Prairie Beer

Everyone talks about the west coast pale ales of B.C. or the Belgian-inspired strong ales of Quebec. The Ontario brewers get the benefit of being in our nation’s largest market. However, out here on the prairies, we hold some hidden gems of beer just as impressive as the beers from elsewhere. Now, I could keep them a secret so there are more for us, but I think beer drinkers across Canada and the world need to know more about Western Canada’s craft brewers. So below is a short rundown on the prairie micros.
