Jun 25, 2000 Is it just me or does that description above not make any sense at all? But more to the point, DON’T LET THE NAME FOOL YOU! This beer is named after the Chinook salmon, not the chinook hop. In fact, this is lousy even by Big Rock’s rather poor standards.

Dec 15, 2002 There was almost no head in this beer. Pale orangey golden look. Low in gas. Some grape and flower aroma but not in appealing way ... Slightly acidic, nothing special tats for sure.

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

Dec 16, 2002 Fruity and flowery aromas, amber, mild malt taste, hint of hops, nothing special.

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.
