We love local brews!
Medicine Hat's local brewing scene is just getting started with three great new breweries, Hell's Basement Brewery, Medicine Hat Brewing Company and Travois Ale Works along with our own craft distillery Grit City. With brews such as All Hops for a Basement IPA and Sin Bin Pale Ale you know there's a story worth checking out. Here's some brief info on our local breweries (check our their websites for more!):
 Travois Ale WorksWed-Sat 3pm-9pm Sun 1pm-5pm 612 3 St. SE Phone: (587) 289-1000– Travois Ale Works began as a collective of like-minded people who spend most of their time outdoors...with beers. Revolutionary American and traditional European style ales brewed in small batches right here in downtown Medicine Hat and available only in our public tasting room. The lineup will change continuously, depending on what Jacques decides to brew. It is what we are about. We only brew 7 barrels per batch. With only 107 pints from a full barrel you should plan accordingly because when it’s gone, it’s gone. So, come often and try them all while they last!
 Hell’s Basement BrewerySun-Wed 1pm-7pm Thu-Sat 1pm-9pm 18 St. SW Phone: (403) 487-0489 – This brewery’s name was inspired by the stories of Rudyard Kipling’s travels and famous quote: “This part of the country seems to have all hell for a basement, and the only trap door appears to be in Medicine Hat.” Four courageous beer lovers from Medicine Hat along with their families, friends, and countless members of the community worked tirelessly for six months to bring quality, craft beer to Medicine Hat. We take pride in our community, and we have worked with a variety of local businesses, tradespeople, and artists to make our dream a reality.
 Medicine Hat Brewing Company Thur-Sat 12pm-9pm Sun 10am-5pm 1366 Brier Park Dr. NW Phone: (403) 525-1260– You’ll have an early 1900’s experience when you are in this brewery where strangers become friends and the little things are celebrated. In 1912, the Medicine Hat Brewing Company began serving old fashioned lager, ale, and stout to our city’s early, thirsty residents. When the Temperance Movement picked up, this popular brewery - One of Medicine Hat’s first - was forced to close. But you cannot keep a good thing down. Over a century later, the Medicine Hat Brewing Company name has been dusted off and again serves thirsty, hard-working Hatters Timeless Craft Beer.
 Grit City Distillery Tue-Sat 11:00am-8:00pm 680 S. Railway St. Phone:(306) 216-7506 – The story is like those in the burgeoning craft brewing industry, which bills itself a rebellious answer to mass produced brew. Small batch craft distillery producing a variety of vodka, gin, rums, and whiskeys; using traditional botanicals and locally sourced ingredients. Grit City is like Gas City, but with a bit more oomph. Oomph- physically described as a gut-check, fist pump. Grit City Distillery is a creation of hard work, passion, and grit. They are a local Husband/Wife team, with "the customer is always right " attitudes.
