Description
Welcome to Good Robot, a brewery, bar, restaurant and beer garden run by a pack of misfits in the heart of Halifax’s historic North End. Our beers are known to be eclectic, eccentric, and untrue to style, fraught with foraged materials, impulse decisions, and whimsy. We don’t make ‘craft beer’; we make beer (kinda). And we enjoy sharing our beer, our building, and our childish minds with our communities.
In the summer, our GastroTurf (beer garden featuring AstroTurf) brings all the flavours of summer ales to the familiar comfort of a putting green. Year-round, we host oddball events, brew with the community, sponsor festivals, facilitate charitable incentives, and make questionable marketing decisions. Want to sit your bum somewhere and let your freak flag fly? Well, matey, set sail for Halifax’s Most Questionable Brewing Experience.

Growler, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma brings out nail polish, some tart dark fruits and little roast. Flavour is much roastier - the roast covers the nail polish a bit more than the nose - with some subtle dark fruits and apparent alcohol. There's some definitely off-notes in here. Needs tweaking.

Keg at Stubborn Goat. It pours hazy golden with a small white head. The nose is earthy, grainy, smoked cream cheese, paprika, herbal and grass. The taste taste is crisp, salty, minerals, cracker, bread, orange rind, lactic, straw, wheat, herbal, cream cheese, mild acidity and a touch of smoke. I like the elements of this beer, but I wish it was more sour. Decent enough.
