A waterfront seafood restaurant in Yarmouth with its own ten-barrel brewery, pouring unfiltered ales such as Blonde Rock, Rudder's Red, Yarmouth Town Brown and Raspberry Blonde, plus IPAs, sold to go in 473 ml cans, growlers and party kegs.
Rudders' packaged beer (HTS 2203.00.00, "Beer made from malt") can no longer ship to the US: the US import ban on listed Canadian alcohol took effect September 29, 2026, after a 50% Section 338 duty that applied from August 22, 2026. We found no public statement from the brewery about US sales.Source: whitehouse.gov, Sep 8, 2026
You must be of legal drinking age in your province to buy alcohol. Rules on shipping alcohol between provinces vary, so buy from the maker directly or through your provincial liquor store. We only link to makers; nothing is sold on this site.
