Default Chinook

Anyone know of a good beer that showcases the Chinook hop? Preferably an IPA, but any beer would do I suppose. Cheers!

Arrogant Bastard seems to be all chinook, but I don't know that for a fact.

I'm pretty sure Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale uses a good deal of Chinook for bittering. Most of the clone recipes I've seen for it use Chinook. Though good luck still finding it on the shelves.

My own "5 Count IPA" homebrew uses Chinook, Centennial, Cascade. Its damn good if I do say so myself and actually is pretty close to Celebration Ale, even though I wasn't really going for a clone. Just made an IPA to my own tastes and it ends up in that area.

i made a blonde ale once using two ounces of chinook, one at 60 and the other at 20/25, and it was delicious. This reaaly let the chinook come out, it was one of the best beers ive made to date.

Have you been to (or called) the "Pretty Good Beer Store" on Weaver Dairy Road in Chapel Hill? No offense.
