Touted as Canada's first certified organic microbrewery, this place is about as good as it gets in…read moreterms of street cred. The place is about 1h out of Kamloops, and maybe 45 minutes from Salmon Arm. In case you're wondering, a Crannog is a Scottish (and Irish) stilted building, usually built on bogs. Getting here involves a turn onto a side street (literally an intersection, not an exit) right off Highway 1. A GPS helps big time here. Parking is available in the small lot in front of the building. There is barely enough room for 8 vehicles. Other than 1 type of brew during my visit, only pre-filled growlers were available. In other words, one cannot simply bring in a growler for a filling for most beers. Guess their operation is too small. I was able to fill my growler for $15, while my buddy picked up a pre-filled one for $20. Tours are available (free, but reservation required), which last about 1h. This is a special mention, because not only is it quite educational, but those who complete the tour get a free tasting (4 beers at the time of writing) at The Bloody Stump, their in-house tasting room. Definitely learned quite a few things. For example, almost everything used for brewing is produced on the property. The water is drawn from a well, and the hops are grown on site. The used barley is used to feed the hogs in a small pen nearby, and the hog poop is used to grow more hops. The tasting room is very cozy, but this is where one can try the different brews. Special mention goes to the Red Branch ale. This is probably one of the best craft beers I've ever had in my entire life. Yes, it's that good. I regret not picking up a pre-filled growler of that stuff.

Tasty, a bit small for the price, yet I was still full after so it's for the best. Fries were a crispier version of McDonald's fries...came with a ketchup hybrid...a bit spicy. Was good!

I had their smash burger (it is only one patty on the happy hour menu) along with a beer and my friends had the wonton nachos and wings. The food was very good.

We dropped in on a Monday afternoon (around 12:30pm) and it wasn't busy. Our server/bartender was friendly and came by to check on us several times. Their merchandise is run of the mill but at least they have some board games (Catan, Ticket to Ride, etc.) hidden in a corner. There was 8 beer flavours on tap along with a small food menu consisting of chips & bar snacks, nachos, burrito bowls, tacos and dessert. - Flight ($9.00 for 4) - we went with the red bridge pale ale, the juice train, boomer and railtie ($1.00 extra). I actually really enjoyed the look and feel of their flight cups! Favourite of the bunch was the juice train, a sour mango saison. You don't see too many sour mango beers; light and easy to drink but we wanted more punch in mango flavour. Boomer was sour in the slightest way. Red bridge pale ale was standard. Railtie, a barrel aged beer, had a bit of funk to it but didn't love it. Decent beers but nothing we haven't seen before at IRB.
