All-Canada Pale Ale

Yukon Brewing
Tap to rate
🌍 Canada · Pale Ale · One of 150 Pale Ales in hopIQ

A pale ale brewed entirely from Canadian-grown malt and hops. Golden and clear, with a bready, lightly caramelised malt base in the aroma and a grassy, citrus-peel hop note laid over it. The palate is balanced rather than hop-driven, cracker malt through the middle and a moderate, clean bitterness at the close. Medium-light body and a short dry finish.

Serve & Enjoy

How to get the most out of All-Canada Pale Ale

Serve at 7–10°C
Refrigerate, then rest 2 min

Cold enough to sharpen the hop aroma without numbing the palate. Around 7–9°C keeps the citrus and pine vivid without losing bitterness definition.

Pint glass
Recommended for this style

The classic — versatile, comfortable to hold and keeps the beer cool. No frills, no distractions: just the beer.

Drink fresh — hop aroma fades fast. Best within 3 months of canning or bottling.
