A Collaboration in Support of NWT Wildfire Relief

The story behind Northern Neighbour goes beyond crafting a delicious beverage; it’s a testament to unity and support during challenging times. This exceptional gin and soda is an ode to the resilience and enduring spirit of the North, with a sincere focus on aiding those affected by the devastating wildfires in the Northwest Territories. This season’s wildfires have had a profound impact, leading to the evacuation of nearly 70% of the population from their homes and ancestral lands. Troubled Monk is standing together with the people of the North to provide support, hope, and a taste of solidarity.

“The generosity of Albertans has been a welcoming and unwavering support for so many displaced people from Northern Canada,” said Michelle Gowing, Operations Manager at NWT Brewing Co.

“This partnership with NWT Brewing Co. represents a shared commitment to helping those in need. The Northern Neighbour is a symbol of solidarity between neighbours, and we are contributing to wildfire relief efforts through this collaboration,” Kim Bateman, Operations Manager at Troubled Monk.



In support for the affected communities, Troubled Monk is proud to announce that they will be donating $1,000 to the NWT United Way. This donation will be utilized to provide essential assistance to those who have been impacted by the wildfires, as they work to rebuild their lives and communities.

Northern Neighbour, the name of this extraordinary gin and soda, is a tribute to the special partnership between Troubled Monk and NWT Brewing Co., emphasizing the support and unity that transcends provincial boundaries. This delicious beverage is not only an exquisite combination of flavours, but a celebration of the indomitable spirit that defines the North. As Troubled Monk and NWT Brewing Co. come together to craft Northern Neighbour, they invite everyone to join them in raising a glass to the strength and resilience of Northern communities. With each sip, you’ll not only savour a taste of the North, but also support the wildfire relief efforts that are crucial for the recovery of the affected regions.
