Halifax, Peggy's Cove and Lunenburg, Nova Scotia

A display in front of the "merchant's" store in the museum.

For sale in the store - in addition to coils and coils of rope and other nautical stuff.

On the CCS Acadia - seen earlier from the water.

The ship's wheelhouse.

. . . and ventilation and smoke stacks.

A local water-taxi.

My kind of place. Actually, they no longer brew anything here as they moved their operation to more modern facilities. This building has been modernized and split into boutique type shops, a "Brewery" tour and a nice sport's bar - serving - you guessed it, Keith's finest!

A group starting the tour.
I did find an interesting site when I was researching Keith's - check the Beerologist site here.

One of my "tour guides" - period dress and acting from the early 1800s.

Copper beer brewing stuff.

More of the same . . . Copper, Brass and Stainless always makes a nice picture.

The highlight of the tour, after the brew room and the granary and the cooper's shop, is the pub! Here, in addition to sampling all the Keith's brews, you can play period games. Here one of the tour-guides leads a card-game for a group of kids. This is my attempt at no-light photography.


"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover." -- Mark Twain
