A Microburst is an intense small-scale downdraft produced by a thunderstorm. With the help of science, we have created a new iteration of microburst: A powerful deluge of flavour from new world hops that cascades your olfactory senses with tropical juiciness. The Microburst Hazy IPA will be gone as quickly as it arrived.

Welcome to the beer version of spring skiing. Mount Crushmore is audacious like wearing a vintage one-piece snowsuit with fluorescent racing stripes, effervescent like champagne powder and eminently crushable like hard-charging fresh tracks at the local hill on a sun drenched weekday morning. Fermented cold and conditioned for guaranteed crispiness. You have arrived at the pinnacle of pilsner.

This is a beer that embodies adventure. A departure from the classic IPA, it has a deep red colour from Alberta’s world class barley, balanced by a notorious line up of hops. All this packaged in a beer designed for the drinker who has their eyes on the summit.

Last call, first chair is this beers mantra and it can help on both ends of that fun. An aggressive cold side addition of whole bean coffee, heaps of milk sugar and Red Shed’s roasted barley bury taste buds under a turbid melange of excellence. All this packed into a super sessionable ABV that can help dig up fun on any day off.

1980 - The year the Flames arrived in Calgary and made the Stampede Corral their home. Every seat and all standing room sold out months before the first puck drop. Bench seating and high boards were trademarks for this classic arena. Celebrate the end of an era and the Corral’s 70+ year history with juicy hop flavours in this retro can! With juicy flavours and notes of citrus aromas, it's best paired with pocket dogs, loaded nachos, and the euphoria of a goal light. Here's to another great season. GO. FLAMES. GO.

Welcome the change of seasons with Guavamorphology, an ultra-refreshing kettle-soured gose packed to the rafters with juiced pink guavas and Ekuanot hops to create an aromatic citrus fruit bomb! A simple malt base of craft 2-row barley and flaked wheat was infused with modest boil additions of Himalayan rock salt and lactose, delivering a pillowy soft mouthfeel and an intensely refreshing finish that pairs all too well with the spring melt. So switch gears and step away from winter into this lacto-soured marvel of hop fruited funk!

Sore and cold one pitch left when your legs give out and start shaking. A Sign of taking yourself to the edge; like we did with this beer. Local malt and an epically large dose of hops pumps Disco Legs full of flavour. Find your own groove and let your disco legs take you to the dance floor.

Wedged between dark roasted malts and full-flavoured cereal grains, Chockstone is brewed for shorter days and longer nights. A beer that matches the autumn season and suspends itself high in the mountain landscape, built entirely with our favourite Alberta malts form Origin and Red Shed.

Named after intrepid Canadian climber, Vikki Weldon. This fruited sour is packed with raspberries, mint and lemon tea for a punchy delivery of floral and citrus notes, topped with a dose of Pink Boots hop blend! Suzanne helped brew this one!

Razzlands Raspberry Lager slithers out of the Badlands with a bite of tart raspberry and a whole lot of attitude. Long-time buds Banded Peak and Dandy team up again to celebrate some of Alberta's epic landscapes. This beer is as bold as a rattlesnake, with a refreshing taste reminiscent of a cool breeze in Drumheller.

A tribute to climbers, pub heroes, and Suzanne alike. Not just pouring technique, but a legendary ice climbing move that has been helping climbers ascend challenging ice routes.

Banded Peak Brewery in Calgary is an absolute gem! After a long day at work in the Manchester area, this place is perfect for unwinding. The atmosphere is fantastic, with cool music that sets the mood just right. The staff here are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, especially Cat, who always knows what's going on and was even watering the flowers during my visit. One of the highlights is the range of activities available. They have cribbage tournaments, which are a blast, and there's also cornhole for some fun competition. The brewery is kid-friendly, making it a great spot for families. The dog-friendly patio is another plus, and they even have bug spray repellent available in the bathrooms - a thoughtful touch! The food is delicious, and the beer flights are a great way to sample their awesome brews. Banded Peak Brewery has truly created a welcoming and engaging environment. Highly recommend this spot for a relaxing and enjoyable time! ---

Banded Peak is one of my favorite breweries in Calgary. The Chinook Saison is hands down the best summer beer. I recently did the Barley Belt Bike Tour and stopped in to try their beer and meet the owners. Amazing experience, definitely try their beer and stop in at the brewery.

Cozy space, great food and awesome drinks! Staff is friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. The bartenders nails were on point- nice little bonus.

Enjoyed a fun evening here over a refreshing flight and couple of grilled cheese sandwiches. The caprese was epic (that sour dough!). The bacon one on brioche was also delicious. Highly recommend a side of the onion chip dip too. Friendly service (thanks to our patient server at the bar for all the beer details!), cozy patio and dogs allowed too. Not all the beers were really my cuppa, but that's the beauty of a flight, there will always be a surprise and something good.

Had lots of fun stopping at banded peak while doing the bike tour. The fennel sausage was really something. Good to see they made good use of such a small space.
