RED DEER, AB – Prairie-focused beer blog On Beer reports that Alberta’s newest craft brewery opened its doors earlier this month in Red Deer.
Founded by brothers and home-brewers Charlie and Graeme Bredo, Troubled Monk Brewery officially launched on June 13th, and is offering cans, growlers and kegs of several brands out of its retail store, including Golden Gaetz Golden Ale (named in honour of Red Deer’s founder Leonard Gaetz), Pesky Pig Pale Ale (commemorating Francis, a pig that escaped the slaughterhouse and lived on the lam for 5 months in 1990), Open Road American Brown Ale, and Homesteader Saison.
For details on store hours, brand availability and more, see the Troubled Monk Facebook page.

- Greg C. is drinking an IPA W/ Columbus & Simcoe by Burdock at King & DufferinVery juicy and aromatic - pineapple, mandarin, kumquat, bit of muscat grape - with a balanced bitterness. Hides the abv very well.
- Greg C. is drinking an Adaptation : Mosaic by Sawdust City Brewing Co. at King & DufferinAn interesting experiment. The dry hop adds complexity to a simple style, but also a touch of harshness in the finish. Still enjoyed it tho.
- Greg C. is drinking a Wild North: Piña Grande by Lake of Bays Brewing Company at King & DufferinA simple and clean golden ale with hints of lemon and pineapple. Decent enough summer refresher.
- Greg C. is drinking a LAGERSHED Original by Shawn & Ed Brewing Co. at King & DufferinI've previously found this beer to be quite sweet, but that's now kept in check with some sharp herbal hops and a rather dry & crisp finish.
- Greg C. is drinking a Karma Citra IPA (Single Hop) by Great Lakes Brewery at Allen'sAlways a pleasure when this beauty comes back in the GLB IPA rotation.
