When it’s quitting time around the brewery the Yukon team can often be caught snagging a pint of this British style malt forward IPA. They call it Fog-O’clock and it’s becoming a bit of a Yukon trend! Unlike the hundreds of other IPAs out there, Yukon is not going for the “hip and hop” award with this brew, going over the top with bitterness. It’s a session beer for folks who appreciate an IPA with balance.
Yukon Brewing opened its doors in 1997 under the name Chilkoot Brewing Co. Ltd. Owners Alan and Bob conceived their idea like many Yukon babies – around a campfire on a canoe trip. Both Ontario natives, they’ve lived and worked in the Territory for a good deal of their adult lives.
