Canada, AB: Summit Brewing releases its first beer in Calgary

On Beer reports that a new brewery being launched by the owner of a local liquor import agency has released its first brand in Calgary.

Summit Brewing (not to be confused with the American brewery of the same name) has been founded by Troy Kamphuis-Finnigan, who is currently having beer contract brewed at Half Hitch Brewing to build brand awareness before opening a bricks-and-mortar operation.

Finnigan’s Irish Pale Ale is currently on tap at select bars in Calgary and Edmonton. Other brands including Rocky Mountain Lager and Finnigan’s Irish Red are planned to follow later this year and Kamphuis-Finnigan hopes to have the physical brewery up and running by the end of 2018.
