What are Calgary craft beer tours?

This seems to be a recurring question among people who are unfamiliar with craft beer and microbreweries in general. In Calgary, craft beer is a term used to describe beer made from microbreweries. The latter are, as the name entails, a lot smaller than commercial breweries.

Of course, craft beer is much more complex than this. We’ve barely scratched the surface here! If you’ve ever had the chance to try quality, handcrafted craft beer, then you know what we mean by that. It has to be tasted rather than described.

With that being said, let’s go back to the original question. What are craft beer tours?

As we said above, for a microbrewery to be considered a microbrewery in Calgary, it has to be a lot smaller than commercial breweries. As a result, micro-brewers need all the love and support that they can get… and this is why some of them like to offer Calgary craft beer tours.

Craft beer tours are great for people who are unfamiliar with the concept of craft beer and would like to learn more about its history and how it’s made. It is also great for people who simply want to have a good time with friends and taste some delicious, handcrafted brews. No matter which category you fall in, you will quickly come to realize that Calgary certainly has its fair share of craft beer tours, and that several of them you absolutely must experience at least once.

The world of craft beer is big, varied and beautiful, and now is as good a time as any to explore it. If you are feeling adventurous today, why don’t you drop by Calgary’s very own Minhas Micro Brewery?
