Ice Fog IPA – Yukon Brewing

From Yukon Brewing in Whitehorse of the Yukon Territories comes the “Ice Fog IPA” and English India Pale Ale.  The beer pours an orange colour with a white head.  The aroma consists of biscuit malts, fruit and and floral hops.  The flavour is of biscut malts, caramel, fruit and very mild bitterness almost more grassy.  The alcohol content comes in at 6%.  While I question this being even considered at English IPA as the bitterness is just to low it is still a tasty beer and worth picking up. Just do not expect to taste bitterness.

Commercial Description:  When it’s quitting time around the brewery the team can often be caught snagging a pint of this British style malt forward IPA. We call it Fog-O’clock and it’s becoming a bit of a Yukon trend! Unlike the hundreds of other IPA’s out there, we’re 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.
