It's about time Banff had it's own Brew Pub! I really enjoy the Jasper Brewing Company which is owned by the same folks. They really set the bar with the new Banff Ave Brewing Co. They had 5 home brews on tap; sadly I could only try 2 of them, but they were really great! The Pilsner was clear and fresh, perfect for the patio. My favorite however was the IPA. Full bodied with a really distinctive flavor. The menu was original and innovative in it's own way. I had a Bacon Cheese Burger. The wasabi mayo made me wonder why I hadn't had this before. Really distinctive. I had the house salad as a side. The balsamic dressing was real, and tasted very fresh. I can't wait to go back and try the other beers! On a final note, the hostess remembered my name the entire time I was there and my bartender Isaac was really knowledgable about the different beers.
