3.7 on Untappd.Pesky Pig Pale Ale is named after Francis the Pig who stole the hearts of carnivores and vegetarians alike in the summer of 1990. This 220 pound porker evaded his fate by jumping a wall, navigating the slaughterhouse and escaping into Red Deer's parkland. Our Pesky Pig Pale Ale is meant to really let the hops sing. The malt presence is quiet but supportive of the rambunctious hop flavours of grapefruit, papaya, and other tropical fruits. The usual hop bitterness has been reigned in while the flavours and aroma have been allowed to run amok, making for a delicious, intense, yet ultimately quaffable beer.Inaugural Batch: Wednesday, June 10, 2015 -
3.7 on Untappd.Open Road is for those looking for something a little darker and malt forward. Pumpernickel bread and raisins dominate the palate but finishes with chocolate, while the hops lend just a hint of citrus and pine to balance out the sweetness of this easy drinking dark beer.Inaugural Batch: Thursday, June 25, 2015 -
3.8 on Untappd.Mostly clear, though it may have a slight haze, with a fine white head. This golden hued beer greets the nose with a mix of tropical fruit and herbacious hop notes that include candied lemons, juicy fruit gum and a hint of wintergreen. The first sip reveals that it is hop forward with a fairly soft mouthfeel and a bitterness that only really asserts itself in the finish. Tropical fruits again dominate the flavour with a some orange citrus, piney and resinous hop character towards the end.Inaugural Batch: Thursday, February 13, 2020 -
3.6 on Untappd.The nose starts with a hint of that authentic lager bite and a light touch of lemon over a straw and bread biscuit malt base. The first sip is well carbonated and crisply refreshing. Flavours of lemon citrus and hay from the hops roll over a light malt presence including just a little sweet corn. When the chores are done, the lawn mowed or the sidewalk shoveled. A lager for floating on fresh powder or floating down the river. The one beer you need while you put your feet up or to get up and move. It’s a little getaway, everydayInaugural Batch: Sunday, August 4, 2019 -

3.6 on Untappd.Light caramel malt flavours mingle with earthy and orange citrus hops to render a refreshing and easy drinking ale for any season.

4 on Untappd.It pours a yellow-straw colour with a fine white head. The nose is greeted by a big burst of pineapple and a little malt sweetness. The flavour is fresh pineapple layered over a gentle tartness that is softened by the lactose. The hops are more noticeable after the first couple of sips but lend subtle tropical fruit flavour that supports the pineapple and give it a little more depth while also balancing the fruit sweetness with a very slight bitterness. This beer is super refreshing and won't last long as the days get longer and warmer.Inaugural Batch: Tuesday, March 9, 2021 -

4 on Untappd.Open Road Barrel-Aged beer, aged in the barrels of Meeting Creek's first release.Inaugural Batch: Friday, June 23, 2023 -
3.7 on Untappd.The aroma is floral and fruity with cranberry cocktail sweetness. The colour is a pale yellow green which matches the flavours of green tea and cranberries in first sip. The floral and herbal tea notes combine with a slight sweetness to balance the dryness of the cranberries so you are left with an ultimately drinkable beverage that is just as fitting for a patio in the sun as it is for being curled up under a blanket watching the leave turn.Inaugural Batch: Saturday, September 30, 2023 -
3.8 on Untappd.The beer is a light yellow colour and pours crystal clear with very fine white bubbles on the top. Lemon and lime citrus notes from the hops greet the nose along with a hint of blueberry and biscuit. The taste is subtle and smooth with just a hint of malt and citrusy hops. The classic lager fermentation note provides a crisp, refreshing support and counterpoint to the slightly sweet malt character. The finish is just bitter enough to keep the palate fresh and you wanting more.Inaugural Batch: Wednesday, July 15, 2026 -
3.8 on Untappd.A gluten free seltzer. Real brewed tea with raspberry and spirits.Inaugural Batch: Monday, March 17, 2025 -
3.9 on Untappd.A delightful blend of a refreshing orange Julius and a perfect patio hefeweizen. It starts off with notes of orange and banana then leaning into some creamy vanilla and Finishing off with just the right amount of soft bitterness of a hefeweizen to round it out .Inaugural Batch: Tuesday, June 16, 2026 -
3.8 on Untappd.Lucky Stetson is intensely dark with ruby highlights. The dark ivory heads is fine but persistant and leaves lacing down the sides of the glass. Roast malt aromas come right up to the forefront with notes of coffee dried fruit, oat cakes and dark chocolate. The flavour is right there too with plenty of dark chocolate, and coffee rounded out by bready and roasty flavours that give way to subtle toasted coconut (especially in the aftertaste) and a slight dark malt tartness. It hits all the toasted and roasty stout flavours but is still light in the body and easy to drink. The carbonation gives a little boost to the bitterness so it never gets cloying or heavy. The result is a light, easy drinking, low abv beer with all the flavour of a much bigger beer. Coffee, Chocolate, DarkInaugural Batch: Tuesday, March 18, 2025 -
3.8 on Untappd.A higher-octane take on Troubled Monk’s hard iced tea, Charged is steeped with real black tea and built on a gluten-free distilled spirit made from Alberta beet sugar. At 7.0% ABV, it delivers a fuller-strength expression while keeping the profile straightforward and tea-driven, balancing gentle sweetness, refreshing acidity and natural flavour over a clean spirit base.Inaugural Batch: Saturday, March 28, 2026 -
3.9 on Untappd.Evoking memories of yesterday, this pale, cloudy beverage smells like the lemonade your parents might have mixed for you as a child. The sweetness nicely balances the tart acidity of lemons to shift the impression closer to a slightly sour lemon candy instead of the puckering, lip smacking hit of biting into a lemon. This help keep this lemonade super refreshing and allows you to indulge in more than one without scraping the back of your throat raw. iI is delicious on it's own but is also the perfect base for mixing your own beverages. Try it with ice, Troubled Tea, or even GrainHenge Whisky. Summer is short so get out there and play! Nostalgic, Tart, MixableInaugural Batch: Friday, March 20, 2026 -
3.5 on Untappd.The gold coloured beer is bright and clear with a fine, white rocky head that subsides to leave a bit of lacing on the glass. The aroma is dominated by the delicate fruit flavours with the strawberry and watermelon almost taking turns in the spotlight. The flavour is subtle, refreshing and evocative of summer with sliced watermelon complimented by the sweet berry notes of the strawberries. The malt pokes it's head up mid-palate but mostly stays out of the way and the hops provide just enough bitterness to give balance and help quench your thirst. This is an easy drinking fruit beer that hasn't forgotten where it came from and is sure to please during the long summer days.

Not rated yet.We put our award winning Open Road American Brown Ale into the freshly empited barrels of our award winning GrainHenge: Meeting Creek Whisky - the whisky that was inspired by this very beer. After 12 months, the flavours had married, mellowed and matured into this beautiful dark sipper of a beer. Ruby highlights and aged ivory foam add to the visual appeal. The aroma is full of vanilla, chocolate and coffee with some dried fruits. The first sip is warm and full bodied but not hot despite the high alcohol strength. Dark chocolate and coffee are smoothed out with sweet notes of vanilla and coconut while dark fruits linger in the background. A little bit of rye-bread malt character emerges as it sits on the palate. Perfect for sharing but you sure don't have to. Sit back and savour this rich and delicious beer that takes the journey from Open Road to Meeting Creek and back again. Cheers.

Arrowwood No.03 NEW!
Not rated yet.Arrowwood pours a nice, light copper colour with some noticeable legs on the side of the glass. The aroma hits quickly with spice, brown sugar and vanilla while beings supported by notes of natural honey, bakings spice and sponge toffee. The flavour is spicey and herbal with softer baking spices, vanilla and toffee. The alcohol warmth emerges late on the palate but drops off as quickly as it comes leaving a pleasant rye and herbal hard candy finish.

4 months agoTroubled Monk is an absolute gem! The ambiance is greatchill and welcoming, with an industrial feel that really sets the mood. The beer selection offers something for everyone, from crisp lagers to bold IPAs and a fantastic seasonal stout. Tanis was friendly and knowledgeable, happy to help us choose based on our tastes. Highly Recommend this place.

2 months agoThey're too damn good. Seriously be careful with this stuff. Their hard tea is the best I've ever tried by a long shot, and I am a seasoned tea connoisseur both of the alcohol type and non-alcoholic type and this stuff is simply wonderful. This is probably what the Greeks drank to inspire such amazing poetry and art

a year agoLove this place, drinks are excellent not much side dishes. It's too bad that one of them I really like but it's a seasonal item so don't sell in cans only on tap. Would love to go again for the next road trip.

a year agoWe had our wedding celebration in the cellar venue, and it was such a stress-free day. The bartender we had was amazing at making drinks and was very kind. The staff let us bring in our own food for the party and decorate as we wanted. Thank you to the staff for making our day extra special!

2 years agoStopped there on our way down to Calgary for some drinks - great beer and a nice location sure made that the right call. The service was right on par, too... Plus, the "The Knights who say NE(IPA)" is just the best beer name ever!
