The Beer
A light beer, it is most-commonly found in the Western provinces of Canada and the Pacific Northwest states of the USA, with sparse distribution in eastern provinces and states. It was made available in the province of Newfoundland and Labrador recently. The Columbia Brewery also brews Kokanee Gold, with a fuller body and 5.3% alcohol content, Kokanee Light, and Kootenay True Ale.
Kokanee is a Pilsner Style Lager with 5.0% alcohol v/v and is British Columbia's best selling beer. Kokanee beer is aged naturally. The "Glacier Fresh" taste of Kokanee (a marketing slogan for the brew) is created by making the beer from pure mountain stream water. It uses three varieties of malt and a blend of western grown North American hops.
