Each of these tour stops includes enough time to sample other styles or to grab some snacks for your group. If you want to stay longer for a full meal, no problem, just let us know.
Brewery Tour
All Calgary Brewery Tours include an exclusive behind-the-scenes walk-through on the brewery floor at one of Calgary's best breweries. You and your group will learn through an easy-to-follow guided presentation what each piece of equipment does, and how it is used to craft award-winning Alberta Beer. From the silo and the malt mill to the brite tanks and canning lines, your group will see it all.
How Beer Is Made

Yeast, Water, Hops and Malt all play an important role in determining what style of beer you drink. Your group's dedicated guide will explain how each ingredient is obtained, used, and how they can be combined to form hundreds of different styles of beer.
Beer History
Learning a little bit about the history of beer along the way is a great way to understand more about the beers of today, and where things are headed. Throughout the activity, your Calgary Brewery Tour includes trivia and insight into famous brands and styles of beer.
