MEET OUR BEER PARTNERS

THE ESTABLISHMENT BREWING COMPANY | 4407 1 St SE, Calgary, AB T2G 2L2

Recently named Canadian Brewery of the Year for 2021 at the Canadian Brewing Awards, The Establishment is where friends, old and new, are always welcome and great beer is always on tap.

Establishment v2

JAM ROCK: A consistent best-seller, this kettle-soured beer has an irresponsible amount of Blackberry jammed into it. Jam-like berry layered with a gentle vanilla create a dessert-like experience, and a tart finish leads to another sip.⁣

MY BEST FRIEND'S GIRL:  This brew is inspired by the Kölsch pubs & breweries of Germany, where the bar staff keep the Kölsch rolling until you say stop, then mark on your coaster how much you owe at the end of your session. It is characterized by light pome fruit notes (pear, apple), gentle doughy malt, and a crisp, dry finish.

VILLAGE BREWERY | 5000 12a St SE, Calgary, AB T2G 5K9

Village is Calgary's craft brewery with delicious beers, ciders, and non-alcoholic beer. Gathering community one or two beers at a time.

Village Cider: The Village Apple Cider blends the sweet, tart and refreshingly crisp flavour of apples with subtle notes of pear and Earl Grey tea. Smooth, semi-dry and balanced, this all-natural hard apple cider will get you straight through those hot summer days.

Binge Watch:  What are you Binge Watching? Binge Watch is our Kiwi love child—stacked with hops hailing from New Zealand, creating a dank hop profile with grapefruit, pine, and white wine notes. Enjoy a silky-smooth mouthfeel and juicy punch that balances your NZ hop experience.

ZERO ISSUE BREWING | 4210 12 St NE, Calgary, AB T2E 6K9

Zero Issue is a comic book-based brewery celebrating the nerdier side of life. We are telling beautifully illustrated stories with great beer as our pen. 

Zero Issue

MULTIVERSE: A classic and balanced West Coast style pale ale. The caramel malts provide sweetness to balance the piney, resinous hops, and the hop blend also provides a bright grapefruit zest note that keeps it fresh and refreshing.

ROC: Brewed with flaked maize, this light, crisp, refreshing lager has a slight sweetness and dry finish that makes it the perfect getaway beer.
