Yukon Brewing Company by tompt
The Yukon brewing company is a small scale brewery in Whitehorse. You can visit the brewery and take part in a tour after which there is beertasting. But if you are not able to visit at tourhours they will let you taste before you buy too.Beers they brew:
- Chilkoot lager, good lager but not very special (5% alc).
- Yukon Gold, a light ale which is populair in Whitehorse and with us (5% alc). Tastes much better than the lager.
- Artic Red, a darker beer with 5,5% alc. Also a beer you must try.
- Cranberry Wheat, for those who like fruitbeers this wheatbeer is very tasty.
- Lead Dog, a winter ale, not availlable in summer (so we must visit again......)
- Midnight Sun, a stout made with coffee. And i simply don't like coffee....... But Tom thought it was too much coffe and too little beer too.
- Aroma Borealis, an mixture of herbs is used for this beer. In my taste it is too much herbs and don't taste like beer anymore.
When we visited in july 2005 the tour was at 16:30 and its free!!
