183/1457) The Knot, Lunenburg:  Old English Ale by Hell Bay Brewing Company of Nova Scotia:  **;  brewed with five malts;  rich, and malty  - a hearty English ale;

From the outside the Knot doesn't look like much but a but it is huge on the inside, packed and lively.  Lunenburg seems to close at 5PM so perhaps there is little else to do at the dinner hour.

184/1458) Maxwell's Plum, Halifax:  The Vicar's Cross Double IPA by Boxing Rock Brewery of Nova Scotia:  **1/2;  8.5%;  strong piney nose;  bitter pine flavours;
