Drinkers Review:
The Stone & Wood Pacific Ale won a Silver medal at the World Beer Cup in the English-Style Summer Ale category in 2016.
This clear pale golden yellow beer is a nice solid offering from Stone & Wood. The beer pours a clear yellow with a white head and mild citrus lemon scent. It is fresh and hoppy and light and fruity and so easy to drink. At 4.4% so you can keep drinking them without that bloated heavy feeling in your gut. It is an awesome session beer and easy to smash down on a hot Summer day and then continue well into the evening. If you are looking for something a little lighter and easier to drink, then I would definitely recommend this one for a session.
