Buffalo 9 Brewing Co

Buffalo 9 Brewing Co in Calgary serves craft beer in a welcoming taproom where guests can discover meaningful stories behind every pour. The brewery honours nine Canadian peacekeepers who died when their De Havilland Buffalo aircraft was shot down over Syria in 1974. Beer names and label designs recognize the service and sacrifice of military members, past and present, connecting each brew to Canadian history. Its name also carries an Alberta connection: one founder grew up on a rural farm where highways 9 and 41 meet, with Highway 41 known as the Buffalo Highway. Both founders have relatives who served in the two world wars, making remembrance personal. Visitors can sample the brews while learning the stories that inspired them.
