Mt. Begbie Brewing Co. Powerhouse Pale Ale English Pale Ale at 4.8% ABV (C$5.70 at Fernie Mountain Spirits, 650 ml, bottle date 12-Jul-2015)
Appearance: clear pale amber with a short ivory head, good retention and patchy lacing. (3/5) Aroma: biscuity and caramel malt, honey, grassy, light diacetyl. (6/10) Taste: moderate sweet, mild bitter. (6/10) Palate: medium body, lively carbonation, brief duration finish. (3/5)
I guess it’s reasonably true to style, but I’d be happier with more hop presence. Sessionable, and would probably go well with fish and chips. Can’t see ever bothering to try it again. (12/20)
