- People Skills
Beer | 5.2% • Our crushable beer is light, refreshing, and gets along with everybody. This smooth, lightly hopped ale offers beautiful mouthfeel and a golden crystal-clear appearance. It's a real crowd pleaser.
- Red Rage
Red Ale | 5.6% • Roasty like coffee, toasty like fresh bread, and makes your mouth water for more. We put just enough hops in to remind you what they’re capable of. This ale is medium boded and easy to drink.
- Golden Hour
Hazy Pale | 5.5% • Golden Hour beer mirrors the hazy golden hue of the sun on the horizon. With each delicious sip you’ll experience a burst of peach, mango, and pineapple, reminiscent of your favorite tropical punch! Make any hour the Golden Hour!
- Departure
West Coast IPA | 6.7% • Our departure began with a road trip to Yakima, home to the world’s finest hops, sparking a new evolution of our West Coast IPA. With grapefruit, stone fruit, and citrus notes, it’s crisp, aromatic, and breaks away from the ordinary. It’s built for those who carve their own path!
- Late to The Party
Hazy IPA | 7.2% • A vibrant New England IPA brewed with Citra, El Dorado and Riwaka hops that are bursting with bright citrus notes, pineapple, and pink grapefruit. Smooth and juicy, it's the perfect way to catch up if you're late to the party!

Sour | 5.9% • We had a lively debate about the greatest berry on earth — and our Prairie-born team quickly agreed: Saskatoon berries win! They bring back memories of purple hands from berry picking and gramma’s famous pie. Proudly grown in the Canadian prairies, these berries inspired a brand new beer.
- Local Legend
Light Lager | 3.5% • Crisp, clean, and endlessly refreshing, boasting the delicious flavour of Canadian malt. Brewed for the everyday legend who wants a high-quality experience today, without compromising tomorrow!

- Zero Golden Hour (473ml)
Hazy Pale | 0.5% • Zero Golden Hour is all the glow, none of the buzz. Same golden haze, same tropical vibes - peach, mango, pineapple - now at just 0.5%. Whether you're on the clock, on the trails, or just taking it easy, this brew brings the good times without the alcohol.
