OUR STORY
Starting in 2016, Chris and Frank's vision for the Ugly Pike Podcast was to amass the single largest database of muskie angling educational material anywhere in the world by harnessing the knowledge of this amazing community, and sharing it all with show listeners. The brand itself was derived from the Ojibway word 'maashkinoozhe', meaning 'ugly pike' when translated back to english. Ugly Pike Podcast quickly grew into one of the top fishing podcasts in North America and so as a result of that success, the idea to create a crisp and refreshing beer was born!
Fishing is part of Canadian culture, of its identity. A generation that is not educated on the jewels of Canadiana is one that will fail to pass them onto their own children. Ugly Pike Brewing Co was created as a way to celebrate these moments. For fathers, mothers, and friends to celebrate the joys of a great day spent outdoors creating special moments.
