Holy Whale Brewery sits in Alma, New Brunswick, inside a former church that still carries the echo of stained‑glass windows and vaulted ceilings. The pews have been swapped for bar stools, and the ambience (the organ still lingers in the background) manages to feel reverent without being pretentious, instantly broken by the intoxicating smell of hops.
The beer list reads like a mischievous experiment lab. Unique flavours dominate, and the Skittles‑infused ales have become something of a cult favourite – sweet, bright and oddly satisfying. Specialty coffee drinks are on tap, each cup crafted with the same devotion the brewers apply to their malt. The brewery also ships out 440‑ml cans, so generous you could fill a bucket, making take‑home sales a delight for anyone who likes a proper stash.
Craftsmanship is obvious; every sip shows that the team respects tradition while having the cheeky confidence to toss candy into the mash. Whether you’re after a bold IPA, a quietly complex stout, or a perfectly pulled espresso, Holy Whale delivers with a wink and a well‑earned reputation for quality.
Visitors praise Holy Whale Brewery for its unique flavors, eclectic atmosphere, and excellent coffee and cocktail offerings, set amidst a beautifully preserved old church setting, with friendly staff and a wide selection of brews.
