Garrison Brewery: Halifax, NS


Garrison Brewery
1149 Marginal Road, Halifax, NS (902) 453-5343 www.garrisonbrewing.com

Recently, Garrison has taken up new digs in at 1149 Marginal Road across from the infamous Pier 21 Historic site. Launched in 1997 with “Irish Red Ale”, Garrison success has since led to the creation of four year round ales; Nut Brown Ale (a 3 star rating by Stephen Beaumont), Tall Ship Amber Ale, and Raspberry Wheat Ale with one winter and two specialty beers. One is JalapeƱo, a spicy yet sweet beer. The doors at Garrison are always open for visitors to come in and have a look around. Singles or growlers along with t-shirts and glassware are available from the beer store. A minimum of 20 people is needed to partake in a brewery tour. But, if you manage to join a group, you will be shown a fabulous time. You are provided with the knowledge of pouring the perfect pint, learning how the brewery got started and of course, trying the beer.
