Heading to Halifax this weekend from PEI and was wondering if anybody can recommend a particular liquor store that has the best/expanded beer selection. Looking to pickup some different varieties for sampling.

Thanks

Rockhead and Bishops cellar for starters. Go on the NSLC web site and do a locate on the beer you want to make it easier on yourself.

Where are you staying?

Or just hit up as many of the breweries as you can

I like Bishop's the best, but it's in a horrible location. Rockhead is my next favourite.

Third/fourth for Bishop's Cellar. Can usually find a parking spot in that lot, and they've got a growler station and nice US and Quebec beers, in addition to the better NS stuff. That and Bayers Lake NSLC (or maybe The Port, haven't been there yet), will net you most packaged stuff in the province, and hit up the breweries for interesting growler-only options. Always more fun to drink at the breweries anyway, right?

Thanks for the suggestions. I managed to get to both Rocked and Bishops Cellar. Was able to pick out a good selection of beers that are not available here on the Island.

BC has a location on Strawberry Hill. I have never been but It may be worth a look.

BC as in Bishop's Cellar? Where are they located? I haven't been down that street in years.

I believe that's just their warehouse

Could be my son (GAM's son) did his WSET there.

LD is correct, no store there.

Nope. Nothing special there whatsoever. Not a beer destination. At least not yet.
