Wilder than our average tallboy and a touch tamer than typical barrel-aged bottles, WILD THINGS come perfectly portioned.
THE FIRST: CHAISE LONGUE
WILD THING: 001 | Table Beer, 2.9% ABV | Lemon, HAY, WHITE PEPPER
As soon as we tasted this tiny delight, we knew we had something special. Originally a taproom exclusive, we knew we had to release Chaise Longue after its initial debut, where it won the hearts of beer judges and beer lovers alike.
Way fuller in body than it is high in alcohol content, this ‘lil saison smells like summer and it tastes like it too. Expect fresh cut lemons, herbs, hay, and field flowers. High fizz factor, and a crisp, dry finish.
2023 ALBERTA BEER AWARDS GOLD MEDAL WINNER (LOW ALC BEER)
CHAISE LONGUE IS HERE TO STAY. UNLIKE ITS SEASONAL SISTERS, OUR INNAGURAL WILD THING IS AVAILABLE YEAR-ROUND.
“WILD THINGS. YOU MAKE OUR HEARTS SING”
Each beer from the Wild Thing collection is slightly experimental, highly crushable, and utterly unique. Get to know past releases and start dreaming about what’s coming next.

White Peach Wild Ale - Fermented on 30% by weight whole white peaches
Juice Boxes, White Wine, Field Flowers
Juicy and dry, the citrus and floral notes balance the bushels of peaches (30% by weight) at the forefront of this wild ale. Low carbonation and faint bitterness keep things undeniably drinkable.

Wild IPA, 7.3% ABV
Tangerine, Orange Lollipop, Funk
Heavy on the hops and zesty with notes of orange and grapefruit made all the more funky and fragrant after messing around in barrels with our house culture. If you can imagine catching wafts of a ripe mixed fruit bowl on the breeze, that’s pretty much where we are.

Not everything goes according to plan
-
Alberta Wild Ale, 4.5% ABV
Wheat Fields, Barnyard, Lime.
Rustic, refreshing, and funky, this wafts of our shared Albertan stomping grounds—but more pasture than pavement. Think lime zest, fresh wheat, hay bales, and even goats! It’s highly carbonated, beautifully balanced, and finishes by tugging at your tart strings. 100% Alberta Malt (@hogarthmalt) and Hops (@wvhops). Fermented in stainless with our house culture of wild yeast and bacteria.

Modern Saison, 5.7%
𝒀𝒖𝒛𝒖, 𝑼-𝑷𝒊𝒄𝒌 𝑭𝒂𝒓𝒎, 𝒁𝒊𝒑𝒑𝒚Made with the 2022 Pink Boots Hop Blend, this beer is a weird and wonderful blend of a juicy, hazy IPA and a wild saison. Brewed for serious drinkability, this beer has light and bright acidity with a pillowy mouthfeel. Think Messing With the Settings, Chaise Lounge and one of our black-can hazies teaming up to start the most kickass riotgrrl band of the 21st century.

Earl Grey Wild Ale 5.7% ABV
Orange Blossom, Lemon Peel, Sun Tea.Citrusy, fresh, and faintly floral, this pinky popper is sure to be the life of the garden party. Fermented and dry-hopped before being steeped with black tea and bergamot peel, it goes down easy like Sunday morning tea.

Bush Berry Wild Ale, 6.2% ABV
Notes of: Fruit Punch, Rose Petals, Compote.
Bright, berry-forward, and dry to finish, this wild one is for you if you’re into natural wines, picture-perfect pours, and shoving handfuls of raspberries into your mouth instead of the basket at the U-pick farm. Basically tastes like a flood of memories.

-
Strawberry Wild Ale, 6.4% ABV.
Notes of: Fruit Leather, Wildflower Honey, Herbs de Provence.
Fruity, herbal, and arresting. You could make yourself some strawberry and wildflower honey fruit leather for a picnic among the herbs in Provence, or you could drink this beer. Ideally you do the latter followed by the former and tell us how accurate the comparison is.

-
Watermelon Mint Wild Ale, 3.7% ABV
Notes of: Cucumber Rind, Agua Fresca, Limeade
400kg of cool, crisp watermelon blends with freshly picked mint for the ultimate summer sipper. Lightly funky with a refreshing cucumber-esque splash, this perfectly balanced brew is ideal for savoring the last warm days of the season.

Hibiscus Wild Ale, 4.0% ABV
Minute Maid, Ice Pops, Lemon Zest. Unveiling the unexpected, this bewitching synergy of berries, fruit punch, & lemon zest is made magic by a touch of funk and a pleasantly tart finish. Inspired by the wickedly popular Potion Approaching, this rosé tinted blend of wild beers is a light, refreshing, and super-crushable libation that will leave you spellbound.
This is our smallest run of Wild Things to date, so we’re going to make it very clear - this is a taproom exclusive that will be gone in the wave of a wand.
