Canada, ON: The North York’s Black Creek Historic Brewery launches Montgomery’s Courage

North York’s Black Creek Historic Brewery has launched its latest ale, named Montgomery’s Courage, insidetoronto.com reported on May, 17.

The Montgomery’s Courage beer is the third edition in a series of 12 historic brews representing each consecutive decade of Canadian and brewing history.

Montgomery’s Courage represents 1830 to 1839, when the colonies of Upper and Lower Canada revolted against unfair government rule.

According to legend, rebel forces that met a Montgomery’s Tavern gained their courage for their short-lived uprising by sampling many of the establishment’s fine ales, the brewery said.

Montgomery’s Courage is available while supplies last at select LCBO stores. It sells for C $3.95 for a 500 millilitre bottle.

Beer is available at the Black Creek Historic Brewery and Pub and can be purchased to take home in returnable growlers.
