    7.7% Alcohol/Vol. | 
    25 IBU (Subtle Bitterness) 
    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.

    Stopped by on our way back to Calgary. Had a nice Gose and the atmosphere is relaxed and homey. The bbq food truck is a great addition. They have different weekday deals and the service is great! My only suggestion is to add non alcoholic beer to the menu!

    We stopped in to see the wonderful owners of Origin, Kyle and Meleah, Oct 8, 2024. Great visit, great food and the beer was awesome. Also bought a hat!! They offer great promotional items, all excellent quality! We have always had some of our best times at Origin over the years!!

    Another great Alberta brewery! The beer is simple and delicious! Our favorites were the Origin O.G Pub Ale and the Legal Issues Scottish Export Ale. We also loved the Hard Iced Tea especially on a warm day (maybe a touch on the sweet side, but damn good). We also tried the amazing Hunger Paynes food truck on site! OMG the best! Tried the Double Cheeseburger which was luscious, buttery, goodness, but the Smoked Brisket Burger was mind blowing! The Brisket was tender, the toppings were fantastic, and honestly was my favorite "burger" ever! Beauty combo and a must visit!

    Amazing local brewery with fantastic BBQ-style food. They have a large dog-friendly patio too, which is hard to come by in Strathmore and much appreciated!

    I like their beer, and I buy it fairly regular. What I find crazy, is that it is more expensive to go get a growler filled, than to go to the liquor store and buy it in cans. The amount of beer is pretty much the same! Doesn't make any sense!
