Life on the West Coast can be summed up in three little words... take it easy. Going for a pint at your local hangout, spending some time in the outdoors, or enjoying a BBQ in the back yard is the calling when the weekend arrives. Introduced in 1990, Shaftebury Easy Honey Pale Ale was British Columbia's first "honey" beer. It takes 5 ingredients and at least 20 days to make this unique Honey Pale Ale. We use only the best malted barley, hops, yeast, water and a touch of honey. Easier on the sweetness than most honey beers, this beer is best served at 4вк Celsius to bring out the gentle honey aftertaste. Like the name says, it's a bit easier on the sweetness than most brewe in this style. Sit back, relax and enjoy a couple of this BC favourite!!!

[1] Review by pootz from between Calgary and Waterloo, Canada who has tried this beer once. (11/12/2008 7:09:07 PM)
"Pours a crystal clear burnished gold color with a one finger rocky cap. Fair head retention and lacing.
Aroma is lightly fruity with a musty sweetness to it and leafy hops in the background.
Light palate, soapy moth feel, modest malt spine, fruity lightly bitter soft character.
Up front you get some modest biscuit malts and a splash of light sweeness (honey?) then mid palate the hops shift from herbal to lightly bitter then dominate the flavor profile to the clean dry finish,
A light slightly dry pale with a light kiss of sweetness...not bad... pleasant but unmemorable."
