    The Coldstream Clear Distillery tasting room is located just off the highway as you are headed into…read moreHalifax. It is really easy to access, but is hiding behind the Taco Bell so it is easy to drive past it the first time if you do not know what you are looking for. Once you have found it the tasting room is a lot of fun. They have a wide range of rums and vodkas that you can sample as well as their sodas which are premixed drinks with soda water. You can also order a flight of cocktails which the staff makes right there in front of you. The day we visited the staff member was amazing and was very kind and helpful. With your cocktail flight in hand, you can head out outside to enjoy drinking them. The drinks were all very tasty. We tried the Blueberry Mojito the Creamsicle, Espresso Martini and the Paradise. Our two favorites were the Espresso Martini and Paradise. We stopped because we were working on getting stamps for the Cheers Trail, but it would be a great stop for anyone that enjoys small distilleries from the local area.

    This distillery is so great! It's been open for a few months and their home made vodka is…read moredelicious. You can usually try any vodka, and their variety is unbeatable. My favourite has been their poke pie vodka. Their coconut vodka is also amazing for piña coladas. The staff are so friendly and are especially kind - they will literally offer to help you with anything. Definitely will be back!

    Definitely worth a stop if you're on the wine-o tour but this one is maybe only worth doing a…read moreflight. It looks like this place still needs a little bit of refining but it has some pretty good potential in the next few years. The wine is decent. Their red really is good but their rosé is a little bit more fruity than we like and much darker than expected. Not a huge selection here but a really nice location overlooking the vineyard. I'd personally skip the food as it seems like it's being too fancy for what it is. We got the cheese board and it definitely is trying to be a little more fancy than it is. It comes with 3 cheeses and there are only 3 options so if you don't like blue cheese, let them know when you order so they can give you more of one of the other two. The thing we found odd was the tacky Breton crackers. It would have been nice to have some kind of artisan crackers instead and perhaps some sort of a jam, jelly or spread. We found it to be a little tacky for $16. The service was a little bit in the middle and we waited around a while to even get a menu. Once the server recognized we weren't helped yet, she apologized and picked up from there which made us not want to get up and leave like originally planned. Overall, I think this place is worth a shot but perhaps don't expect to be wowed and maybe grab a meal before you show up. I can see this being a great place to do a flight just to try what they've got or just have a glass of wine on the patio that's being extended (they were working on it while we were there). Lots of parking and just off the road.

    What an awesome little hidden gem! Off the beaten path, this place isn't easy to find because there…read morereally isn't any signage for it in the area. One attraction sign on the main Highway through Hubbards shows them, but not any directions. This establishment would benefit from a few well-placed signs to get tourists down. The building is unassuming in the front. It is accessible which is great. There's an ice cream hut in the parking lot and a counter on the left when you enter for off-season ice cream service. This is an old schoolhouse so it's HUGE inside and the bar is very open. A small step leads out the back door to a massive patio. Seating up top or below with multiple options. Sun or shade. Couch or chairs. Lots of options with fire pits, too. Surprising we have never heard of this place and only recently discovered them on social media; they just celebrated their 5th anniversary! You can't buy their products at the NSLC but they do ship across Canada. The list of cocktails is extensive. While I'm not a fan of flavoured drinks, I could not resist a fun flight on a hot September day. Super reasonably priced and crafted with care. The Funhouse was definitely fun with a shark in the glass and topped with cotton candy. Surprisingly not too sweet! Samples of their spirits are free and I highly recommend the gin which we ended up buying a bottle of. Service was super friendly, engaging and overall effective. A great place for large groups. The entire establishment is dog friendly. Only downside here is some of the labels are a little bit tacky but that's pretty minor.

    I visited with friends during a road trip in the area. I wasn't sure what to expect, but we had a…read morenice time. We missed the turn off for their road the first time even though there is an old truck with "Caldera" painted on it and a small sign. They're set back a bit from the main road, so they don't quite catch your eye until it's a bit late to turn. The parking lot is pretty big and more than accommodated all of the visitors while we were there. At first glance we were a bit surprised at the buildings because the barn is so old and weathered, but there's a newer (metal) barn that the distilling happens inside. Once we learned the story of the old barn (which actually looks great inside), we were really impressed. (Get them to tell you all about it!) The distillery is really focused on local stories with all of the ingredients for the whiskey being grown locally and the names related to the community. The colour of the Hurricane 5 whiskey is a beautiful caramel (see photo). They offered free samples of the Hurricane 5 while we were there (August 22nd) and a cocktail at a great price that included ginger ale, ginger beer, lemonade and whiskey. It was perfect for a hot sunny day! They also mentioned that they were about to come out with another whiskey and would soon have a cognac as well. There was no seating in the barn, but outside on the back courtyard (through the barn) were four Adirondack-style chairs and some other areas where you could sit. It's not really set up for people to stay and enjoy a couple of drinks though; it's more to get you in, let you taste the options and send you on your way with a bottle or two. I would have appreciated a couple more chairs since there ended up being more than 10 people there at the same time.
