Commercial Description:
Named after one of the many great natural resources BC has to offer, this amber ale has a unique, happy character. The British roast malt and Mount Hood hops found in this beer have combined to create a clean, dry finish amber ale with the body that says "great" on the tongue.

On tap on West Broadway at some Mexican Restaurant in Vancouver. Nice tasting. Should have taken better notes.

Bottle. Forgot about this one for awhile. Deep amber with decent head. Aroma is fruity with some malt & decent piney hop notes. Flavor is the same, with a sort of wine-ish fruitiness to it. Lingering fruity aftertaste.

(Bottle) A very ballanced beer. Nothing shining through just the fact that it is thin and mild all the way round. Great for a mostly mainstream flavored beer with a little extra.

Pours a reddish/brown colour. Aroma of caramel and hops with light malts. Flavour is semi-sweet and slightly bitter. A little thin for me but still a decent amber.
