About Cabin Brewing Company
Cabin Brewing Company is a brewery, taproom and getaway in the heart of Calgary's growing brewing district, The Barley Belt.
We serve our craft beer, brewed on site, and pair it with a selection of hot and cold food items including New Zealand-style hot meat pies, warm pretzels with dipping sauces and cheese and charcuterie boards.
Take the time to relax with friends and family in our comfortable 45-seat taproom, or settle in with a book or a board game. You are welcome to bring the whole family; we have Lego, high chairs, kids snacks and a change table so even the smallest members of the Cabin family are comfortable.

Just like Super Saturation but even more super! More hops, more malt, more haze, more heft, more mmmmmmm. Look up juicy in the dictionary and you’ll find this beer.
Style: IPA - Imperial / Double New England
ABV: 8% IBU: 45
If you could select your three favourite hops to
make a beer, what would you choose?
We opted for three of the most fragrant,
enigmatic and unique hop varietals known to
brewers, representing the three top hop-growing
regions in the world - the Pacific Northwest of
the United States, Australia and New Zealand.
We’ve dunked a ridiculous amount of Sabro
(US), Galaxy (Aus) and Nelson Sauvin (NZ) hops
into this absolute rip-snorter of a haze bomb.
Imagine an explosion at a tropical fruit juicing
plant and you’ll be partway towards knowing
what this smells and tastes like. It’s smooth,
full-bodied and very, very, VERY aromatic.
Style: IPA - Imperial / Double New England
ABV: 8.5% IBU: 60

Massive amounts of Sabro, Amarillo and Mosaic hops are balanced against a smooth Maris Otter malt base to create a hazy, juicy, taste explosion with notes of tangerine, berry fruit and light woody notes.

All work and no play makes Professor Plum a dull boy. Was he the mysterious purple-clad figure roaming the halls of the Overlook Hotel the night the Grady twins died? We have no clue. We do, however, know a good mash-up when we see it. Like the salty and sour flavours of German gose beer, melded with the rich, dark fruit notes of ripe plum. Additions of coriander and wheat give a lingering flavour that shines. It’s to die for.
Style: Sour - Fruited Gose
ABV: 4.8% IBU: 10

New England IPA made with guava and Peruvian Aji Amarillo chiles. It’s a tropical fruit bomb, spiked with a gentle warming heat that lingers juuust so in the back of your throat. The aroma hits you like a slap in the face with a ripe guava and washes over you like a cool Miami breeze on a white linen suit.
Style: IPA - New England
ABV: 6.5% IBU: 0

This beer is tart, dry and super refreshing with layers of complex lime flavours and aromas, balanced with a cool earthy undertone from the cucumber. Making this beer was fun! We hand-peeled 300 pounds of Alberta-grown cucumbers, and zested and juiced 200 limes.
We also added torn kaffir lime leaves and smashed dried Mediterranean loomi limes to give it a certain something that most lime beers do not. Light additions of salt and coriander bring the flavours together with a long lasting bready wheat flavour.
It’s not just cool. It’s Cool As!
Style: Sour - Fruited Gose
ABV: 5.2% IBU: 10

TASTE THE RAINBOW!
Our latest beer will make you rethink what South Africa is all about. The dry conditions make the hops grown there incredibly unique. We’ve added Southern Star and Southern Passion hops to this ridiculously hazy beer and the result is phenomenal! It is hazy and orange, with huge berry and tropical fruit aromas. It’s very full-bodied with flavours of guava, pineapple, passionfruit and strawberry. It finishes with a lingering malty nuttiness this is one to sip and ponder over.
Style: IPA - New England
ABV: 7.3% IBU: 40

Fresh-baked cobbler - does anything smell better? We’ve captured the essence of walking into the kitchen on bake day with our first fruit beer. Wafting aromas of baked pie crust, vanilla and cinnamon emerge from the glass, which is filled by a beer of the most vibrant shade of violet thanks to an absurd dose of blueberry puree. Don’t worry beer purists - this beer finishes dry and clean, with a lingering malt complexity. A fruit beer that actually tastes like beer!
Style: Fruit Beer
ABV: 5.4% IBU: 15

For our second lager we wanted to make something different. Something light and crisp, yet floral and intriguing. A glorious lager to welcome in the brighter, lighter days. Something that epitomizes zen-like calm. Zen Garden uses 100% pilsner malt from Alberta’s Origin Malting with fragrant jasmine rice added for complexity and flavour. It’s the palest of straw in colour, with slightly floral and light bready aromas. It has a crisp, clean flavour with some nuttiness on the finish from the rice. It finishes dry and crisp.

Close your eyes and dream of a land so vast and
great and rich in culture you can lose yourself
in it for weeks at a time.
The Dreamtime is the foundation of Aboriginal
religion and culture in Australia. It is the story
of events that have happened, how the universe
came to be, how human beings were created
and how their Creator intended for humans to
function within the world as they knew it.
For our Australian-hopped hazy IPA, The
Dreaming, we leaned into the ethereal qualities
of this mystical land. Galaxy, Enigma and Vic
Secret hops have been layered in tropical
abundance, behind a smooth and full-bodied
malt base. Unlike most hazy beers, we used no
wheat and oats - just 2-row, flaked barley
and Victory malt.

We couldn’t finish up 2019 without one final haze-bomb to carry us through to 2020! Behold, the Dawn Chorus Hazy IPA, hopped exclusively with hops from New Zealand!
Early European settlers to New Zealand described a riot of birdsong and insect chirps from wild and strange creatures as first light broke over the new land. Sipping this beer, you’ll experience something similar - a riot of tropical fruit notes like pineapple, papaya and mango with bright citrus notes of orange and grapefruit - all from the medley of Taiheke, Motueka, Moutere and Nelson Sauvin hops.

Staycation is pandemic life in springtime in a glass. It is part sweet, part sour and there is so much vibrancy right before your eyes, like the stay-at-home life you’ve been ignoring all this time, without realizing just how awesome it is. With tart cherry, raspberry, red currant, black currant, blueberry and blackberry blending in a jam-like melange, there is a lot to be thankful for and enjoy. While safely nestled at home.

Our Lost & Won Wee Heavy is back, and it’s bigger and better than ever before!
A wee heavy is a traditional Scottish ale that is rich, complex, malty and sweet. It goes perfectly at this time of year when the dark clouds form and the temperature dips. It is oh-so-smooth with gentle alcohol warmth that is perfect for sipping in front of the fire.
Lost & Won bursts with rich aromas of toffee and light caramel, with underlying notes of banana bread, golden syrup, butterscotch and dried fruit. The Scottish ale yeast strain throws off some wonderful subtle fruity esters reminiscent of cherries and berries.
The name and can design is inspired by The Scottish Play (aka Macbeth, by William Shakespeare). In Act I, Scene I, three witches meet in a deserted place amidst thunder and lightning. The second witch utters, in response to when they should meet again: “When the hurlyburly’s done, when the battle’s lost and won”.
Style: Scotch Ale / Wee Heavy
