Holy Whale Brewery

New Brunswick


Housed in a converted church, this lively brewery is making a name for itself across the Maritimes. The punchy Devil's Half Acre IPA and creamy Medusa Milk Stout are often accompanied by sessionals such as the Creamsicle Pale. You'll also find Buddha Bear Coffee Roaster here, a summertime menu and regular live music.
