Terry, our Brew Master, combines the finest of British Columbia malted barleys with three premium Northwest hops, to produce a classic pale ale with a bright, golden colour. A gentle hop bite in the middle of the flavour profile is complimented by rich maltiness. The result is a refreshing, thirst quenching beer. Bring on the Okanagan heat!

A good, if not fairly plain, pale ale. This pours a nice amber colour with a fluffy white head. I can't smell much on this: malts, and a bit of hops. Nothing out of the ordinary, and nothing distinct.

The taste is of malts with a hop blend. Grassiness with a hint of syrupy sweetness. Fairly standard.

This is a smooth drinking ale that is good, but not great. No problem drinking this one, but they could have done a better job on it,

Where is the catchy local geographic name for this beer as Pale Ale is little too direct. Oh well.

I have in past often thought that this brewer makes balanced boring beers that are forgotten about minutes after being consumed. This pale ale is one of their best beers and I see it as being very true to the B.C. style.

The colour is classic dark gold with a decent head that makes this a twin for St. Ambroise. The hops are more in the background than I like but the malt balance is just right making this very drinkable. The finish is light with a slight dryness of palate.

Typical B.C. pale ale; well made but underpowered which is why I often travel south for my hop fix.
