Just as the name suggests, Big Rock Brewery is an option you have when you are looking for a fresh brew of alcohol. For some people, however, just knowing the establishment is a brewery in Calgary is not enough to decide whether or not they want to go to. How did the brewery come to be? What do they really have to offer their customers? These are the questions people want answered.

The Brewery was Built on the Foundation of One Man’s Thirst

Back in 1984 beer was not so complicated. You had your choice between whether you wanted to drink lager A or lager B. Ed McNally, being a huge beer fan of the 1980s did not like how limited beer choices were. He was thirsty and he was thirsty for choice.

Ed decided he wanted to take the easy way out of the problem he was having. Sure, he could have spent time tracking down imported breweries and found some more choices. But, why go through all the trouble? Instead, he decided to establish his own brewery. Thus, Big Rock Brewery was born.

A Brewery with Your Best Interests in Mind

The motto of this brewery is and always has been that they will not take any shortcuts with the brews they create for their customers. This is a brewery that refuses to take any shortcuts when it comes to ingredients or brewing methods.

Bitter, Porter and Traditional were the first three beans this brewery used and they are still some of the more popular choices this brewery has to date. If you live in Calgary or you are just passing through and you happen to be a lover of beer, you are only cheating yourself if you do not stop by and see what this brewery has to offer you as a beer lover.
