Howe Sound Tasting @ Full Throttle Bottles
Howe Sound of B.C. will be the feature of this special Seattle tasting. Taste their new to the US, Imperial Pumpkin Ale, the infamous Pumpkineater! And others too! So come see what the Canadians are up to, eh! Howe Sound Brewery
Garibaldi Honey Pale Ale: A refreshing, lightly hopped golden ale brewed with all natural Lillooet honey. Made with barley, honey, hops, water, and yeast. Brewed in recognition of the Sea to Sky region’s highest peak, Mount Garibaldi (8,776 ft/ 2,675m) named for Italian hero Guiseppe Garibaldi, the man of two worlds.

Rail Ale Nut Brown: A smooth, flavorful nut brown ale with hints of chocolate and licorice. Made with 100% barley, hops, water, and yeast. Named in recognition of the region’s strong railway history and Squamish, BC’s West Coast Railway Heritage Park – home of the Royal Hudson and western Canada’s largest collection of heritage railway equipment.

Diamond Head Otameal Stout: A tradional oatmeal stout with and intense roast barley flavor. Mildly hopped using Willamette and Nugget hops. The robust flavor is balanced with a smooth creamy finish. Named for the razor’s edge ridge that comes off the south flank of Mount Garibaldi’s Atwell Peak. (and I thought it was named after the mountain in Hawaii!) North American Beer Awards Bronze, 2007
