    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.

    IPA - American | 
    7.2% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    80 IBU (Intense Bitterness) 
    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.

    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.

    17 IBU (Subtle Bitterness) 
    This brew creeps out of the dark with a sour taste that overtakes your senses. Light cannot escape but the fruit notes on your nose and palate will. The zesty citrus flavours are all from the 48-hour souring process as it bubbled away in the kettle.

    California Common | 
    6% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    38 IBU (Gentle Bitterness) 
    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.

    Everyone needs a little change. Babs has taken her classic Blonde and ramped things up with a mound of Blackberry. Those blonde roots run deep but who doesn't like to play with colours a little? Clean and crisp with a sweet berry flavour; this is sure to make an impression.

    8 IBU (Trace Bitterness) 
    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!

    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.

    Absolutely love this place! They are microbrewery that consistently makes great beers. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable of all their beers, tell them what you like and they will find you something. I have like 90% of the beers I have tried and I'm not a beer drinker but I drink their beers. Atmosphere is amazing with great decor and small pieces of history they will gladly tell you about. This People Choice Award winning brewery should be on your list of stops on your way to or from Calgary. (I had to stock up while I was in town )

    Kaitlyn, you did an outstanding job of taking care of our bike pub crawl group on Saturday! I'm sure there was at least 15 of us and you cruised through! Thank you for everything and especially your cider slush recommendation!! I will be back!

    Great vibes, intimate sitting area makes for great atmosphere. Free butter popcorn is a great touch. Beer might be the best in town.

    What an incredible brewery! I found my drink of the summer - their patio kolsch with watermelon and lime blew my mind!! They're so kind, knowledgeable, and personable. I will absolutely come back any time I'm in Airdrie for this brewery!

    I'm a beer tour guide, I've tried craft beer all over the world and these guys make incredible beer. Their beer is truly small-batch brewed, technically it could be considered nano-batch brewed. The care and attention shows as usually at a brewery I'll enjoy 2 or 3 of the brews but these guys hit every single brew out of the park. I also really enjoy their passion for history and how they tie it into the beer. Simply excellent!
