    Sample several tasty beers at Moosehead, the country’s last major Canadian-owned brewery, and then watch the extraordinary tidal phenomenon known as the Reversing Rapids.


    After departing from the pier, you will begin a brief but informative tour of Saint John, Canada’s first incorporated city. Although the Great Fire of 1877 destroyed much of Saint John, the city was beautifully rebuilt with stone and brick following that conflagration.


    You will then arrive at Moosehead Brewery which was owned by the Oland family that started Moosehead, one of the most revered brands of beer in Canada. While touring the modernized Moosehead facility, you will watch the beer being brewed, bottled and shipped. You will also tour and taste in the new small batch brewer located onsite. The process is as fascinating as the company’s 150-year history.


    Moosehead produces a variety of beers, several of which you will sample. You may be served the signature golden lager, a pale ale, a lime-flavored beer, or Cracked Canoe, a light but full-bodied lager. The tastes reflect the local ingredients and show the diversity of product.


    Continuing on, you will soon arrive at Wolastoq, a park whose name means “beautiful river” in the language of the Maliseet people that once lived here. The views will be spectacular, especially of the Reversing Rapids, a natural phenomenon created during high tide, when the Bay of Fundy rises 14 feet higher than the Saint John River, reversing its flow. You will also see a wood carving of famed brewer George Oland before returning to the pier.
