You can’t create something extraordinary without a unique approach – fortunately, their brewery is Fahr from ordinary. The quality and taste of Fahr beers speaks for itself by winning several prestigious World & Canadian Brewing awards. Specializing in brewing “beer-flavoured” beer, Fahr is redefining what it means to be a craft beer by bringing it back to the basics. Adhering to German Purity Laws, Fahr is brewing over 500 years of tradition into locally crafted Alberta Beer. The mastermind behind Fahr Beer is Jochen Fahr. Jochen was born and raised in Ebringen, Germany. His passion for brewing began early in his childhood when his father worked at the Fürstenberg Brewery in nearby Donaueschingen. Later in life and halfway around the globe, Jochen’s passion for brewing and appreciation for local farming reconverged in Calgary when he started Brauerei Fahr. Jochen’s goal was to provide the Canadian consumer with authentic German Beer made from recipes Fahr away.
