Milkshake IPA's!

[gwoods22]

I used to live in Ontario and if you are familiar with Flying Monkeys, you must know about their amazing Live Transmission milkshake IPA! I've been craving that sweet, creamy goodness and would love to know what your favourite Milkshake IPA's are? Are there any breweries in HRM that are currently making one that I could pick up?

Cheers!

Tidehouse does some but i'm not sure if there is one on now or not. I can't think of any others right now.

Kind of was a shortlived thing, like champagne IPAs. Might be some from Trailway still? Other than that I suspect they're probably the way of the dodo unless they make a comeback.

Milkshake IPAs are a pretty maligned style around here, mostly because by and large most breweries have missed the mark and the good ones are brewed rarely and harder to obtain. Trailway, Tusket Falls, Big Spruce, Tidehouse, Bannerman (NFLD) and Tide and Boar all have/are making them to various levels of success. For my money Bannerman, Tide and Boar and Tusket Falls are doing the best job with the style. Keep an eye on the Bishop's cellar website, Tusket Falls and Trailway have both released their milkshake IPAs this year and Bishop's had them.

For Tide and Boar or Bannerman, you will need to make friends in Moncton and St John's respectively.

Finally you could search google for a Ontario bottle shop that both ships here and often carries Third Moon, Badlands, Wood Brothers, Bellwoods and/or Blood Brothers and buy milkshake IPAs that regularly slay. If such a business existed, and had cheap flat rate shipping, like say $19 for 12 bottles or 24 cans or some mixture thereof... that would be pretty cool.

Thanks for the info! Funny enough, I stopped in to the 9 Locks Taproom in Halifax and coincidentally they had a Milkshake IPA on tap! Quite delicious!
