About Boxing Rock:
According to local folklore, Boxing Rock is where bickering seamen were left by their captain to sort out their differences. The choice: box until only one could return to the ship, or shake hands and share a beer. Either way, there are only a few short hours until high tide. We say drink up!
Boxing Rock was founded in 2012 by two engineers with a passion for craft beer, Henry Pedro & Emily Tipton. They love beer for the challenge of designing a good one as much as for the pleasure of drinking it. That’s why they got into brewing in the first place. For them, brewing is a test of wits, innovation and technology and the practice of an age-old craft steeped in tradition and folklore. Both Henry and Emily are engineers and craftspeople, proudly offering you their inventions/creations.
They have been brewing legendary Nova Scotia Craft Beer on the South Shore since 2013. Visit them to enjoy samples of their beer in the hospitality room – try their award winning Vicar’s Cross Double IPA, Hunky Dory Pale Ale, Over the Top! Sour Cranberry Ale, Temptation Red Ale, or one of their many seasonal brews. Shop in the retail store, enjoy beer samples on their sunny outdoor patio or even stay for a brewery tour, delicious food, and axe throwing!
