Back Forty Brewery, perched in Yorkton, Saskatchewan, is the province’s freshest microbrewery, and it doesn’t pretend to be anything other than a serious pint‑maker with a sense of humour. Their eight house beers read like a cheat sheet for adventurous drinkers: a Nutella‑inspired Toasted Marshmallow Stout that could coax a smile from a statue, and a Honey Brown Ale that swears it’s brewed with honey harvested just beyond the city limits. The brewmasters got the idea after a late‑night TV binge, blending old‑school malting with sleek, modern equipment to deliver flavours that feel both familiar and daring.

The taproom may look modest, but step inside and you’ll find a bustling hub where locals swap stories over pressure‑filled growlers that keep the brew fresh for days. Appetisers are paired with the beers, and the pizza menu—gourmet‑topped and surprisingly good—provides a perfect counterpoint to the hops. Despite its unassuming exterior, the atmosphere inside is anything but ordinary, making Back Forty a must‑visit for anyone who respects craftsmanship without the pretension.
