HALIFAX, NS – Garrison Brewing has announced the release of a new ale that was created in collaboration with Toronto’s Great Lakes Brewery and Ireland’s Metalman Brewing.
Brewed in early August when reps from the guest breweries were visiting Halifax for the Seaport Beer Festival, Not So Gentle Tickle IPA is a 7% abv and 55 IBU ale made using whole leaf Amarillo, Citra and Columbus hops. The result is described as having “a bold hop flavour with juicy, citrusy and fruity aspects.”
Not So Gentle Tickle was launched yesterday at both the original and summer beergarden locations of Stillwell. It’s also available at the Garrison retail store in a limited run of 650 ml bottles.

- Greg C. is drinking a Barn Owl (No. 19) by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinIf Jelly King had an older and cooler brother, it would be this beer.
- Greg C. is drinking a Donkey Venom w/ Black Currant (2018) by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinA good sour ale with a big hit of tart black currant. Showing it’s age a bit, with some leathery oxidization. But still enjoyed it.
