The Establishment Brewing Company

Award winning craft beer! Lots of different beers on tap and beer to go! They age their barrel-aged beer here and it looks like the place where all the magic happens. A plus here are super clean washrooms. Perfect food menu for snacking and have a beer on a sunny day. Staff is super friendly and knowledgeable.

We just hosted a Family Reunion (85 family members attended). Communication was excellent! Pick-up & Drop-off was easy! Both Kegs were drained by our last evening 😀 The Establishment Brewing Co. was one of the reasons our Family Reunion was a huge success!!!

As a newcomer here,It is the first time for me to explore Calgary’s craft beer scene! The integration of the brewing space and taproom is fantastic, and the vibe of chatting under the beer barrels is great! I started with a tasting set and discovered today’s highlight: a hazy pale ale called *Afternoon Delight*. It’s bursting with fruity aromas—absolutely amazing!

Cozy brewery with some vegan food options from Canela Bakery. They have some kids games and markers/crayons at the front which is thoughtful. Some parking in the parking lot and on the street. There is some merch at the front. Small room you can book for events. Overall cool, cozy vibe.

Reddit said this is the best brewery in Calgary. I haven't been to all of them, but I can safely say Reddit was probably right on this one. They have a fantastic beer selection, with some amazing Hazy IPAs, and Czech lagers served with proper respect to the tradition.

The best in the city! A group of Ontario craft beer nerds spent 5 days in Calgary (supporting Canadians). I’ve been to over 580 breweries, this was the best we found. Great fresh NEIPAs, nice fresh lagers and great staff. Patio was great too.

Amazing decor with a cute outside space! Love the style and furniture, this crew has awesome taste in interior decorating! And super friendly guys behind the bar. We enjoyed a flight, a great sample of some awesome beer! Definitely one of my faves 🙌🏼

I'm in a lot of breweries I find establishment to be very tasteful they're very personable & passionate about the craft. The grand opening was amazing I tried a flight, I was extremely impressed. The staff work very well together, the decor was top-shelf a lot of thought has gone into this simple but extremely well done " establishment" the chairs are comfortable the ambience is delightful. The bathrooms are nice, don't let this place pass by you'll definitely be "Wowed"

One of our favourites, Always make a stop whenever downtown! Highly recommend Afternoon Delight and Skyrocket IPA!

Nice little place with table service at the patio. The frozen blackberry sour hit the spot on a nice warm day. Service was friendly.

We were excited to try The Establishment Brewing Company as my buddy had told me good things. It's located next to the Annex Ale Project. We dropped in on a Sunday afternoon (around 3:15pm) and it was reasonably busy. Lots of tables inside and out. 11 beers on tap along with some non-alcoholic options (True Büch Kombucha and a Kaffeeklatsch cold brew). There's three pour options (150mL, 330mL and 500mL). - Flight - we decided to try the transcontinental pop ($3.75), jam rock ($3.25), root down ($4.00) and blackbird ($4.00). Their kettle sour collaboration with Blood Brothers Brewing had me excited but the flavours were mute; only detected a hint of coconut. The blackberry sour with vanilla sounded promising but didn't have any fruity flavour. The barrel-aged golden sour with ginger had notes of lemongrass but the end note was harsh and bitter. The barrel-aged mixed culture sour with black currants was our least favourite. The bruin really overpowered everything. The pours were very generous but we didn't finish any of them (a first for us). Wanted to love TEBC but didn't enjoy any of their beers. 2.5 stars.

One of the newest breweries in the city. Like many, they've opened up in the Barley Belt next door to well established Annex. The space is nice and has a good feel. There's lots of standing room at the front with larger tables at the back of the tap room. They don't have a patio but it looks like they could add one in the parking lot out front like many other breweries in the city. They had nice beers on tap during my visit. I went with a flight to try a few out. All were pretty good. The one thing I didn't like about the flight was the tray. It's a little wonky when putting it down and there was a little splashing.

Wasn't on our radar, but what a hidden gem. Doing some great craft beer. Definitely worth the visit. Will be taking some of their brews home with us.
