Nine Locks Brewing Co.
Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Canada · Est. 2016
Tally's Take
Why this matters
Named for the locks on the Shubenacadie Canal, the 19th-century attempt to cut a waterway clean across Nova Scotia. Dartmouth has always been the working half of the harbour, and Nine Locks reads like it.
