A refreshing, lightly hopped golden ale brewed with all-natural Lillooet honey and made with barley, honey, hops, water and yeast. It is brewed in recognition of the Sea to Sky regions highest peak, Mount Garibaldi (8,776 ft, 2,675 m) which was named for Italian hero Guiseppe Garibaldi, the man of two worlds.

Oh ya, it’s a constant struggle gettin’ up that hill... and pouring this huge bottle into a little glass. But it pours all right, some decent head, yellow body as typical for lager beers and a bit of carbonation. Lots of sweetness on the nose, maybe some hints of a lager flavour. It’s a very sweet ale, probably too sweet, as the honey dominates everything. No complexity and unbalanced. Okay dry finish. I’d prefer a little more complexity and balance. I’ll still finish this 1 litre bottle though.

Draft - Lots of grains. Clear gold with a decent white head. Grains and a light sweetness. Easy drinking, but boring.

’1L fliptop from Bottles and Bins in Monterey, CA. Pours orange gold with a white head. Aroma is light hop with a touch of honey. Med minus body. Nice light drink. Finishes mildly bitter. Honey is not obnoxious.

Pours golden brown with a white head. Aroma is honey, sweet malts and caramel. Flavour follows accordingly. Nothing too special.

Draught at the brewpub
Deep blond color. At first it shows some nice hop aroma, but it disappears quickly, the some very light honey aroma. It’s a simple Ale, with smoothened corners, a bit sweet.

Bright golden colour. Slightly honeyish aroma with hints of wonderbready pale malt. Light pale with hints of toasty malt but mainly bread and slight honey, which is mostly in the light, sweet finish.
