Description

After hearing all of the reviews of the West Coast Pale Ale, I was afraid it was going to be a disappointing first home brew experience. I let it ferment for 2 weeks, carbonate warm for two weeks, an then put them in the fridge until I wanted to drink one. Everyone that tried it was absolutely impressed at how good it was, including me! Can't wait for the next batch to finish!
