Wikipedia* describes a town square as “an open public space commonly found in the heart of a traditional town used for community gatherings.”
Our desire is to reach out to people and give them a life-changing experience. When our customers become our friends and family, we’ve formed community.
The decision to create this eatery and brewery has come out of a creative desire to impact the community through the passions we can share with like-minded individuals. We want to build a sustainable place that can pour financial support back into the community through utilizing local suppliers and supporting local charities.
Town Square will be a place that will offer an environment where the only distractions will be the new items on the menu and the chatter of fulfilling conversations. You will not find large televisions, loud music or noisy broadcasts. We are offering an opportunity to disconnect so that you can re-connect with some of the more important things in life; friends, family, the arts and the passing of time.

Town Square consists of three young families that share a passion for local food, drink and building the communities we belong to.
Brandon and Megan Boutin
Brandon is the driving force and visionary behind Town Square. His excitement and passion for community and craft beer is what drove Town Square from dream to reality. Megan is Brandon’s endless support and, when necessary, voice of reason. They have two beautiful young girls that help keep them both focused on creating an environment that a family can be part of.
Tyler and Katrina McNaughton
Tyler’s design and tech experience has brought Town Square to life through floor space and web designs. Katrina’s fun, magnetic personality keeps us all going and smiling. Tyler and Katrina have one sweet young son with another expected (Boy or Girl?) to join us around the same time as we open the doors of Town Square.
Sterling and Mellissa Nordin
Born and raised in a small town south-east of Edmonton, Sterling and Mellissa have a deep understanding of what can be accomplished through community. High School sweethearts, they now have three awesome kids who keep them busy!
You
It is you that will make Town Square what we desire. We want to give you the opportunity to join us in creating this beautiful space. As contributors you will get some awesome perks and you will be able to say you helped in creating Town Square Brewing Co. – A place you can call your own.
Yay! You’re still reading. We’ll take that as a good sign. The big questions you may be asking now is, “How much?” And possibly, “What do I get out of it?”
Well, we will try to make this as straightforward as possible. We have raised enough capital to create the brewery and lease a space to host you; that would be, mmm… so-so. Our ask is that you help us raise an additional $30,000 to build a place that you can call your own, a place you would be excited to share with friends and family, a place that inspires, a place for community.
Just a few of the major purchases we are currently planning on putting your hard-earned money towards are:
Why Indiegogo and not the other guys?
This was a simple decision. Other crowdfunding platforms offer only an all-or-nothing option, which is ideal for a startup that will require the goal to be met in order to get off the ground. As mentioned above, Town Square is moving forward if we raise $1 or $1 million (Stretch…stretch…stretch goal!). What we are asking is: Will you join us in creating a community like no other? And for your hard work in helping us, we want to reward you with some super cool perks!
You will find our perks to the right of our blabber, but we want to highlight some unique ones that we feel are the best:
*one other note, AGLC rules prohibit other liquor licensees from directly contributing to this campaign.*
We might not be changing the world with this one campaign but we are inviting you to join us on making a change in and through our community. We strongly believe that if we can bring a community together with like-minded individuals, a difference will be made.
Every adventure has risks and challenges. These challenges can be overcome by the community we build. For this campaign, our biggest risk is that we don’t inspire you enough to join us on making our venture something beyond what we could have imagined or anticipated.
This goal will not be met by just you… unless you’re super eager to grab all of those sweet perks! To help our campaign be truly successful, we ask that you share our vision with others, inspiring them to get behind what we are doing and become a part of an amazing community right at the grassroots.
Again this is only possible through you and by you. We are only the dreamers and you are the ones that will make this place truly amazing.
