Brewing Up Something Special

A Family Story

Our small business started with a family passionate about great beer. When Warren and his sons decided to open a brewery in Southern Alberta, they did their research, spending months traveling North America to learn about the process and meet skilled brewers. In 2016, Medicine Hat Brew Co. opened its doors. In the years since, our team has expanded, the Taproom has become a beloved local institution, and we continue to pursue brewing excellence, with beers to suit every taste and occasion.

Master of Brew

Mitch Dalrymple

Master of Brew

Our Brewmaster (a.k.a. Master of Brew), Mitch Dalrymple, was a bit of a late bloomer in the world of craft beer. Up until his early 30’s, beer was merely a filler in between drinks of spirits.

Then one day everything changed for Mitch when an extraordinary home brewer and up-and-coming professional introduced Mitch to craft beer. There was no looking back. Within weeks, Mitch was home brewing, and with some fortunate mentorship, he began to craft some tasty brews.

Mitch has been head brewer at Medicine Hat Brewing Company since day one and has made over 54 different styles of beer. He has worked in the industry for 16 years and taken home numerous brewing awards including two golds at the 2020 Canadian Brewing Awards.
