Fort Garry Brewing Company

Established in 1930 by B.W. Hoeschen, Fort Garry Brewing Company has become a bastion of brewing excellence, upholding time-honored traditions passed down through generations. Renowned for its commitment to quality, only the finest raw ingredients are used to craft a lineup of iconic ales and lagers, including the world-famous Fort Garry Dark. Over the years, Fort Garry Brewing has seen significant developments but none more important than the resurrection of Fort Garry Brewing as we know it today by Richard Hoeschen in 1994. The brewery has consistently pushed boundaries as the Pioneers of Craft Beer in Manitoba, introducing innovative products like the Brewmaster Series, which explores the craft beer landscape with limited edition releases. In recent years, Fort Garry Brewing has continued to evolve, expanding its product line beyond beer to include ‘Ready to Drink’ products with our Hector’s Hard Beverages portfolio.

Fort Garry Brewing remains deeply rooted in its community, actively supporting charitable initiatives with organizations like the Health Sciences Centre and the Winnipeg Humane Society. Our enduring strategic partnerships with institutions such as the Winnipeg Goldeyes Baseball Club and local Universities showcase our commitment to local collaboration. Additionally, we’ve forged new alliances with cultural events like the Folk Festival, establishments like the Casinos of Winnipeg, and celebrations like the Winnipeg Pride Festival.

Throughout its illustrious history, Fort Garry Brewing Company has maintained a steadfast dedication to brewing exceptional beverages while embracing innovation and honoring its esteemed legacy.
