Is this your brewery? If so please tell us more and :welcome:
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

It won't be in a house! It's a trio of gents, one of whom is a Brewnoser and Aleander. I'll let him / them report their good news on here, though. It's literally not my business. ;)

I'll be sure to report on it in my site, though.

Please allow myself... to introduce ourselves. :wave:

I'm very pleased to share with you all that we're in the process of starting a new brewery in Charlottetown and plan to open in the Spring! I'm so pumped and it's been a dream of mine to open a brewery for a really really long time!

There's been a lot of meetings and research going on behind the scenes and we're still navigating through the process of selecting our equipment, building renovations, etc. I'll certainly share more as things move forward, but as of right now, we're still at least a month away from making a more official/detailed announcement.

Stay tuned!

Great news! hopefully some product makes it across the strait

Tap 1: Festa Brew Scotch Ale

"Fill with mingled cream and amber,
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chamber of my brain -
Quaintest thoughts - queerist fancies
Come to life and fade away;
What care I how time advances?
I am drinking ale today." ~ Poe

We have shortlisted a few, but have to keep that under wraps for the time being. :shh:

I expect there will be some test batches floating around before too long though. :headbang:
