About Boiling Oar
Small batch, craft beer.
Boiling Oar Brewing Company launched as a small-batch, craft brewery in Calgary, Alberta. We launched in March 2016 with the intention of producing approachable and flavourful beer. We aim to craft brews that everyone can appreciate, not just the "craft beer drinker". We are a small, locally-owned company whose objective is to make the best beer possible while impacting our community in a positive way, day in and out.
Calgary is known to have some of highest quality water in the world, in addition to our media filtration, it is the ideal water chemistry for brewing. Since we are located in the heart of barley country, our beer is crafted with the highest quality malt and we even source some of our hops from Southeastern Alberta.
OUR TAPROOM IS OPEN!
In March 2024, 8 years after launching our brewery we opened our Taproom to the public! We how have the opportunity to welcome people from all over to our facility to try all that we have to offer. Come on by the taproom to say hi and give our approachable and flavorful beers a whirl.

OUR BEER
KOLSCH
Don't let this cold=fermented ale fool you into thinking it is a lager, because it’s not! We've borrowed a beer style specific to Köln, Germany and created something dangerously serene. This crisp, clean ale sits in at 5% and has been delicately hopped with "Nearly Noble" German hops to 20 IBU's. Light in colour and picking up subtle notes of spice and apple. Our easy drinker pairs well with a patio and some vitamin D.
Availability: Year Round
CITRA BLONDE
Our Citra Blonde has a subdued citrus profile. It is a ‘classic style meets modern hop variety’ beer and your new go-to for the warmer months ahead! It comes to the table at 4.3% ABV and 20 IBU.
Availability: Year Round
LAGER
Are you looking for a classic ‘go-to’ lager to crush on football Sunday’s? Then look no further. This clean crisp brew offers up the perfect smooth and balanced taste profile. 4.5% ABV.

HAZY PALE
This dank and citrus-y flavour bomb is our latest edition to our mainstay lineup. With notes of mango and melon that compliment the citrus undertones this brew lands at 6.3% ABV and a smooth 30-ish IBU's.
