It began over coffee in 2015 when David Beattie, Wendell Gallagher, Tom MacLaren and Norman Rafuse all recognized that it was time to do something that would make a difference in our community. Ideas flowed, were explored, and thrown aside... until we hit on the idea of a business that would provide employment, support the growing tourism sector, improve the image of Main Street and give a possible modest return on our time and investment dollars. The company was formed in July of 2017. The goal? To open a small craft brewery.
Our philosophy is to brew approachable, easy drinking beers that can be enjoyed equally by serious craft beer lovers and the person who just enjoys an occasional beer. We produce five flagship beers and a number of seasonals for your enjoyment. The Taproom at Two Islands Brewing is a great meeting place for friends, family and visitors to Parrsboro. Here you can enjoy a pint of our local, small batch, craft beer, or if you prefer a glass of selected Nova Scotia wines or cider. Can't decide which beer you want? Why not try a flight of 4, then chose your favourite for a pint. We offer limited bar snacks, including oven baked nachos and chicken wings every Thursday.
