Sheepdog Brewing - Canmore

I'm an IPA guy and have tried their WC and NE style beers and they're quite awful. Hadn't been there in years, tried again today and still terrible

A Taste of the Tropics in the Rockies !!!!Nestled in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, Sheepdog Brewing in Canmore offers a delightful surprise for beer enthusiasts with their Coconut Porter. Their beer menu is a testament to their dedication to quality and creativity.As a fan of dark beers and exotic flavors, I was intrigued by the idea of a coconut-infused porter, and I must say, it did not disappoint.Upon pouring, the Coconut Porter presents a deep, rich mahogany hue with a creamy, tan head that invites you in with its tantalizing aroma. Notes of roasted malt and chocolate waft through the air, hinting at the complex flavors to come.What sets Sheepdog Brewing's Coconut Porter apart is its masterful balance. The coconut infusion is pronounced enough to make a statement, yet it never overwhelms the classic characteristics of a well-crafted porter. The marriage of toasted coconut with the subtle bitterness of the dark malts creates a harmonious symphony on the palate, leaving a lingering, satisfying finish that beckons you back for more.Whether you're a seasoned beer connoisseur or a casual enthusiast, this brew is a must-try. It's a testament to Sheepdog Brewing's creativity and dedication to quality, as they've managed to craft a truly unique and memorable beer that captures the essence of both the rocky mountain wilderness and the sun-soaked shores of a distant island.

Excellent place for après ski or after bike drinks. Or just to get together with friends. Great beer and atmosphere. Right off the bike trails.

We visited on a Saturday early afternoon. There was a steady stream of people through, but we did not have trouble finding seats.We tried a flight of beer and one cider. The pineapple IPA was a favourite!

Cool spot in an industrial area, the brewery is upstairs. The coconut porter went down a treat on the drizzly day. High tops and some tables with chairs down the middle. We went at 4pm on a Thursday and it we got a table but it really started filling up! No frills atmosphere, industrial like the area!
