Slow Hand West Coast Pale Ale

Slow Hand Beer Company’s West Coast Pale Ale is made in Vancouver. The beer clocks in at 5% and comes in 473mL cans. According to the copy, the clear, pale gold ale is a “crisp, bright, & juicy dry-hopped pale ale.”

The beer has a punchy citrus aroma with a bit of supplemental pine. The flavour is a bit on the mild side, with lemon and evergreen elements and a light, resinous finish. Though the flavour is a bit weak, the texture is spot on—crisp and refreshing.

Not a beer that I’d be likely to revisit, but decent enough all the same.

Rating: 6.5 out of 10.
