The latest brewing creation out of Origin Malting and Brewing in Strathmore has a distinct hockey flavour to it. The Sutter Six Shooters lager, named after the famous six Sutter brothers who played in the NHL, is brewed with Alberta-grown barley from Hilton Ventures. Four-time Stanley Cup winner Duane Sutter says work on the lager started last July after the Sutter family decided they needed to find a new funding initiative for their charity. The Sutter Fund is a non-profit charity that gives to causes across central Alberta and beyond. Hilton Ventures Director and Origin Malting and Brewing President Sterling Hilton says the partnership brings together two families that have a long history in agriculture.

This week we meet for a beer with Kyle Geeraert of Origin Malting & Brewing, one of the few breweries in the world that are truly farm to table. We discuss the century long history of the family business including their enormous contribution to soil conservation in Alberta and how they continue to innovate today. Origin Malting & Brewing’s operations might be seen as the estate winery of the beer world. They grow their own barley on their fifth generation family farm which was settled in 1910, and have been malting their barley in a state of the art facility since November of 2017. The majority of their 12,500 acres stretching from the south-east of Calgary to nearly Drumheller is seeded primarily with canola, wheat, and of course barley. The wheat goes to Roger’s Milling in BC every single stalk of barley is grown for malting and eventually beer. While some of the barley will end up in the Origin Malthouse much of it is also sold to Rahr and Red Shed who also provide world class Alberta malt barley for breweries here and around the world. Kyle’s family has been growing barley on their farm since 1960, but only just recently begun malting their own barley and brewing their own beer. The malting operation was originally conceptualized as a form of vertical integration on the farm once they were no longer required to sell all their barley to the Canadian Wheat Board, and the brewery would allow them to showcase for brewers and consumers alike the great beer that comes from Alberta Barley. We also discuss his family’s contribution to farming practices in Alberta, how science plays a role in the sustainability of their farm, and get a brief lesson clearing up the misconceptions of GMOs.

This episode we sit down with Spencer Hilton of Hilton Family Farms to discuss the world class Alberta barley they produce. After the break we chat with Derek Skaggs, a member of the Calgary Fire Department and owner of Skaggs Design Co. For longtime listeners of This Pint Has 20 Ounces Hilton Farms may already be a familiar name. Spencer’s son in law Kyle Geeraert has previously appeared on the podcast to discuss Origin Malting & Brewing, which is the other half of their seed to glass beer operation. The Hilton farm was founded just outside of Strathmore in 1910 and has been growing barley for over 40 years. Growing barley before 2012 looked a lot different than it does today, when the Canadian Wheat Board was still a mandatory part of the sales process rather than the option it is today. When the Canadian government finally opened up the wheat market in 2012 Hilton Farms and 5 other Alberta farms became the first startup suppliers of barley to craft beer giant Lagunitas. Another 5 years later they decided to take their operation even more local and opened Origin Malting & Brewing. Origin supplies a good deal of the malt needed for brewing at Wild Rose, and makes Origin and Hilton Farms the only operation in Alberta that gets to own the entire process from a hand in the soil to a pint of beer in a glass. This episode when Mama T answers our questions we find out what T looks for in a friend, and have a heart to heart about our grandmothers and their places in our hearts. Later we sit down with a man of many hats, Derek Skaggs. Derek has worked with the Calgary Fire Department for 7 years, after previously working with the fire department in Fort McMurray and Calgary EMS prior to that. The boys have a lot of questions about just what life is like at the firehall, and as Derek tells it firehall life seems like a lot of cook-offs and floor mopping, with a few calls now and again to rescue cats from trees. Jonathan reveals a bit of his envy when he complains to Derek that there’s no “sexy podcast hosts of Calgary” calendar, but according to Josh this would just be the saddest 12 months possible. Derek also runs Skaggs Design Co, a local design company, and you may have seen his work on some of Wild Rose’s march!

This episode we're joined by Mitch Belot, local purveyor of good old fun Saturday night music, Mamma T returns to answer your questions, and our second guest is Kyle Geeraert from Origin Malting & Brewing, the source of Wild Rose Brewery's barley malt. Our first guest this week is Mitch Belot, joining us to plug the band's upcoming album. Josh confesses his fandom for the swampy blues-rock band, and gushes over their performance at a recent show here at the Wild Rose Taproom. Later, the guys try out some soon-to-be rejected catchphrases for the brewery, and each of their experiences having a couple too many pints and getting a little too before playing a show. When Mamma T makes her return to the show she helps Josh re-establish his confidence, and talks with Jonathan about dressing for the job you want, not the job you have. In this episode's second half we're joined by Kyle Geeraert of Origin Malting & Brewing. Origin is not only the suppier of malt barley for Wild Rose Brewing, but also for US-based Lagunitas, a journey that began way back on what Kyle refers to as "Barley Freedom Day," when the Canadian Wheat Board was abolished and opened up the market for barley farmers to sell directly to their clients. What originally began as a way to bring some vertical integration to the family farm, Origin grows and malts their own barley, and brews their own beer. This century old farm is the pinnacle of Alberta ingenuity and pioneering spirit. Join us at the Wild Rose Taproom for 20oz of your own Have a question for Mama T?
