilsner style, but fermented with ale yeast and lagered for several weeks, this beer has a pleasant, soft and surprisingly refreshing flavour profile that makes it stand tall beside its lager brethren.
IPA - Cold
For this year’s International Women’s Day brew, we are collaborating with XHale Brew Co to create our own take on a very new style, the “Cold IPA”, which is sweeping across the USA but has yet to make its mark on Alberta. This mixed style combines aspects of both a European Lager and a West Coast IPA to create a very unique brew that is light in colour, crisp in finish, and heavy on hops. What better way to showcase this year’s Pink Boots hop blend? Our annual Pink Boots Brew is used to re-establish the conversation around women empowerment and inclusion in the brewing industry and we’ve teamed up with XHale Brew Co to help expand our reach with this important message.
Spiced / Herbed Beer
The return of a fan-favourite! We’ve infused our Little Bear with Motherlode Coffee (Calgary, AB) using their No Closets Pride Blend! This Coffee Crisp candy bar in a glass brings in milk chocolate, toffee, honey and caramel notes with no harsh coffee bitterness.
Red Ale - American Amber / Red
Our red ale takes cues from the classic Irish Red style, employing a hint of roasted barley for colour and taste atop a base of sweeter caramel malts with a deliberate underlying bitterness that keeps the beer palatable adding a pleasant aftertaste.
Sour - Berliner Weisse
A hazy, tart and crackery Kettle Sour with a hint of lemon. Try this traditional sour on its own or with our house made fruit syrups! A modern take on German Berliner-weisse with a tart acidity and surprising level of flavour and body for such a low alcohol beer, with plenty of malty, husky grain flavour and a pale yellow colour with some haze. Originally called Kettle Sour #2, Jumpingpound is the basis for nearly all of our Barrel-Aged Sour and Barrel-Aged Fruited Sour beers. We are bringing this classic back in its unadulterated form with a fancy new name, emphasizing the importance of the connection to nature and the versatility of this product that has been around all along, but quietly in the background.
Fruit Beer
2023 Alberta Beverage Awards - Judges' Selection. A refreshing Belgian-style blonde ale with raspberry and a custom blend of American hops. Underlying the fruit and bready malt flavours is a spicy Belgian yeast character.
Sour - Fruited
This fruited kettle sour was first created last summer to celebrate Pride Week and due to extremely popular demand, it has returned in even more glorious fashion! We took our Jumpingpound Kettle Sour and refermented it over 90 pounds of blueberry puree before adding a hint of lemon zest and vanilla to create an extremely approachable sour beer. Bursting with fruity citrus and berry notes paired with a delicately tart and full mouthfeel, this beer is sure to surprise many and blow away preconceived notions towards sour beers.
Lager - Vienna
This rich and malty lager highlights some of the fantastic malt grown and produced on our very own prairie lands. Expect a strong malty flavour with notes of chocolate, caramel, cracker and biscuit, with a sweeter profile based on the lager yeast.
Lager - American Light
A bold expression of subtle changes - this low-alcohol, low-calorie, low-carbohydrate lager style beer is dry-hopped for beautiful hop aroma and flavour without the crazy buzz. Per 150mL: 43 cal 2.7 g carbs | Per 250mL: 72 cal 4.5 g carbs | Per 473mL: 135 cal 8.5 g carbs
Porter - Imperial / Double Baltic
We took Desperate Times, our unique take on a Baltic Porter and aged it in a single barrel that once held California Zinfandel (2018 vintage), bringing mellow dark fruit, vanilla, and toast undertones to an already rich and delicious porter. Lagered and barrel-aged, this beer is smooth and crisp, yet full bodied and deceptively easy drinking for its alcohol content. At over 10%, this beer brings a fair amount of alcoholic heat that is beautifully balanced and mellowed from its extended barrel-aging time of 1 year. The resulting flavours resemble that of a glass of sherry or port with plenty of oak, vanilla, toast, and dark fruit notes.
Porter - Imperial / Double Baltic
We took Desperate Times, our unique take on a Baltic Porter, the 100th batch of beer brewed at Prairie Dog Brewing and aged it for 5 months in Tennessee Whiskey barrels, bringing bold yet smooth whiskey characteristics to an already rich and delicious beer. The malty sweet chocolate and light roastiness serve to introduce the warming backbone of its 10.3% ABV. Lagered and barrel-aged, this beer is smooth and crisp, yet full bodied and deceptively easy drinking for its alcohol content.
Stout - Imperial / Double
A blend of 15-month bourbon barrel-aged and 3-month stainless-aged imperial stouts, further bottle-aged for 2.5 years. A deceptively smooth, full-bodied drinking experience without the sharpness of younger examples. Named for the atmospheric phenomenon that was originally coined in Alberta; Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement (S.T.E.V.E. for short), which appears as a ribbon of light across the sky. From its Aurora-watching inspiration, this barrel-aged imperial stout’s name represents a long process of studying and the amazing discoveries happening right here in Alberta in the sky and in brewery barrels. This big beautiful beer showcases what some patience and childlike wonder will do.
IPA - New England / Hazy
This Hazy IPA is an ultra-creamy cloud of dry-hopped deliciousness with notes of tangerine, peach, raspberry and passionfruit, with a resin finish. A super approachable Hazy IPA using wheat malt and oat malt to increase protein haze and give a creamy, fluffy mouthfeel without the use of milk sugar. Dry-hopped with a combination of Mosaic, Idaho Gem, and HBC 630 - an experimental hop that enhances creaminess with a low caramel note.

Micro Brewery
IPA - Milkshake
This beer breaks most of the rules we learned in beer school: it’s hazy, it’s sweet, and it doesn’t fit neatly into a style category--but, damn, is it ever delicious. Huge flavour without the intensity of an IPA; pillowy soft with a mouthfeel that can only be described as voluptuous. Even those who claim not to like IPAs will love this beer.
Stout - Imperial / Double
Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
Day One Dry-Hopped and Double Dry-Hopped=a juicy bouquet of mosaic. Super hazy. All the Hail the Haze Lord!
Sour - Fruited
Brewed in collaboration with the homies at Revival Brewcade, we made a hazy, heavily hopped wort that was kettle-soured with pure lactobacillus for 48 hours. We then put 300 kg of raspberries (and even more hops) into the kettle. A little lactose add body and sweetness to balance this intensely sour creation. Sweet, sour, fruity, and beautiful.
Blonde / Golden Ale - Other
A blonde so bad ass that we named it after the Viking warriors. We designed this beer to appeal to craft beer newbies and the hardcore elite. With a lighter IBU and medium malt profile, the Berserker can be sessioned like you wouldn’t believe. Flavourful and complex for craft beer lovers and approachable for all palettes.
Sour - Other
The beer that's bright green and tastes just like it looks. Definitely not for purists, it bursts with the freshest blue raspberries that we can find. It's liquid candy. It's liquid fun. It's the Green Demon that haunts Alberta's brewing industry.
Sour - Fruited
Key lime pie kettle sour. The Sorceress is loaded with lime, coriander, cinnamon, vanilla and or course...lactose!
Stout - Russian Imperial
Bold and formidable, the Leviathan packages deep, dark flavours with a full mouthfeel. Some roast flavours, coffee undertones, a hint of caramel and a viscous mouthfeel. It’s heavy, but sessionable for those who believe in themselves.
Spiced / Herbed Beer
Designed to be the beer version of the delicious Mexican beverage. Sweet and full bodied with loads of cinnamon.
IPA - American
Forget trying to make an approachable IPA. We brew Reaper’s Choice for Alberta’s hop fiends. Unapologetically West Coast. High ABV. High IBU. Dank and piney. The Reaper comes ripping.
Stout - Imperial / Double Milk
Infused with lactose, cinnamon, vanilla, and nutmeg, on a malt bill that’s heavy on the roast and chocolate, it’s holiday treat that’ll delight the most miserable grinch.
Lager - American
Albertan base-malt is blended with select European specialty malts for a dry, crisp finish with light body and high clarity. Very lightly hopped with Magnum, Hallertau Blanc, and Saaz for a gentle yet complex aroma and flavour. Ridiculously easy drinking.
IPA - Milkshake
Even wizards need to go on vacation.
Sour - Other
Brewed with the homies at Boogie's Burgers, it's a Dill Pickle Sour. Be sure to check it in on Untappd and write "I hate pickles".
Sour - Fruited
Orange Creamsicle Sour
Porter - American
It’s cool to drink hazy IPAs and golden coloured blondes, but sometimes you need to let your darker side out. Just a little bit. That’s why we brewed this porter. Hints of chocolate and stone fruit with a slightly roasted finish. Smooth mouthfeel. Lightly dry hopped with Willamette.
Stout - Other
A chocolate stout conditioned on two additions of raspberries and cocoa nibs. Rich and smooth. Nice raspberry jaminess on top of dark chocolate.
Sour - Fruited
A collaboration brew with '88 Brewing.
Stout - Imperial / Double Milk
Peanut Butter and Strawberry Jam Stout. 8% 50IBU. A thick milk stout conditioned on jars of actual peanut butter and strawberry jam. Just like the after school snacks you used to eat when you were a young hesher.
IPA - Milkshake
It's a beer. But, it's also Kombucha. It's sweet, but it's also tangy. It's immense flavour, but it's insanely crushable.

Pale Ale - New England / Hazy
Hoppy, bitter, citrusy, clean.
Lager - Amber / Red
Somewhat of a hybrid between your classic American Amber and a California Common. The house Kolsch yeast was used to give this beer a crisp/refreshing finish. Pilsen malt gives it a meduim body, and dry hopped with Mt Hood variety provides classic hop character.
Pale Ale - American
I must say this was the most fun I've had brewing a beer in a very long time! We drove down to Flatland Hop Farm in Taber, AB last Tuesday as they were harvesting their Cascade vines and picked up 30KG's. We immediately drove back to our brewery in Calgary and brewed late into the night to ensure the hops did not degrade in any way. We chose our Pale Ale as the base for this Wet Hop brew as we wanted to go the traditional route and allow the Cascade's to lend themselves to give a huge citrus bomb of aroma.

Wheat Beer - Witbier / Blanche
Perfectly paired with a slice of orange, this pale golden, foggy witbier, with a solid inch of foamy white head is about to become a favourite in your beer fridge with its orange and coriander additions.
Wheat Beer - Hefeweizen
This cloudy, pale beer with pillowy soft head stacked on top, seriously pushes the boundaries of the classic German hefeweizen, much like its namesake, pushes the boundaries of awesomeness! With less than typical, subdued clove and a bountiful presence of sweet banana esters (naturally produced with an incredible german yeast strain), we have brewed this light, wheaty beer to challenge what you thought a hefeweizen could be.
Lager - Mexican
Besides the double dose of lime this lager was brewed to quench your unending thirst for a clean, lawnmower, summer beer!
Shandy / Radler
We couldn’t have anticipated a more flavourful half-beer, lower alcohol beverage than when we created our Mister Pink Radler. Blending grapefruit soda with our 1882 Okotoks Golden Ale, already full of citrus, strawberry and melon flavour and aroma, Mister Pink is a fruity, refreshing radler, perfect for those looking for a little less “beer” and a modest level of tart sweetness. 9 times of out 10 our "wine" drinkers choose Mister Pink. Oh and in case you were wondering, only the manliest of men drink Mister Pink!
Brown Ale - Other
Rich copper in colour and as smooth as the day is long, this carmelly delight is still as light and refreshing as your favourite summer beer. With a kiss of sweet, local, chinook honey tantalizing ALL of your senses, you will know what we mean in one sip!
IPA - Belgian
This is not the IPA you've tried before...this one is cleaner...crisper...a little spicy...and leaves just enough bitter "bite" in the finish to keep your hoppy attention. If you enjoy West Coast IPAs and Belgian Witbiers, then you'll enjoy this marriage of flavours too!
Stout - Milk / Sweet
Like Santa hitting the skies on Christmas Eve, we know you too will be busy readying for the big day. So wouldn't it be great to have a little "helper" on your side? Creamy with a rich, dark, chocolatey backbone, gentle notes of vanilla and lots of roasty/nuttiiness, this beer has good dose of Christmas spirit, to help you navigate your way through the holidays!
Wheat Beer - Dunkelweizen
A serious bounty of banana and clove going on but changes it up with a rich mahogany colour and malty Munich back bone
Porter - American
Get ready for an uncannily smooth, roasty, rich, malty-sweet beer, with a surprisingly crisp, clean finish that warms you from the inside out
Pale Ale - American
Staycations are all the rage as we spend our leisure time sipping tasty brews on our patio or on our front drive, in the warm Alberta sun, so we thought why not brew a beer that would help you eacape to the tropics until we're allowed to seek them out again! This deep golden, double dry hopped beer with ever so slightly opacity, is sure to kickstart your staycation with visions of your favourite sandy beach at sunset. And if that isn't enough, the fresh, sweet mango aroma and gentle flavour will! When you reach the bottom of your glass, the crisp, clean finish will conclude your staycation feeling like your feet have been in the ocean the whole time!
Sour - Fruited Gose
Much like it was Michael Corleone's destiny to join his powerful Italian-American crime family business, it was Hub Town's destiny to brew its first gose, a refreshingly crisp and mildly tart brew, that finishes dry with brite notes of sweet cherry pie and a red hue that's to die for. And if you know us well, you know this gangster beer is right up our alley!
Cider - Dry
This semi-dry apple cider showcases it's purple beauty with an abundance of saskatoon berries and gentle ginger and vanilla fading into the background. Coming in at an ABV of 5.9%, perfect for a hot summer night! In a collaboration brew with Sunny Cider in Calgary, Alberta, we are proud to have helped in our small way, to create a beer alternative that appeals to our wine loving audience.
Lager - Winter
SRM ~9, Pale Amber Colour. Slight hoppiness, ~30, Malty finish, well balanced. Notes of Clove and Spice. Warming. Tasty. Nicely done.
Root Beer
This is a magical soda made for kids...well, the big kids too! Non-alcoholic in nature and full of carmelly magic, this kid-friendly beverage is a winner for all who try it!
IPA - American
Besides expressing coconut, mango and even hints of pineapple, this tropical IPA has had the calories stripped down (to just 103/standard serving) and the gluten reduced (as always) to make this beer the perfect beach companion for your summer…if it lasts that long because when this beer is gone, it’s gone forever!
IPA - New England / Hazy
Expect this crisp, juicy, sweet tangerine forward, New England style IPA to tansform your dreams into fields of tangerine trees, overwhelming your every sense! While it bursts with more citrus than ANY other brew we've made, it follows up with a pillowy soft head, a silky smooth mouthfeel, a perfect amount of haze, and of course little to no bitterness, making this smooth drinker a winning choice for even the "non-IPA" drinkers!
Blonde / Golden Ale - Other
Easy drinking is an understatement when describing this golden ale. Brewed to be classically blonde with a sweet, fruity, citrus/berry and even mango aroma, this deceptively light tasting beer rings in at 5% ABV and has been called the most refreshing and crushable patio beer you will find around. Be prepared to enjoy more than one...it's THAT kind of beer!
IPA - New England / Hazy
Previously released as "Hazed & Confused IPA" this hazed up, fruit explosion, built around a multitude of citrus-centric hops (that we gathered up last minute like mad scientists when our hop order didn't make it to us in time) sold out in no time flat and created enough "buzz" to garner the attention of a brewery way out in Eastern Canada, selling a brew under the same name! Now known as "Hoppyright Infringement" we are re-releasing this wildly popular New England style IPA, PACKED with hops, very low in bitterness and as high as it gets in fruity, citrusy hop flavour and aroma to you once again!
Red Ale - Irish
This deep copper-red, malt forward beer with a candy-like caramel sweetness and just enough toastiness to give it the balance it needs.
Belgian Blonde
What began a beautiful, crystal clear belgian blonde ale, with a gentle mix of fruity esters, very quickly became the fruit beer you've been dreaming of when we added TONS of local raspberries from @fiascogelato in Calgary! This beer will knock your raspberry loving socks off with it's easy drinking nature and crisp, dry finish...but be careful...this is no session brew...coming in at 6%, this beer is a true belgian blonde at heart and will make you feel like the raspberry truck hit you if you don't
Belgian Strong Golden Ale
Bold fruity esters crisp, dry finish, this high ABV brew is going to take your taste buds on a serious adventure!
