Description

Just like the large rock near Okotoks, just south of Calgary, for which it is named, Big Rock Brewery is a unique feature of Alberta. Brewed under the Reinheitsgebot, the strict Bavarian Purity Law of 1516, the brewery's beers all only have four ingredients: malted barley, hops, yeast, and water. Because Alberta produces some of the finest two-row barley for brewing in the world, the beers made here are truly a local product. The brewery boasts that it is one of the most modern in North America and offers informative tours to back up its claim, complete with the chance to taste four different beers after checking out the brewing facilities and learning about the brewing process.
