ABOUT BIG ROCK
The year was 1985. 60-year old barley farmer and lawyer, Ed McNally, felt frustrated with beer in Alberta. Either he could drink mass produced boring lager, or he could pay import prices. One night over scotch, Ed and a friend wondered, “Why don’t we start our own brewery?”
|
A short while later, the friend called Ed to tell him that a German brewmaster was on his way. Bernd Pieper, The Brewmaster, would go on to become craft beer pioneers in Canada. Ed had a relationship with barley farmers looking to market their high quality product, access to an abundance of fresh, hard water, and a clear vision of what he could bring to the craft beer world.
They brewed high quality ales, took the beer market by storm and Big Rock became Canada’s first modern and independent craft brewer. |
Today, Big Rock is one of Canada’s largest brewers of high quality craft beer. Brewmaster Paul Gautreau, who began his career at the brewery in 1986 working the packaging and kegging lines, has been trained by some of the best in the world, including the prestigious Institute of Brewing and Distilling in London, England.

At Big Rock we are inspired to discover, share and celebrate our passion with the community we live, work, and enjoy our beer in. We are brewing deliberately different beer and we’re excited to share each brews story with you.
