Backyard hockey rinks are a staple of Saskatchewan, but an outdoor curling rink is a much more rare sight. | CBCSask

CBC NewsMalty National Brewing hopes its homemade curling sheet can help residents embrace the outdoors.

Co-owner Adam Smith said he hopes it helps people in the Queen City embrace winter and try out the sport in a "very amateur way." A campfire and some benches surround what he calls an "unofficial length curling sheet," where the stones are replaced with homemade imitations made with galvanized steel handles sealed by ice into buckets from the brewing process.

When Adam asked his seven-year-old son, Rocco Smith, if they should repeat the rink next year, the boy said yes."You would grab a rock, you would put your foot on this wooden pedal at the back and then you would slide and throw your rock," he said.
