Whitehorse - Yukon Brewing


We are back in Whitehorse for the second time on our trip. We hoped to do some biking, but the day is cold and rainy. So we did what anyone should do in Whitehorse, we took a tour of the Yukon Brewing facility. Our tour guide Marten was terrific! 


I found it interesting that they get their bottles from the local recycling plant. Many of them have other beer names on them. 


The brewery was started in the late 1990s and has a huge share of the beer market in Yukon now. I can tell you from tasting that their Yukon Red is a superior beer! 


The brewery is starting to make whiskey and other spirits, but only the vodka was ready for tasting. 


All in all, a great way to spend a rainy day! I am "borrowing wifi" at the visitors center to post this.
