What to do on a rainy day & Brewery Tour

Have to admit it's kind of cool to be a visitor in your own province/city/town. So many places to explore without going very far. Since we're new to this province, there definitely is so much for us to explore & discover. Decided to visit Alexander Keith's Brewery Tour in Halifax last weekend with darling youngest son who was at home for the weekend. For roughly $25 you get a one hour tour of the brewery and 2 full glasses of the beers of your choosing. The tour takes you back to the time of the brewery beginnings. Really enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend; only downfall according to me was you had to drink your 2 glasses very quickly. So I only enjoyed 1 glass; wishing  I could have sipped the 2nd in the pub afterwards at a much more leisurely place. Would have been a nice moment to unwind & talk about the experience! But all in all a great time and would highly recommend! Ideal thing to do on a rainy day in Halifax, which unfortunately have been plentiful this past week.

Here's a few pics of our tour at Keith's. (video recording is not permitted) Maybe one day you'll make it here and you might even learn how their India Pale Ale got it's name.
