Founded in 2016, Sober Island Brewing has been an integral part of the Nova Scotian craft brewing scene for seven remarkable years. In August 2023, a new chapter began when Steve and Nancy Giles, seeking a change after long and successful careers in Alberta, took the reins of this coastal gem. We are committed to preserving the essence of the brewery while embracing positive change. We continue to honor the traditions set by the founder, crafting beers that reflect the character of our coastal surroundings.

Simultaneously, we strive to bring fresh perspectives, new flavors, and a renewed sense of community to Sober Island Brewing. At the heart of Sober Island Brewing's success is our Head Brewer, Tim MacLeod. With a wealth of experience and dedication to excellence, Tim oversees the creation of our signature ales.
