Canada, NS: Big Spruce Brewing to open next year in Cape Breton

After years of depending on mainland breweries to supply their suds, craft beer drinkers on Cape Breton will soon have a local option to support, Canadian Beer News reported on October, 26.

Big Spruce Brewing is currently under construction on an organic farm in Nyanza, just outside of Baddeck, where owners Jeremy and Melanie White plan to be up and running in January with a brewery and restaurant, both using ingredients grown on-site.

The brewery will be offering beer in 20 and 50 litre kegs and 2 litre growlers when it opens.
