Chilkoot
The first lager the house brewed, added in 2000 after years of ales only. Pale and briskly carbonated, with a quiet aroma of cracker, light grain and a hint of floral hop. The palate is slim and clean, with a touch of bready malt sweetness and a short, crisp bitterness that closes without a lingering edge. Built as a plain alternative to the big national lager brands and one of the brewery's best sellers.
