Back for their 5th edition, to support North Helpline, Watershed Pub & Kitchen and Hellbent Brewing Company release GateCity IPA.

Back in 2022 for their 5th year, Seattle’s Hellbent Brewing Company and the Watershed Pub & Kitchen have collaborated to support North Helpline, with the release of GateCity IPA. An award-winning india pale ale, the beer itself is a marriage of two neighborhoods in Northgate and Lake City, historically included in Seattle’s Northend. 

For every pint sold at participating locations, $1 will go towards North Helpline, which seeks to feed and prevent homelessness. For the uninitiated, here’s a bit of background about North Helpline and those who benefit from this non-profit service. 

North Helpline is a homelessness prevention and food bank service in North Seattle. Their essential work is summed up by their motto: “We believe that all deserve adequate food, housing, and respect. We assist our neighbors in obtaining basic needs that affirm their human dignity and worth."

Released this past Saturday, May 14th, you’re invited to stop by the following locations to support North Helpline and enjoy a fresh pint of Hellbent Brewing & Watershed Pub & Kitchen’s  GateCity IPA. Options include takeout or in-person consumption.
