Best Brews In YYC
Hello Blondies,
According to #’s today is International Beer Day…now don’t get confused with National Beer Day which is April 7 so essentially this is your 6 month reminder to pour yourself a pint, which I’m sure if you’re a beer drinker you don’t need to be reminded, as for me I am not a big beer drinker, I don’t mind having a sip of someone else’s (pre-covid of course) especially when it comes to Craft breweries but usually I prefer a Gin.
This blog post will include a few Beers I have tried sips of AND one full can I drank, not only because did it taste great but it also does good. And for my non beer drinkers I thought I would include a couple brews that I love…at my fav coffee spots.
For Father’s Day, I decided to give my dad a Craft 6 pack here’s what was included:
Annex - Well Actually
Banded Peak Brewing Co - Summit Seeker
Cabin Brewing Co - Retrospectrum, probably my fav one I tasted.
Wild Rose - Wraspberry Ale
Eighty Eighty - Night Gallery
Russell Brewing Co - IP’eh
The one I wanted to Highlight seperate to the gift is from Born Colorado Brewing called Little Lion. This one is in collaboration with Love For Lewiston, it’s super light and refreshing, doesn’t sit too heavy which means it’s a great mountain top beer…I maybe speaking from experience.
Now onto the coffee!
I am a slight Starbucks addict, and while an Americano is always appreciated if the option is available I will take a coffee over a clover anyday! (If you want to see what other people like at Starbucks Check out this post!)
If you are looking for a slighter upscale bougie vibe…don’t worry I’m right there with you, I would recommend Analog coffee.
For a more purposeful cuppa I would personally suggest Monogram, especially their condensed milk latte or Societe which is just on 12th and I believe it’s called the Spanish Latte, it’s fantastic!
Pretty much anywhere aside for Phil & Sebastian, it’s far too bitter for me. There is a brunch spot near my house that brews P&S and I have actually gone to the coffee shop beside it and brought in my own coffee…I know it’s a major faux pas but I’m not paying $4 for a terrible cup of coffee…even if it’s bottomless.
