Skunkworks Distillery

Have you tried moonshine? Skunkworks Distillery in Calgary invites you to experience what they proudly call “Proper Shine.” Located in the city’s vibrant Barley Belt—home to a thriving community of craft breweries, distilleries, cideries, and wineries—Skunkworks crafts smooth, high-quality moonshine using locally sourced ingredients, including Alberta-grown sugar beets refined in Taber. The distillery takes great care in selecting only the purest cuts—“the heart of the hearts”—to ensure a soft finish and clean taste. Visitors can sample their unique spirits in the cozy cocktail room, enjoy live music, and explore the surrounding neighborhood of fellow craft makers.
