Crazy Canuck

Brewed by: Great Lakes Brewery
Brewed at: Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Type: Pale Ale
5.2% A/V

First Impression
Crazy Canuck couldn't appear more cheezy if it came with a pair of snowshoes. The label has maple leaves, a loon and the quintessential Canadian winter headdress; a toque.
Despite the caricature label Crazy Canuck brings its "Eh-Game" once opened! Terrific floral hop aroma, luxuriant head and a bold haze indicate this pale ale is done fooling around...

First Sip
An incredible presentation of hops, and a strong clean bitterness make this a truly entertaining pale ale! Deeply delicious and somehow still refreshing!

Halfway
A quality product always maintains a high level of performance. This is no different! Crazy Canuck is definitely good stuff!

Bottoms Up
Crazy Canuck is one of those beers that rather than calling on hops to add something to the beer, itself becomes an homage to the brilliant palate of flavor hops can produce. Crazy Canuck is not one for those who prefer their beer to come with a t-shirt or tasting like lime or iced tea. Crazy Canuck is for those hale and hearty souls who appreciate hand-crafted quality ale.
