Malts: Pilsner, C-60, Vienna
Hops: Galena, Nugget, Willamette, Apollo, Cascade
With a good dose of hops, this well-balanced beer has a brilliant copper color and a delicious malt body.
"All along the West Coast of Cascadia, where fir and cedar forests dip their roots into the Pacific Ocean, a family of bears winds its way. They sniff at grasses and ferns, and they play in the waves and the refreshing sea spray.
Follow the Coastline".

355ml can on 12th August 2025. Sat on my friends patio on Vancouver Island, second British Columbian beer of the day. Pours a lovely clean and clear amber with an off white head. Nice enough blend with the malts just about winning in the aroma and taste stakes. Easy going but a little pedestrian in nature.

Poured from 355mL can. Slightly hazed gold with small white head. Very generic, mild malt backing with feint pine hops. Nothing interesting.

Pours a clear medium copper body with some modest foam. Aroma is grassy caramel, hints of tangerine. Taste is sweet cardboard with a dry and bitter finish. Even in a backyard BBQ scenario, this is pretty mediocre.

Light pine and some citrus. Pours orange amber with good head. Bitter end. Light and not a ton of flavour. Light bitter end. Can

Decent pale ale. Well fermented but a little too heavily balanced towards pure bitterness. Sobeys sk
