Summary

[edit]
Description

Downtown, Halifax, Nova Scotia. Alexander Keith's Brewery is located on Lower Water Street at the far south end of downtown, a short distance north of the seaport. Its namesake was a giant in Nova Scotia history: Alexander Keith was a Highland Scot who was born in 1795 and emigrated to Halifax in his early twenties, founding his brewery in 1820. Keith prospered in his trade and ended up being elected Mayor of Halifax for three terms, which he followed up with a thirty-year career in the provincial legislature. As for his business, it's now a subsidiary of Labatt and one of the oldest continually operating breweries in North America. Alexander Keith's is famous across Canada (and, increasingly, also in the United States) for its India Pale Ale.

Centre-ville, Halifax, Nouvelle-Écosse. La Brasserie Alexander-Keith est située dans la rue Lower-Water au bout sud du centre-ville, une courte distance au nord du port. Son homonyme était un géant de l'histoire néo-écossaise: Alexander Keith était un Écossais des Highlands qui est né en 1795 et a émigré à Halifax au début de sa vingtaine; il a fondé sa brasserie en 1820. Keith a prospéré dans son métier et finalement a été élu maire de Halifax pendant trois termes, ce qu'il suivait avec une carrière de trente années dans la législature provinciale. Quant à son entreprise, elle est maintenant une filiale de Labatt et l'une des plus anciennes brasseries d'Amérique du Nord en fonctionnement continu. Alexander-Keith est célèbre partout le Canada (et, de plus en plus, aux États-Unis aussi) pour son India Pale Ale.

Centro, Halifax, Nueva Escocia. La Cervecería de Alexander Keith se ubica en la calle Lower Water en el extremo sureño del centro, a poca distancia al norte del puerto. Su tocayo era un gigante en la historia nueva-escocesa: Alexanderkeith era un escocés de las Tierras Altas que se nació en 1795 y que emigró a Halifax al principio de su vientiañero; estableció su cervecería en 1820. Keith prosperó en su oficio y finalmente se eligió Alcalde de Halifax durante tres mandatos, lo que él siguió con una carrera de treinte años en la legislatura provincial. En cuanto a su empresa, hoy es una filial de Labatt y está una de las cervecerías más antiguas en América del Norte en operación continua. Alexander Keith's es famoso por todo el Canadá (y, cada vez más, en los Estados Unidos también) por su India Pale Ale.
