Rotational Tap Alert! If you haven’t heard, this month’s featured tap is Chaise Longue from our pals at @estbrew 🍻A beautifully crisp Saison-style table beer brewed for ultimate drinkability at just 2.9% ABV.
It smells like summer in a glass, with bright notes of fresh cut lemon, crisp herbs, and wild field flowers. Light, refreshing, and dangerously easy to enjoy.
On tap for a limited time, so swing by and give it a try before it’s gone! 🍻
The people have spoken!
Your champion, one of our first ever white cans, originally made all the way back in 2021, and ready to be brewed for a record setting fourth time, is WE ARE FLOATING IN SPACE! Last time around it was just barely beaten by Float Along, but this time, WAFIS won with a commanding lead.
We’re gonna get busy brewing this creamy dreamer (for the first time since 2023) real soon, with its re-release slated for June. Just in time for Father's Day! Keep your eyes on the prize, and favourite our account to make sure you don't miss it.
🍋🟩 RE-RELEASE: Chaise Lite Lime
Table Beer With Black Limes, 2.9%
𝑪𝒊𝒕𝒓𝒖𝒔 𝑹𝒊𝒏𝒅, 𝑫𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒅 𝑯𝒆𝒓𝒃𝒔, 𝑩𝒍𝒂𝒄𝒌 𝑷𝒆𝒑𝒑𝒆𝒓
After flying off the shelves last year, we knew we had to bring this smash hit back for the first warm longue weekend of the year. Loomi Lime, aka black lime, is a dried lime that adds an earthy, slightly funky depth and intrigue, brightening the citrus notes in the base beer while weaving in dried herbs and black pepper. It’s zippy, well-balanced, and the ultimate heat slayer.

🍇 FRESH CUT: Chaise Piquette
Table Beer With Grape Pomace, 2.9%
𝑩𝒆𝒓𝒓𝒚 𝑩𝒖𝒃𝒍𝒚, 𝑳𝒆𝒎𝒐𝒏 𝑾𝒆𝒅𝒈𝒆𝒔, 𝑯𝒐𝒏𝒆𝒚𝒅𝒆𝒘
We know what you’re thinking: What the heck is grape pomace? Easy! It’s the leftover skins, seeds, and stems from the winemaking (or in this case, grape beer making) process. Traditionally, piquette is made by adding water directly to the pomace, pulling the remaining delicate flavors, aromas, and color. So of course, we had to try this method with our most versatile table beer: Chaise! It’s insanely crushable with berries, citrus, and melon in every sip . Time’s up, sparkling wine — at 2.9%, you can’t go wrong. This one’s made to enjoy all.day.longue.

🍻 It’s National Homebrew Day so we want to give it up for all the homebrewers pushing boundaries, and just straight vibing on the art & science of the best beverage! 🍻
As we’re proud to say, homebrewing is a big part of our story. In fact, we’re still brewing some of the recipes from back in the day! Part house, part brew lab, The Establishment started as a place where a group of friends gathered, brewed and drank beer, and lived the good life. Brandon and Mike had started homebrewing together after meeting in university, later being introduced to Dave through Calgary’s incredible homebrew community, The Cowtown Yeast Wranglers.
The epic Calgary flood of 2013 did its worst to this Erlton home. Mike was living in the basement at the time and lost everything he owned. For days they pulled debris and mud out of that basement, with the strength of friendships bringing The Establishment back to its feet. The unforeseen benefit of all this destruction was that a completely gutted basement was the perfect space to set up a new home-brew system. The brewing and experimentation rose to new levels, and soon the medals from various home-brew comps were rolling in.
The original Establishment has long since been demolished, but its memory lives on in our taproom where friends (old and new) are always welcome and great beer is always on tap.
🍻 Are you a homebrewer? Come on down to the taproom today and show us your Yeast Wranglers or CHA membership, and you'll get 15% off any draft in house!
As the April snow falls and melts and falls again, it comes the time of year when we start looking forward to the May Melt!
