Prairie Bears Prairie Berry

From the Producer;
"Starting a cider company may not seem like a linear career path for Kelli, a doctor and Brett, a heavy duty mechanic. But Prairie Bears Cider Co. is no side gig. Making cider out of rescued fruit started as a creative outlet for us during Kelli’s residency in 2017 but it quickly became something we turned into a way of life. Now we’re tending to our growing prairie orchard near Alberta Beach and crafting ciders that reflect both our commitment to quality and our love for the community we live in."
GrainHenge Forestburg Bourbon Style No.1
$109.99
From Troubled Monk's GrainHenge Distillery in Red Deer Alberta comes this Bourbon-style whisky made from a mash of Corn, Malted Barley, Malted Rye, and Malted Wheat. It was matured in new American Oak casks #3 and #4 char levels before being bottled at 44.1% ABV.
Producer Description
"The Spirit of Forestburg - Nestled amongst a rich agricultural landscape and the Battle River, sits the community of Forestburg, a community shaped by generations of agriculture, grit, and dedication to the prairie way of life.
For decades, grain elevators have watched our communities grow and evolve into what they are today, bearing witness to the harvests, relentless winters, and generations of friends, family and neighbours.
Our GrainHenge Forestburg whisky is the ode to the rural Alberta lifestyle and the grain elevator that has stood tall, affixed on the horizon, a timekeeper of stories of generations past. It’s made in small batches by folks whose attention to detail speaks for itself. The kind of people who don’t mind rolling up their sleeves, putting in the hours, and doing things the right way, even when no one’s watching. You can taste that kind of honesty. It shows up in carefully selected ingredients, in the way the barrels rest, and in the patience it takes to let a whisky become what it’s meant to be.
GrainHenge isn’t fussy. It isn’t trying to impress you with big speeches or fancy words. It’s just a damn good whisky built for people who work hard, take pride in what they do, and appreciate a moment that feels earned.
Pour it neat, sip it slow and let it remind you of where you come from, and where you’re headed next."

"8.5% Abv
This brew was built on a rich malt bill of flaked wheat and oats, giving it a smooth, silky body with a hint of sweetness. The star ingredient was a unique lot of Nelson Sauvin hops from Freestyle Hops in New Zealand. Grown in a region with its own distinct soil and climate, these hops bring bold tropical fruit and gooseberry aromas. The result is one of the most distinctive flavour profiles we’ve ever crafted.

A blend of barrel-aged golden mixed culture beers with strawberries
6.1% ABV
Wild Beer Release: 032
We ain’t seen anything so pretty as the opaque, perfectly ruddy rose gold contained in these bottles. And, lucky for everyone, it tastes just as stunning. This blend of barrel-aged mixed culture beers smacks of freshly picked, perfectly ripe strawberries. Basically, it’s a dream of summer realized in winter.
Strawberries, while singularly tasty, can be terribly tricky to brew with. But sometimes, the trickiest ingredients make for the treatiest beers, so it just made sense to brew this to be 40% strawberries by weight. First, we selected three different base beers to experiment with: one Lambic-inspired, one a mixed culture Saison, and one a Brett Saison. Then we refermented each barrel on the fruit in isolation before blending the three to taste—and taste they do! Turns out, individually hand-processing a whole pallet of strawberries until 1 am pays off.
In addition to the strawberries that are the absolute star of this show, those who drink of Rare Hearts will be treated to balancing beats of pleasantly bitter hops, subtle acidity, and just enough funk to keep things spunky. Get your hands on a bottle of this atypical libation or try a spurt of it in our taproom.
