Balzac Craft Brewing Company was born in 2017 after a conversation about creating a new legacy inspired us to follow a dream instead of living for the status quo.
A long history in oil and gas has blessed our founders with opportunities to travel to so many incredible places. In each location, they made a point to seek out and enjoy great craft beers from local brewers. Throughout Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Quebec, Newfoundland, North Dakota, Texas, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and even in the United Kingdom, South America, and the Middle East they learned what made each beer and each brewer so unique.
With so many memories made from so many flavors and locations, it was time to put these experiences to great use.
We hope you will love what we have built as much as we have loved building it for you.
Cheers,
BCBC Team

Welcome to the delicious world of Wheat Ale! This crisp tasting beer has well-balanced citrus flavors with a solid mouthfeel delivered from a strong malt backbone. To the eyes, you are going to see a light golden color that reminds you of sunrise during harvest. Overall this is a really awesome beer that has an effervescent feel to the mouth making it a great post combining or yard mowing drink.
Not everyone knows what they want in an IPA beer, so we created the Sea Buckthorn IPA that has a little something for everyone. The original recipe used Sea Buckthorn berries that were grown in Balzac. They are bright orange in color and tart on the tongue. When you first pour this Ale, through the eyes you will see a straw-like yellow in color. To the nose, you'll breathe in a hint of passionfruit and citrus notes. But more importantly, when you taste it on the tongue you'll gather the ease of Citra hops, the light tangy acidity from the rind of the berry as well as the stem, and a heavy feeling of refresh at the end. Since the berry thrives in all seasons this beer is perfect for summer AND winter.
This Blonde Ale is a beautiful compliment to our beer family. Not only does it bring a different group of flavors to your palate but it has a full straw-like color that makes your mouth water just from looking at it. It's crisp, tropical, hazy, and juicy. All things you DEFINITELY want in a patio beer or just on a beautiful summer day. You are going to get Papaya, grapefruit, slightly vinous (like white wine), pineapple, and sweet malt on your tongue which will be enough for you to want another. Enjoy this one responsibly... It's a beer that will consume you!
An Irish Red we are proud to have created with our community. You will sense notes of caramel, and light herbal characteristics from the hops. Slightly sweet with a toasty dry finish. Very true to style and approachable. A great beer for Red and Light beer drinkers alike.
If you are a Lager beer drinker than this is a beer for you. Especially since the Hops taste you notice will be offset by the great malt flavor that follows. When drinking this beer you are going to feel an earthy floral and citrus mix which means that the mouthfeel (the physical response your mouth will get when you drink it) is going to be high. The great news is the ABV in this one is lower which makes it an easy-drinking beer. Enjoy!
The Absolute Best.
We have designed the tastiest British Brown Ale primarily using malts crafted by Red Shed. This Beer has a delicate nuttiness with rich brown sugar notes and an herbal hop character. It’s creamy mouthfeel and incredibly smooth finish offer a sensational experience. Destined for greatness, even our own brewery dog approves of this beer!
