Wild Rose Brewery,is a small craft brewery established in Calgary, Alberta, Canada in 1996.The brewery prides itself on their beer using all natural, local, unpasteurized ingredients with no preservatives, and a “dash of Alberta attitude”. Wild Rose Beer is only available in Alberta.[1]

Location[1]

Their Taproom is located in the Curry Barracks which includes a full restaurant and pub, and is highly rated on social media websites.[3][4]. Wild Rose also opened up a new brewery in the Foothills Industrial area in February 2014 strictly for production. There is where their core six beer is produced. Wild Rose also produces Seasonal beers that allow for their brewers to be innovative and creative with roughly 6 beers a year.

Despite the construction and constant changes being made in the Curry Barracks, Wild Rose Brewery does not plan on going anywhere!
