CALGARY, AB – Big Rock Brewery and WestJet Airlines have announced that Big Rock Grasshöpper wheat ale is now available on all WestJet flights that offer bar service.
WestJet has supported local food businesses for some time, offering sandwiches and wraps from popular local delis and restaurants across the country as part of their buy on board menu. This partnership marks the first time that a regional brewery is represented in their beverage selection.
Grasshöpper is available for $6 a can on all WestJet flights of 2 hours or greater, with Molson Canadian and Coors Light being the other two beer options.

- Greg C. is drinking a Put A Cherry On Hop - Across the Nation by Red Racer at King & Dufferin9 months old so hops have receded a bit, but the cherry notes are still there & have an interesting spiced character. Not very milky though.
- Greg C. is drinking a Breaking Point by Kensington Brewing Company at King & DufferinTicks all the boxes for the style - hazy, hoppy, juicy, full & soft on the palate. Hides the 8.5% very well. Nice stuff.
- Greg C. is drinking a Candle Burner by Wellington Brewery at King & DufferinI’m usually not a fan of coffee IPAs - the combo rarely works for me - but this hits the right balance with coffee that’s fruity not roasty.
- Greg C. is drinking a The Ugly by Henderson Brewing Co at King & DufferinDark & sweet Belgian ales aren’t usually my bag but this is a pretty good one. Notes of coffee, cocoa, dark cherry, bit of peppery yeast.
- Greg C. is drinking a Convergence w/ Strawberry, Rhubarb, Raspberry by Kensington Brewing Company at King & DufferinStrawberry is there, raspberry and rhubarb less so. Base beer isn’t overly sour but still a nice tartness. Mellow but enjoyable.
