THREE HILLS, AB – Alberta beer news site The Daily Beer reports that a new nanobrewery will be launching soon in Three Hills, a small town located 120 km northeast of Calgary.
Prairie Brewing Company has been founded by Ryan Ferguson, Mark Ferguson (no relation) and Darren Kester. The company recently received AGLC approval, and brewing has started on a 1 barrel system.
Prairie will be opening up with three core brands – Prairie IPA, Prairie Brown and Prairie Wit – with availability limited to the local market while on the current small system. The partners hope to move to a 20 barrel system within a year, at which point the brand line-up and distribution is likely to expand.
For more details, see the full Daily Beer article, and the Prairie Brewing website.

- Greg C. is drinking a Farmhouse Brett by The Six Brewing Co. at The Six Brewing Co.Nicely balanced between fruity & funky Brett characteristics. Melon, Mayer lemon, touch of bandaid. Fairly dry finish. Good stuff!
- Greg C. is drinking an I Swear Sugarpants, It Was Your Idea 2019 by Sawdust City Brewing Co. at King & DufferinNot sure why there are separate annual entries for this beer, but I’ll go with it. Has cocoa, cinnamon, vanilla & cream notes as promised.
- Greg C. is drinking a Low Voltage by Powerhouse Brewing Company at King & DufferinClean & simple golden ale. Needs a bit more body to be a true cream ale, IMO, but still a well-crafted thirst-quencher.
- Greg C. is drinking a Ryevalry Roggenbier by Mill Street Brewery at King & DufferinFruity esters and sweet malt dominate, with earthy/peppery rye providing a nice backnote. Hint of banana bread as well. Nicely done.
- Greg C. is drinking a Chocolate Cheesecake Milkshake Stout by Rochester Mills Beer Co. at King & DufferinThe flavour delivers what the name promises. And like most cheesecake it’s too sweet for me personally. But I can still see the attraction.
