Had this one on tap at Mcnally’s Tavern in Regina. Not a lot to say here, standard Big Rock brew. Golden colour, dry drink and a nasty aftertaste.

Oct 7, 2006 I have to rate this even though it is retired, and I last had it just over a year ago. I feel justified in that I used to drink a lot of this stuff, along with Canvasback, before I moved to Australia for a while. When I got back, they had retired them both, but I’ve still got a handsome set of beer glasses with the logos on them. Anyway, from what I recall, this had maybe a shadow of pale ale character at most, certainly nothing like the beautiful American pales that we get from our microbrewing neighbours to the south (and a select few Canadian ones too-- Tree Brewing for example). A beer that holds some sentimental fondness for me though.

Sep 19, 2004 Copper, musty, dull, sweaty, hoppy pale ale. Too much malt. Not sure how they came up with the conclusion of pale ale with so much malt. Must be an alberta thing. heheheh!

Jul 14, 2003 Toronto Festival of Beer 2001 - Unremarkable beer. Disappointing pale ale, expecting more hops and more malt.

May 22, 2003 Boy, what a disapointment. A beer with Chinook as its name that has so little hop aroma or bitterness. An average ale, dry hopped or not.
