Description

Origin Malting and Brewing Co. has deep roots in Alberta’s malt barley tradition, thanks to the Hilton family’s 40-plus years in the field. As leaders in sustainable agriculture for over five generations, they use no-till farming methods that help preserve the land, boost soil fertility, and capture carbon. Thanks to these homegrown, high-quality grains, they offer full traceability from field to pint. One of Alberta’s few micro-maltsters, Origin truly embraces the farm-to-glass idea. Spearheaded by fifth-generation Hilton family member Meleah Geeraert and her husband Kyle, it’s also one of the province’s first true farm-diversification efforts.  When Origin opened in 2017 during Alberta’s craft brewery boom, the timing couldn’t have been better. Now, they brew 12 craft beers alongside various seasonal releases and even hard iced teas. With a firm commitment to sustainability, community, and top-notch brewing, Origin Malting and Brewing Co. stands as a testament to the region’s proud barley heritage and the family tradition behind it. Whether you’re a craft beer enthusiast or simply curious, there’s plenty to explore—and taste—under their roof.
