Nanaimo’s White Sails likes to name their beers after local landmarks an the Yellow Point Pale Ale is no exception. This beer comes in at 35 IBUs, 5.5% and is amber-brown in colour. Nearly three fingers of dense and lacing head settles slowly from the beer. An aroma of toasted malt, caramel, and English-style hop bitterness comes on the nose in a nice floral manner. The taste too is quite toasty with a caramel sweetness to it. The floral hop tones build quite quickly and give a balanced bitterness to the tasting. This beer is English in style as far as Pale Ales go but that is no reason that a BC craft beer fan can’t enjoy it. The Yellow point is balanced, well crafted and a very enjoyable BC brewed Pale Ale.

Alcohol – 5.5%
IBU – 35
Size – 650ml bottle
