Just in time for Christmas, New Ontario Brewing and the North Bay Santa Fund are teaming up to launch a new holiday-themed beer.

‘Santa’s B Team Milk Stout’ will be available tomorrow (Thursday) starting at 11am at New Ontario’s retail shop on Cassells Street.

Twenty cents from each beer sold will be donated to the Santa Fund.

The idea for the beer came from Jake Lacourse and Brad Gavan who bid on and won a “Brewmaster for a Day” prize at a golf tournament.

“Any time we have the opportunity to brew an awesome beer, and give back to the members of our community- we’re in!” says Brewmaster Mike Harrison. “During the holidays many families go without, and it’s our hope that by raising some money for the Santa Fund, we can help with that.”
