The vendor says its base malt is Maritime-grown and its specialty hops come from all over the world; the named hops on its flagship IPA (Denali, Azacca, Lemondrop, Idaho 7) are US varieties. The split is an estimate for a Maritime craft brewery: Canadian malt, water and most packaging, with hops mostly from the US and some from Europe and elsewhere. The online store runs on Shopify, a Canadian platform.
