This past February Propeller Brewery started offering up one off brews on the first of the month in a limited release.  These beers will be available in growlers only at the Prop Shop on 2015 Gottingen St. Halifax.

The second in the series, available this coming Thursday, is Munich Style Dark Lager.  Check out the What’s New section of the Propeller site for a description of the beer and history of the style.


Rockbottom Brewpub will be releasing its Day of Wreckoning Imperial Stout Thursday, March 8th at 5pm.  The brew is described as

a big luscious brew aged on oak then aged some more allowing the flavours to mature. It screams Bourbon and Port notes then quickly settles into an amazing complexity of flavour, layer after layer. Fruit, vanilla, oak, cherries, caramel and chocolate to start with superb tannin balance. Served nitrogenated through a sparkler faucet.

Check out the Rockbottom Brewer’s Blog for stats on the new beer.

As  mentioned on the Big Tide Brewing Facebook page, Patrice Godin from Acadie-Broue will be in Saint John this Saturday at 4pm to discuss his “La Gaboteuse” which is a Belgian IPA.

If in Saint John take the opportunity to stop by, sample the brew and have a chat with Patrice.  The new brew is currently available on tap at Big Tide and is available for sale in growlers as well.
