West Coast Pale Ale. The perfect balance of five diffent malts and hand selected Hops. The distinctive flavour and aroma make this one truly smooth and inviting beer.

-came in a standard 341 ml bottle. It came in a variety pack with 3 other flavours. Poured a very nice golden hue in color. Nice head that left after a while. Slight carbonation bubbles and great lacing.
-good mixture of hops and sweetness in the smell.
This is the first one of this style that I have tried and I must say I was impressed. I am looking forward to the other offerings from Tree Brewing Co.
Thx.

500 ml can.
Best Before date stamped on the bottom edge.....kudos for that !
An Amber Ale, not a "West Coast Pale Ale" as advertised (very malt forward, with little or no hop flavours) ....but not a disqualifying issue for these types in my book.
Pours a warm red with a nice creamy head;
clean, crisp taste, some malty sweetness;
some lacing left on the glass.
A very good sessionable beer.

Poured into a Fremont pint glass. Pours a medium coppery amber with a one finger white head with great retention and nice lacing. Aroma of biscuit and caramel malt, butter, toffee and grassy hops; English profile. Flavor is also English, much like the aroma with rich biscuit and caramel malt, dry grassy hops; long lingering biscuit and dry hop finish. Medium bodied with a pleasant light creaminess. Oddly both ales I had tonight are labeled in a way that I was expecting something else; first was a cream ale, now a "West Coast Ale", but both would not be out of place in an English pub. This is very malty with English style dry grassy hops. It is nicely balanced, pleasantly malty and nice to drink, but not what I'd expect today for a West Coast style. On the other hand, this is likely to be what an English inspired ale might have been on the West Coast in the last century, and that's not a bad thing. Just south of British Columbia, we have quite a very small selection of good, malty English style ales. Truth is, I'd buy this again in a heartbeat. I like malty ales and this is well balanced and flavorful. The only flaw is a bit of butteriness in the aroma, but that does not show up in the tasted. Hops are traditional and not too exciting, but appropriate for the rest of the ale. I like this quite a bit.
