This brew made it’s first appearance on the growler bar as many eager pilots do. The uptake was swift. The popularity amongst Yukoners was unprecedented and this beer simply needed to move into a seasonal package to keep up with demand. One year later and this fine brew has graduated into the core family and will now take permanent residence among the other mainstays. Conspiracy IPA is a medium bodied ale with enough malt backbone to support a cast of Chinook and Simcoe hops. The beautiful nose holds notes of pine, grapefruit pith and orange zest.

Poured from a 473ml can.
A nice dank West Coast IPA, a wonderful looking pour with a mild dank nose.
I get lots of Pine Resin no grapefruit for me.
Overall a well done IPA. biboergosum and leaddog described it well.

473ml can - haven't seen a new Yukon brew around these parts in a long while, but maybe I just haven't been paying that much attention.
This beer pours a clear, medium golden yellow colour, with three stout fingers of puffy, rocky, and chunky eggshell white head, which leaves some decent layered striated cloud form lace around the glass as it slowly abates.
It smells of bready and doughy caramel malt, orange and pink grapefruit rind, some earthy minerality, and a leafy, weedy, and piney green hoppiness. The taste is gritty and crackery cereal malt, muddled domestic citrus peel, a further indistinct tropical fruitiness, wet stones after a driving rain, and more leafy, earthy, and dank piney hop bitters.
The carbonation is quite tame in its palate-disappointing frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and essentially smooth, the hops playing the gentleman suitor card here. It finishes off-dry, the mixed frooty essences the order of the lingering day.
Overall - a pleasant enough rendering of the style, leaning more towards the gentle Eastern USA examples, than the geographically closer Western ones. Crisp, easy to put back, and I can see why this was so popular at the brewery's growler bar - it has Yukon Brewing written all over it, and I mean that in the nicest way possible. Good stuff!

My first Yukon brew in quite some time.
Appearance - Pours a rusty copper with four fingers of frothy white head that leaves some puffy lace on the glass.
Smell - earthy, leafy, floral, and piney hops, pine resin, grapefruit peel, bready malts, caramel, and earthy yeast.
Taste - bold earthy, leafy, floral, and piney hops upfront. The pine resin and grapefruit peel follow suit. The bready malts, caramel, and earthy yeast round out the brew.
Mouthfeel - Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. Finishes sticky with the hops and pine resin lingering.
Overall - A surprisingly well rendered IPA from the folks at Yukon. I like how the pine resin and grapefuit peel come with a bang. Worth seeking out.
