Description
FIELD TO GLASS: WE GROW IT, YOU DRINK IT
Grow a better beer. We start with our own craft-grown ingredients, highlighting their quality and character with an expert Brewer's attention to detail.

We love craft beer, and we're proud to talk about our beer's journey, from Field to Glass.

It's our goal to create a solid core of Mainline beers that are perfect for everyday, and a wide variety of Roundhouse offerings to keep your interest piqued.

Why Siding 14? It's a nod to our rich Alberta and western Canadian railway heritage. Before the town of Ponoka was named, it was Siding 14 of the Calgary-Edmonton Railway Company. The siding was a supply point for steam locomotives making the run between the two major cities. The railway not only provided transportation between small towns and major centers, it was historically the heart of communication and social interaction in communities across the province.

473ml can. Pours a clear gold yellow with a medium, creamy, long lasting, off-white head that leaves soapy lacing. Aroma of bready wheat malt, red apple and floral hops. Sweet flavour of grainy wheat malt, red apple and grassy hops in a dry, mild bitter finish. Light body with a watery texture and soft carbonation. Refreshing and crushable, but nothing special.
