A bit of a wild night across Cape Breton, and plenty of folks are still waiting for the power to come back on ๐Ÿ‘€

Ours is on, the b**r is cold, and weโ€™re open today.

If your house is currently a little too quiet โ€” or a little too full of people wondering when the Wi-Fi will return โ€” come see us for a pint!

With 80โ€“120 mm of rain now forecast, weโ€™re moving Slowcoaster to Sunday, September 13 at 4pm ~ where theyโ€™ll join The Local Joes for a double header.
โ€Œ
Two bands. One Sunday. Considerably better odds of not requiring a canoe.
โ€Œ
Sorry, folks. We wanted this one badly too!

Late August has entered its encore.

Garden flowers in b**r-cans-too-cute-to-recycle, cold pints in the sun, and three more perfect reasons not to surrender the weekend just yet:

Friday ยท 3pm โ€” SHIRETOWN
Saturday ยท 2pm โ€” Dane Pedersen & Malcolm MacNeil
Sunday ยท 2pm โ€” THE ROCKERFELLAS

Free shows. All ages. Pups welcome!

We are, for the record, in no rush whatsoever for fall๐ŸŒป

โ€Œ
We brewed this one big, and built it with absolutely no interest in being subtle.
โ€Œ
Our organic Demigod Double IPA has crossed provincial lines and has a new home on ANBL shelves across New Brunswick.
โ€Œ
568 ml and 8.5% = An unreasonable amount of hops, deployed with surprising restraint.

Go forth ๐ŸคŒ New Brunswick: this oneโ€™s yours now.

It turns out we may not be entirely without resources.
โ€Œ
In a development nobody could have predicted, Alex arrived for his shift wearing what appears to be a highly specific emergency response garment beneath his apron.

Weโ€™re not saying he can solve the Kitchen Party situation single-handedlyโ€ฆ. But weโ€™re also not ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฐ๐˜ต saying thatโ€ฆ

An unusual sight at Big Spruce.
โ€Œ
The b**r fridge is empty.
โ€Œ
Not all the b**r, thankfully. But Kitchen Party Pale Ale, yโ€™know, the b**r we make continuously, all year long, since 2013, and generally consider ourselves reasonably competent at keeping in stock โ€ฆhas been comprehensively drunk.
โ€Œ
Next batch is on its way.
โ€Œ
In the meantime? NSLC still has Kitchen Party on shelves across Nova Scotia.
โ€Œ
(Weโ€™d suggest behaving normally about this.)

Before the backpacks come out and everyone starts pretending they remember what day of the week it is, thereโ€™s still quite a bit of summer to squeeze in.
โ€Œ
Eight free shows between now and Labour Day weekend ๐Ÿ‘‰ Mat Hughes, Brad McGoey, Keira Loane & Keigan MacLennan, Shiretown, Dane Pedersen & Malcolm MacNeil, The Rockerfellas, Rachel Davis McMullen & Darren McMullenโ€ฆ

So: one more swim. One more long afternoon. One more b**r outside. Possibly several more concerts.
โ€Œ
And no, this isnโ€™t the end of live music season ~ September weekends are still ๐˜ท๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜บ much alive, and then? We have ten straight days of Celtic Colours ahead of us!

Summer has some mileage left in it yet ๐Ÿ˜Œ

This is the slightly ridiculous aftermath of a very busy weekend at the brewery ๐Ÿ‘€ an avalanche of empty b**r boxes that, frankly, seemed worth documenting.
โ€Œ
Weโ€™re hoping to create a similar problem again this weekend ;)

Wendy MacIsaac & Mac Morin. Brennan MacDonald. Highland dancers. A bunch of Big Spruce b**r. And, if everyone does their part, a fairly convincing Cape Breton kitchen party on the Halifax waterfront.

Weโ€™ll be pouring Demigod samples, and the BG will have Kitchen Party + Blursday bucket specials all evening.
