Suggested Beers to try at Origin Malting & Brewing.
IPA - American
This IPA has an aroma of New World hops and our local barley. The taste is juicy, bitter, citrusy, and mild melon, with a bitter, smooth finish. The 2020 Alberta Beer Awards silver medal winner in the IPA category! Includes Origin's Prairie Pale and Chinook malt.
Scottish Export Ale
Nutty, fruity, toffee, molasses and caramel notes on the nose followed by light coffee, caramel and delicious nutty flavours on your palate. Hopped solely with EKG, it provides an earthy and grassy undertone. This brew is a smooth drinker, has a sweet finish due the residual sweetness of the Scottish yeast and is one of the most popular beer here at Origin. Includes Origin's Prairie Pale and Munich malt and our roasted barley.
Fruit Beer
Named after a great small town, near some fields we grow barley for our tasty beer! Made with real raspberries, this is the perfect and refreshing summer beer! Includes Origin's Prairie Pale malt.
IPA - New England / Hazy
A Blend of Origin Pale malts, Oats and wheat for a cloudy juice bomb. A Blend of Sabro, Mosiac, Citra, and Idaho 7 hops impart notes of coconut, mango, passion fruit and citrus!
Märzen
Taste of malt sweetness, honey, and toffee with low hoppiness and a smooth finish. A quickly growing new favourite here at Origin! Includes Origin's Pilsner, Munich, Dark Munich malts, and our roasted barley.
Porter - American
A classic American Porter. This beer allows Origin’s Chinook, Dark Munich, and Chocolate malts to really shine through. It has a lightly roasted coffee nose that finishes with dark chocolate. A smooth graham cracker crust combined with a sweet chocolate flavour allows this malt forward beer to be enjoyed by anyone who dreams of chilly evenings and warm camp fires.
Lager - Mexican
Clean, crisp, citrus. Perfect with or without a lime. This full strength lager has a slight bready aroma and citrus flavour thanks to new world hop additions. Easy to drink and perfect for pretending you’re on a beach south of the border. Salut!

Classic crisp lager brewed with 100% malt grown on our own Origin family farm. Appearance of a golden straw in colour, sweet lemon on the nose, mild pleasant balanced bitterness with a crisp clean finish. Simple, Classic, but decadent.

Wheat Beer - Other
Named after the county we have proudly farmed in since 1910, Wheatland County. This is a Traditional-Style White beer made with Origin malted wheat and notes of orange peel and coriander. Includes Origin's Pilsner and wheat malt.
IPA - Session
India Session Ales generally weigh in around 4% ABV, while delivering more of a hoppy kick and robust flavour profile than your typical light beer. Includes Origin's Chinook and Vienna malt.
Sour - Other
Dry with a clean crisp acidity with a malty backbone. Although no apples were harmed in the brewing of this beer, the flavour is reminiscent of grandma’s fresh crab apple juice.
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.
IPA - Sour
JUICY. FRUITY. TART. A strong beer with big flavor; fermented on a unique wild yeast and hopped extensively with a fruit forward blend all balanced on the backbone of the best in local, Alberta malt. An adventure crafted and grown into a beer.
IPA - Session
Full West coast style IPA Aromas and flavors of citrus and pine but light in ABV. An IPA you can sip all day.
Lager - American
Tasty, easy drinking, farm-to-table craft lager. 5% ABV
Sour - Fruited Gose
A German wheat style with a high salinity, lightly kettle soured with lactic acid producing bacteria to produce a soft, tart ale. Co-fermented with Prickly pear and Guava puree.
This beer welcomes you with aromas of tropical Guava fruit, Bright pink in colour, and playfully acidic flavours of melon, kiwi, guava and pear with a pleasant slightly salty finish.
IPA - New England / Hazy
A Hazy (New England stlye) pale ale brewed with real apricot and peach puree’s.
Stone’s throw is a Citra and El dorado hopped hazy pale with over 190KG of pureed stone fruits (peach and apricot) added during fermentation. Tropically aromatic with a slightly tart yet distinct apricot and peach flavours.
Blonde / Golden Ale - Other
IPA - American
It’s juice it’s bitter it’s hazy it’s experimental. Hopped with experimental hops that don’t even have a name, bring in huge tropical aromas and flavors. Big body and hoppy bitterness will please all IPA drinkers.
