| - My absolute, 100% favourite thing to do within city limits in the summer is to take a spin around the farmer's market and then settle down in front of the Wild Rose Brewery for the afternoon. Great beer, warm sun, and lovely location in Currie Barracks... Yeah, I'm pretty sure there is nothing better. Any food can be gotten in the market, and there is a good crowd that likes to hang out in front.
Of course, the sheer quality of the beer helps. The seasonal brews tend to be interesting and nuanced, but their normal brews: Wraspberry, Velvet Fog, and Wred Wheat Ale are probably the most prolific (and all of them delicious). Wild Rose reflects so, so well on Canadian beer making techniques, proving once and for all that we are one of the best beer countries in the world.
I think it should be a requirement for all Calgarians to at least visit the brewery, but there is nothing like a cold, expertly crafted microbrew to throw a summer day to the next level. Go Calgary for sweet, sweet microbreweries.
