a collaboration between
about us
Veranda is a collaborative taproom and spirit hall from Vaycay Brew Co and Burwood Distillery. Our home at The Stables on the Currie Barracks was built in 1936. This single-story building was one of Currie Barracks’ first structures and was home to the ‘B’ Squadron of the Lord Strathcona’s Horse Regiment. The building’s unique ‘K’-shaped design accommodated up to one hundred horses while the high ceilings, arrangement of windows and doors, and brick construction maximized light, airflow, and sanitation. Fast forward 85 years later, after the purchase of the Stables from Canada Lands, Burwood Distillery and Vaycay Brew Co moved in and converted one of Calgary’s most historic buildings into a functional craft beverage production facility. With a desire for real community connection, a partnership is born with a focus on premium spirits, craft beer, and local scratch food.
