Swerve Magazine recently had an article listing a bunch of microbreweries, and I was inspired.
Article about food clusters here: http://calgaryherald.com/life/swerve...ew-of-the-city
So, I thought this thread could be a place to discuss the various Calgary breweries. Here's a list compiled and sorted from the article in Swerve Magazine. I'd love is someone could do restaurant reviews of each place (if applicable). From the various websites, it's not actually clear if each place even serves food, although I think if they do tastings, there's some kind of provincial law that says they have to.
