CRAFT Beer Market is celebrating 15 years with throwback gifts and surprises

Cheers to 15 years! CRAFT Beer Market opened its first location in Calgary in 2011, and since then, it has earned a reputation for fantastic food and one of the country's largest draught beer selections.

To mark the major milestone, CRAFT is throwing it back with the return of classic menu favourites, gifts, and an official anniversary party at the flagship store.

Want to get in on the action? Here's everything you need to know.

Four favourites return

If you're a CRAFT Beer Market OG, you probably have fond memories of menu items that are no longer with us. The retirement of your favourite dish is a unique kind of devastation. If you find yourself craving CRAFT classics of the past, then this one's for you. CRAFT is bringing back four classic menu favourites for a limited time only.

The returning favourites are Fast Food Sushi, which is a CRAFT cheeseburger wrapped in bacon with house pickles and barbecue sauce; Taquitos, made with hand-rolled pulled chicken, Monterey Jack, fresh chilis, black beans, and roasted corn; Butternut Squash Ravioli, served in a peri-peri alfredo with pumpkin seeds and carrot chips; and the Gin Squeeze cocktail, made with Empress gin, lemon, simple syrup, and grapefruit Radler.

You can enjoy these dishes at any Canadian CRAFT location from Oct. 14 to Nov. 11. Once they're gone, they're gone, so be sure to book your reservation now and celebrate 15 years of CRAFT with these exciting throwback menu items. You might even walk away with a surprise throwback gift...

Party time

The festivities peak on Friday, Nov. 6 at 5 p.m., when an official 15th anniversary party is going down at the original Calgary flagship on 345 10 Ave. S.W. Everyone is invited to this free party.

Entry is subject to capacity, so be sure to arrive early to guarantee your spot. The celebration will close out by announcing the launch of CRAFT's brand-new menu, which launches on Nov. 12. Expect delectable dishes like a Short Rib Smash Burger and Southern Lemon Pie — iconic flavours to kick off the next chapter.

Reservations are open now on the CRAFT Beer Market website. Visit any time before Nov. 11 to try the throwback menu items, and if you're in Calgary, be sure to swing by the Anniversary Party on Nov. 6 at 5 p.m.
