A Fun Place to Connect & Unwind

Alesmith Rick Lockhart has created a line up of great beers served in a spot that instantly feels like home.  He brews what locals like and takes pride in working with other local businesses to make sure you leave feeling like you've truly experienced the Town of Sussex.  Rick takes pride in his craft and nothing makes him happier than seeing the smiles on his patrons faces as they sip on his creations while they catch up with friends.  

From the tastes, to the names, to the tap handles, our beers are inspired by our patrons.  Crafted using a combination of the best malts, hops, and local ingredients.  There is always something new on tap from our small batch brewery.  From the Picadilly Pale Ale to the Honourable Member Red Ale, to our Gose Before Bros to our selection of brews and ciders from other NB Craft Breweries - each visit is a new adventure.

The perfect end to a day of hiking, skiing, or trail riding, the natural place in town to spend some time chatting, and an awesome place to kick off any evening out.  This small space punches above it's weight when it comes to character and vibe.  You set the tone - grab a deck of cards, the community guitar on the wall, or a board game to go with your beer.  You will be shocked when you realize you haven't looked at your phone  the whole time - and neither has anyone else!
