Annual Okotoks Parade
We cannot wait to be in this year's parade with our brewery a very short few months away from opening! Come on out and say hi because we would love to meet you.
Introduction to SMALL BATCH Brewing
​
Come join us for a few hours of talking beer and learning how to small batch brew. We will walk through the process including bottling so you know exactly how to get started while learning about a few of the styles you will be able to brew on your own when done. This fully interactive class allows you participate as much or little as you want while having access to Mark and Lisa, American Brewers Guild Certified brewers, to answer all of your burning brewing questions. And if that wasn't enough, there will be a flight of our in-house beer ready and waiting for you to enjoy! We will taste and talk about each one so you leave with even more beer information than you thought you were in store for!

Hub Town HIDEAWAY - Valentine's Day
​
It was only 100 years ago when breweries and pubs alike were in the midst of prohibition, making the manufacture, transport and sale of alcohol illegal. It was thought that it was the "ultimate sin" to drink alcohol...which was when the "speakeasy" came to life.
A speakeasy back in the day was an "illicit establishment that sold alcoholic beverages," so called because of the practice of speaking quietly about such a place in public, or when inside it, so as not to alert the police or neighbours. In fact, these places were typically well hidden, with just a few subtle clues leading you to its whereabouts and a secret word or phrase was the only way you could assure you would get in!
​
Now here we are in 2020 and although we are no longer in an alcohol-restricted country, we thought it would be fun to bring back the excitement of the speakeasy right here in Okotoks!
​
Inspired by Betty Lou's Library in Calgary, we give you Hub Town Hideaway! But a speakeasy wouldn't be genuine with just beer and no exciting cocktails now would it?
​
This is why we have teamed up with our soon-to-be neighbours down the street, Firehall Distillery, to create a menu of beer cocktails that brings all the fun, boozy flavours known and loved, right in house!
But that's not it...we're also working with the incredible Soul Sugar catering to provide an assortment of two-bite canapés to savour while partaking of your beer cocktails, to keep your night in check - if you so choose!
​
In the meantime, each reservation will enjoy a 2.5 hr seating on Valentine's Day, 1920s "modern" music all night long and ambience like you've never had in Okotoks before!
If we don't sell out, we will allow walk-ins too but your food has to be pre-ordered, so wait too long and you'll be out of luck! If you don't want to risk it, buy your tickets HERE to receieve your entry password, then put on your "cocktail attire," (that just means leave your hoodies at home) and prepare to go back in time with us! Nothing too fancy, nothing too cheesy...just a room full of people enjoying a secret evening like they did back in the day. Come as a one...two...ten...doesn't matter to us! Just come to have fun.
​
Hub Town Public Opening
We couldn't be happier to open our doors to YOU at long last! We will be pouring three beers and a radler to get you started and of course the under 18's can enjoy a pint of butter beer!

OkotoberFEAST
If you know us, you know we LOVE halloween!! And since the town run Okotoberfest was cancelled, we thought it was a good time to take the two and smash them together into one, fun event!
​
Join us for the evening, dress up in your favourite costume (if you are adventurous enough...and remember, Mark will be in his zombified lederhosen so you're not going to want to miss that!), drink from a STEIN, eat from the delectible, fresh, CHARCUTERIE feast that our friends from French 50 Bakery will have on hand and then enjoy hours of Folk/Irish/Fiddle tunes from local band, The Spokeshaves, for a night to remember!
​
And YES OF COURSE there will be prizes for the best costume!
​
Did we mention...we are releasing our "Don't Hassel the Heff" german hefeweizen on this night!? Of course we are! It's Oktoberfest...when else would you release a hefeweizen?
​
Grab your tickets on our STORE PAGE or in the brewery. Entry is $10. Add a GIANT STEIN to drink from all night too if you like and a side of FOOD too to make this a great night all around!
​
This is a kid-friendly event so please use your best judgement when deciding if your kidlets would like to see the walking dead...it isn't exactly the most PG event we will run but we trust you know your kids best and will make the best possible decision!

LIVE MUSIC - Calum Graham
Calum Graham is the most talented guitar players we have ever seen...EVER!
It was 2008 when we first saw Calum performing at just 16 years old at the Spruce Meadows International Christmas Market...he was dancing all over the stage and playing the guitar better than anyone we had EVER heard before! That was the day his CD went home with us because his music was something we needed much more of!
For years following, his music came with me on every business trip and was an incredible companion on the long trips on my own. Fast forward three years and we (Mark and I) were getting married...the only musician we could imagine at our wedding was Calum, because his music was beautiful in every way.
Now here we are 9 years later and Calum is coming back into our lives for one night, February 8th/2020, to play his incredible music for you, right in our brewery! Known as "one of the world's top 30 guitarists," according to Acoustic Guitar Magazine (and we would agree), his is a show you won't want to miss! We wouldn't miss it for the world.

Every brewery has a story, and that story is best told by those who actually walked the path! This is why founders Mark and Lisa Watts will spend an hour and a half taking you through Hub Town Brewing, telling you how the brewery came to be and of course how they use their incredible wall of stainless steel brewing equipment to create a 1500 litre batch of craft beer!
Better yet, you will enjoy a taste of each of their beers on tap and get to ask all your questions to the two who know those beers best!
Tour starts at 12:00 noon sharp!
