    I can't say enough good things about our experience ordering custom labelled beverages from Cold Lake Brewing and Distilling! We wanted to create custom labels to show off our event sponsor's logo. Rick advised us on which flavours might work best (we went with the Honey Lime Lager and the Strawberry Rhubarb Lemonade) and provided the dimensions of the labels. Our team provided the graphic design. They printed the labels and assembled everything and WOW did it turn out great! Our sponsor was thrilled, and it was a big conversation piece at our event. Plus, the beverages were delicious. Their team even worked with us to provide delivery to Calgary. Huge thank you to Rick and the team for providing excellent customer service and a fantastic product!

    This is a fantastic place to visit in Cold Lake. The service, beer, drinks and food was outstanding. The Nashville Chicken sandwich was sooo good, as was the potato salad that came with it. I thought that I would miss the French fries, but I did not not, and left the brewery feeling much better than if I would have had fries. The pretzel is amazing, and we will definitely have it again! Special thanks to Anjellla for her outstanding service. This is a great place.

    Do not ever take a team there! Horrible experience. We pre-ordered, were there for 3.5 hours and some people still didnt get their food.when asked why it was taking so long they told that they were not a restaurant and unable to pre cook our orders. None of this information was shared at the time of booking. They made us believe that could accommodate us. The servers were rude to the kids. They also had the nerve to add 18% gratuity to the bill without telling us.

    They definitely have some kinks to work out. Their draft lines need cleaning more often for sure. The canned brews are good but the draft needs work. Our food took over 30 minutes and was still frozen in the middle

    They have delicious beer. (and craft spirits) Wide variety of drinks on tap, including interesting seasonal rotations. The beautiful new building in Cold Lake north has a rooftop patio with views of the lake, an indoor/outdoor space with ground level patio and a small grassy area for kids to play. Local artists and details featured throughout the building.
