Proud Maritime Malthouse

Because local beer starts with local ingredients

Maritime craft brewers and distillers can now source base malts made from barley grown by NB farmers and processed in Petit-Paquetville NB. As grain crops in Western Canada are severely impacted by the extreme weather conditions of the past few years, local malt makes for a strong link in the supply chain for the province’s craft alcohol producers. With the construction of a malt house in 2020, hundreds of tonnes of malt that were imported annually from Western Canada are now substituted by local agricultural products.
