Brewing Style: Sort of an American IPA with attributes as described in the short product description.

    Inaugural Batch: Friday, May 6, 2022 
  •  3.7 on Untappd.
    IPA - American | 
    6.5% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    70 IBU (Robust Bitterness) 
    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.
    Inaugural Batch: Sunday, September 4, 2022 
  •  3.6 on Untappd.
    Rauchbier | 
    5% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    22 IBU (Subtle Bitterness) 
    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.
    Inaugural Batch: Sunday, September 18, 2022 
  •  3.8 on Untappd.
    IPA - Imperial / Double | 
    8% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    80 IBU (Intense Bitterness) 
    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.
    Inaugural Batch: Wednesday, December 28, 2022 
  •  3.8 on Untappd.
    Stout - American | 
    6.2% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    40 IBU (Gentle Bitterness) 
    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.
    Inaugural Batch: Sunday, September 18, 2022 
  •  3.6 on Untappd.
    Wheat Beer - Witbier / Blanche | 
    5% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    20 IBU (Subtle Bitterness) 
    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.
    Inaugural Batch: Wednesday, November 16, 2022 
  •  3.5 on Untappd.
    Honey Beer | 
    5.3% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    24 IBU (Subtle Bitterness) 
    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.
    Inaugural Batch: Friday, October 14, 2022 
  •  3.7 on Untappd.
    Pilsner - Czech / Bohemian | 
    4.5% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    32 IBU (Subtle Bitterness) 
    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.
    Inaugural Batch: Friday, November 4, 2022 
  •  3.3 on Untappd.
    Lager - American Light | 
    5% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    15 IBU (Subtle Bitterness) 
    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.
    Inaugural Batch: Sunday, August 28, 2022 
  •  3.4 on Untappd.
    Lager - Strong | 
    6.2% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    12 IBU (Trace Bitterness) 
    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.
    Inaugural Batch: Friday, November 24, 2023 
  •  3.6 on Untappd.
    Lager - American Light | 
    5% Alcohol/Vol. |

    Inaugural Batch: Saturday, August 12, 2023

    When an organization is doing well, it is LEADERSHIP! This Brewery has an excellent leader at the helm. I was fortunate to go on a tour here and see why the product is so great! They believe in being responsible members of the business community by even supplying their organics for feed to local cattle producers. They also keep their Brewery in tip-top shape so that it is clean and sanitized constantly. They will even WHITE LABEL cans for companies that wish to have marketing at events. They have already won multiple awards, and it is easy to picture them winning more in the future. The future of this Brewery is bright indeed because their leadership is strong. Hopefully I will get a chance to visit again sometime.

    Kinetic tastes fantastic, almost like a Shock Top! Only reason to drop it a star is the can. Terrible seam an more often than not it os right at the mouth.
