Wild Life Distillery & Cocktail Barđ¸đĽ
If you want to experience the 'spirit' of the Bow Valley, this is the place to do it. Tucked away in the industrial part of town, Wild Life is a local gem. Its a craft distillery through and through, they produce everything on site using local grains and mountain water. Its got a great atmosphere too - 'sophisticated' but still has that friendly mountain town vibe. Whether you're sitting at the bar watching the bartenders work their magic, or just having a few drinks and chatting with friends, itâs a great spot for a high quality cocktail that you won't find anywhere else.
