HALIFAX, NS – Garrison Brewing is releasing its latest limited edition beer today, and as with last winter’s Spruce Beer, it’s a unique brew made with ingredients rarely used in modern beers.
Garrison Honey Lavender Ale is a golden ale brewed using local honey (from Smeltzer’s in Shubenacadie, NS) and English lavender (from Meander River Farm in Ashdale, NS).
After a sneak peek at the Seaport Beer Festival earlier this month, it’s available starting today at the Garrison retail store in Halifax, and at private liquor stores in Nova Scotia including Bishop’s Cellar, Premier Wines, Harvest Wines and Cristall & Luckett.

- Greg C. is drinking a ∞ Peppercorn Rye Saison by The Exchange Brewery at King & DufferinBottled in June 2017. Lots of layers & complexity - bit of funk, some tart fruit notes, rye astringency & pepper in the dry finish.
- Greg C. is drinking a Dragon’s Milk by New Holland BrewingSplit at tasting. 4.5 years old. One of the most balanced and drinkable bourbon barrel aged stouts around. Always a treat.
