Farmery revisited

St. Vital

I recently decided to contact Eric at Farmery Estate Brewery once more because I am constantly hearing about their exploits and great products!

To give you a quick recap Eric, Lawrence and Chris Warwaruk are brothers. They’re also the operators and the owners of Farmery Estate Brewery. They operate a family farm in the lovely town of Neepawa, Man., where they grow ingredients for their beer. They have partnered with groups such as the Keystone Centre and the Brandon Wheat Kings, the Winnipeg Air Show, and many other great local Manitoban organizations. Their products also encompass clothing and other merchandise, non-alcoholic beverages such as teas, energy drinks…you get the picture! Without further adieu, I’m enlisting Eric now to expand on the things I’ve missed…

“The past year, Farmery has expanded our non-alcoholic beverage line-up. We rolled out two new flavours for our Beer Caesar and Virgin Beer Caesar products — Sweet & Spicy, and Chipotle — as well as expanded our reach with our Auntie Bea’s Teas infused with BeeMaid Honey, a honey co-operative that encompasses the Western Canadian provinces. With the help of the provincial government, we were able to source and install a Dalum carbon dioxide recycler late last year, which means we can recapture the CO2 expelled during the fermentation process at our brewery, and re-use it to carbonate our products! We are one of the first breweries in all of Canada to install this machine from Dalum. This machine is really helpful in reducing our overall CO2 use, and contributes to our sustainability goals, and our already-low carbon footprint for our estate brewery concept. We are currently working on some new and exciting product additions to our non-alcoholic beverage line-up, stay tuned!”
