Known well for making superb brews, Dandy Brewing Company's taproom in the Ramsay neighbourhood of Calgary also serves up some fun cocktails. Dandy is one of the 70 spots taking part in our 2nd annual fundraiser cocktail campaign, Shake, Stir and Strainbow! This fun drink is easy to make and even easier to sip.

Swing by their taproom from now until Sept. 2, 2019 to order the I Saw Her Standing There, and you'll be helping to raise funds for Alberta charity, Skipping Stone Foundation, which provides support to trans youth across the province.
