The Granite Brew-Pub: Halifax, NS



Granite Brewery
1622 Barrington St, Halifax, NS (902) 422-4954 www.granitebrewery.ca


The Granite is no longer situated in the Henry House, but has taken up permanent residence at 1662 Barrington Street. The Granite Brewery offers 5 English-style ales that have been brewed on site. They are top-fermented, unpasturized ales which are brewed with all natural ingredients. Best Bitter Special, Peculiar, IPA and more are on tap along with local draught. A Summer Organic Ale is presently being served for the curious beer drinker. The setting in the Granite has a traditional English pub feel with its dimmed lighting and old wooden furniture. A nice mirror overlooks the long slender bar and adult contemporary music lingers in the background. The open windows let drinkers watch the movement of the busy city go by or you can sit in the back and read a book. Memorabilia like glassware, t-shirts etc are also available.

Beer Menu – Draught: Best Bitter, Best Bitter Special, Peculiar, Irish Stout, Ringwood, IPA, and a mixture of light and dark bitters, Propeller, Garrison and McAuslan’s.
