While cider is rapidly gaining traction in the alcoholic beverage market, Brodie Thomas, founder of Calgary's Uncommon Cider Co. is unconcerned with hopping on a bandwagon in the name of profit. Instead, he is intent on positioning cider in its traditional English form, with real ingredients, made the old-fashioned way. Mashing, fermenting, waiting. Each batch unique.

But aside from sticking to traditional process, and a steadfast adherence to an "apples-in-sweeteners-out" philosophy, Uncommon is unafraid to experiment with different flavorings, so long as they are natural, and support the brand's bold philosophy.

Uncommon is also resourceful and socially-mindful, making use of apples collected from the backyards of Calgarians, to create an annual, but limited batch of "YYC Cider" - keeping true to its claim as Western Canada's only "urban cidery".
