Granite Peculiar (Halifax)

Our best-seller! This award winning Peculiar is a dark Yorkshire Style Ale, a full bodied brew with a sweet but slightly dry palate.

Granite Keefe’s Irish Stout (Halifax)

This is a true Irish Stout; black and bitter with a buried hint of sweetness. It pours with a thick creamy head that is said to support currency.

Propeller Pilsener (Halifax)

This Pilsener is a refreshing brew in classic Bohemian lager style. It displays a distinctive Continental hop aroma, a light malt sweetness and a refreshing bitter finish.

Propeller London Style Porter (Halifax)

A dark, full-flavoured beer from the 1750s. Smoother and less bitter than stout, this multiple award winner is a blend of pale, roasted and chocolate malts, British and North American hops.

Garrison Tallships Amber Ale  (Halifax)

This refreshing premium ale is golden-amber with light maltiness, crisp hop aroma, and smooth, clean finish.

Garrison Hopyard (Halifax)

A deep golden, medium bodied & nicely bitter West Coast pale ale. Generous hopping in the boil & further dry-hopping produce a fruity/floral aroma & refreshingly bitter finish.

Pumphouse IPA (Moncton, NB)

A powerful west coast style IPA, it’s hoppy, fruity and citrusy with a fantastic caramel malt backbone and medium body. Fantastic with spicy foods or tangy salads. (7%)

Pumphouse Special Old Bitter (Moncton, NB)

A honey-coloured unfiltered West Coast style session beer. The fresh aromatic hop bouquet and malty undertones are in excellent balance, and finish with a pleasant lingering bitterness.

We hope to have our own beer on tap very soon!

The TownHouse Kitchen

At The Townhouse we believe good food is simple – it should be fresh, made from scratch, and as local as possible. We make our own paté, pickles, chutneys and salsas, bake our own desserts and breads, and feature local produce whenever it’s in season. Anything we don’t make ourselves, we source from excellent local suppliers. We serve local organic cheese from Knoydart Farms, The Pork Shop’s gluten-free sausages, Antigonish & Guysborough Co. beef, and Atlantic haddock, cod, mussels, scallops and shrimp.
