Greetings
all,
As
you can imagine, it's been quite a year for the Ribstone Creek
Brewery.
Now
on tap in nearly 20 locations across Alberta, word is starting to
spread about this ambitious rural brewery.
In
May, we were honoured with a silver medal in the category of Best
Domestic Lager at the Calgary International Beerfest — a major
feather in the cap of Ribstone Creek brewmaster Anthony Richardson,
who joined the team in early 2012.
Through
the summer, brewery founders kept busy lending a hand and supplying
beer at local golf tournaments, rodeos and charitable events. In
June, we had the opportunity to present our beer to several NHL stars
and other Canadian celebrities during the 2012 Hartnell-MacArthur
Charity Golf Classic.
In
November, we unveiled out Movember moustache glasses as a show of
support for prostate cancer research. The 'stache glasses proved to
be an incredible success and we've received requests for the glasses
from across the country and beyond.
Most
recently, we've been busy putting the finishing touches on our
Edgerton facility and expect to be producing beer in our shiny new
tanks in coming weeks. Once we're up and running, we look forward to
creating some new beers to go along with our now-popular RCB Lager.
We
wish to thank the many people who have supported us and helped us
grow. Without question, Alberta is entering a craft-beer boom and
Ribstone Creek Brewery is excited to be at the forefront.
Cheers
to all that lies ahead!
Merry
Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours.
Sincerely,
The Ribstone Creek Brewery crew
