Tiffany
(3.58/5)
It's Complicated.
Don’t let the scrunchie fool you, Tiffany likes to let her hair down. Bright pink with a sassy tartness, it's a dance off between our Golden Ale and red wine grapes. The result is a bone dry, crazily crushable, dangerous lover friend.
Style: Farmhouse Ale - Saison
ABV: 8% IBU: 24

Easy Bake Salted Caramel Chocolate Cake Stout
(3.68/5)
Brewed in collaboration with Pretty Sweet Bakeshop and inspired by their amazing cake, this beer is rich, silky and over the top with flavour. Starting with a heaping amount of oats and boiled for over 2 hrs, the sight of it coating your glass like icing brings a tear to our grinchy brewers eyes. To finish, this beer it was aged on candi sugar, vanilla beans, cocoa nibs and the perfect hint of salt. It’s big enough for Santa and all of his little helpers, and it's so darn tasty that you can’t put it down.
Style: Stout - Pastry

Warp Whistle
(4.08/5)
Nearly two hundred pounds of locally sourced Alberta honey were used to create the backbone of this Honey Hazy Double IPA. Add in some amazing specialty malt from our good friends at Origin Malting and you have yourself a punchy, creamy and undeniably memorable jooos bomb! Mango, Orange and of course honey hit you up front and as you play it fades to just the right amount of sweet with low bitterness, and an ultra creamy mouth feel. This beer is magic and one we are hyper excited to share. Best suited for adventures, alternate worlds & hidden treasure, this whistle is going to take you places!
Style: IPA - Imperial / Double New England

Love Shack ('88)
(3.94/5)
A little old place where we can get together...Over a year ago we traded BFF necklaces with our good friends at Cabin and set our sights on a glorious collab! We present, LOVE SHACK, a Tropical, Zesty, Bright and Hazy, literal fruit bomb!! The nose is about as tropical as anything we have brewed and the slight tartness of the passionfruit adds a wonderful acidity. Glitter on the highway, you are going to want to meet us at the Love Shack!
Style: IPA - New England
ABV: 6.8% IBU: 30

Dial Up
(3.92/5)
Dial Up has long been a staff favourite for its more balanced and sessionable approach. It has a slightly tweaked malt bill from our usual hazy stash, it’s more medium bodied, and it has perfect balance between bitter and sweet. Hopped at 10g/L with Hallertau Blanc, El Dorado and Cascade it has amazing aromas of passionfruit, pear and pineapple, but finishes heavy on the citrus. In short, it’s lovely and worth the wait.
Style: IPA - New England
ABV: 6.5% IBU: 38

Summer Camp Crush II
(3.76/5)
A new summer crush!
The 2nd collaboration brew with our friends at Camp Brand Goods. This Paloma cocktail inspired beer is meant to be easy drinking with hints of agave, grapefruit and just the right amount of tart. Pairs well with the hot summer sun, friends at the lake and vintage lawn chairs.
Summer Camp Crush II may cause memories of sleepaway camp, late night campfires, and your first camp crush.
This collaboration beer, brewed with our amazing friends @campbrandgoods, is everything you want in a glass. Starting with a delicious sour base, we added salt, agave nectar, kaffir lime leaves and then fermented it with a load of grapefruit. The result is a refreshing, tart, citrus explosion that comes in at a perfectly sessionable 5.2%.
This is the beer for the deck. Hit it!
Style: Sour - Fruited
ABV: 5.2% IBU: 8

Hammer Pants
(3.8/5)
Get your dancing shoes on folks! Hammer Pants is a classic, double dry hopped, West Coast Pale Ale that has long been our taproom go to for being a delicious and clean expression of the style. Finally available in cans, this beer uses Amarillo as a base hop with heavy additions of Mosaic and Ella which brighten the corners and round out the prominent flavours of pine, stonefruit and citrus. The subtle bitterness and clean finish make this a ridiculously easy drinking go-to for pretty much anyone.
Style: Pale Ale - American
ABV: 4.8% IBU: 35

Sticky Bandits
(4.09/5)
Meet Sticky Bandits, a mammoth 10% triple west coast IPA. This delight is like Double Dare’s handsome older brother (think Brand from Goonies).
We took a very large classic west coast back bone and treated it with loads of late kettle additions of Galaxy, Cryo Amarillo, and Cryo Mosaic. We then dry hopped at a rather aggressive 10g/L with same combo which has driven the armoas to points of literal madness. Extremely well balanced, its dank, oily, & juicy, with bright citrus, passion fruit and red berry notes. It’s a pleasure to behold and yes at 10%, you will feel it.
Style: IPA - Triple
ABV: 10% IBU: 76

Power Wheels
(4.1/5)
Open this brew and the room will be filled with heavy mango, citrus and a touch of pine! Power Wheels drinks (too) easy, ending with a nice soft finish.
Brewed with the hard to procure Mosaic INCOGNITO (CO2 extracted hop resin), it's meant to solve the age old problem of how to jam in even more hop flavor without the typical pitfalls of going a wee bit too far, notably hop burn or grassy flavors.
Power Wheels, a hilariously hopped all Mosaic Hazy IPA with INCOGNITO, T90 and cryo Mosaic used through the entire process and then heavily dry hopped with Mosaic and cryo Mosaic. Should we say Mosaic one more time. MOSAIC!!
Style: IPA - New England
ABV: 6.3% IBU: 30

Happier Hour
(3.89/5)
Happier Hour is the combined effort of an amazing cast of folks who felt compelled to help during this unprecedented time of need. The proceeds from this refreshing pale ale will go directly to United Way of Calgary's Covid-19 Relief Fund, providing basic needs, community services and help for the most vulnerable.
This classic pale ale gives aromas of pine, floral and citrus with a welcoming amount of resinous and fruity hop flavour. It's very balanced, with very slight caramel notes. Make it a happier hour.
Style: Pale Ale - American

Cup of Ambition
(3.63/5)
Brewed for International Women's day, "Cup of Ambition" is a Mango & Raspberry Slushee Style Sour and it is our most heavily fruited beer to date. 25%!!!! of the total volume of this beer is Mango and Raspberry! So that's a yes, you will definitely taste some raspberry and mango. In addition to blowing the budget on fruit we also hopped this beer with the @pinkbootssociety blend which includes Cashmere, Ahtanum, Citra, Loral, and Sabro. That combination of acidity from the fruit, tropical and floral aromas from the hops and sweetness from the base beer are in delicate balance, but it is tasting FARESSSSH!!! Congrats ladies of '88, you made a banger!
