Introduction

Neighbourhood Brewing resides in the heart of Penticton, British Columbia. Nestled within the Okanagan Valley, between Okanagan and Skaha lake, there was never a more perfect place for the making of craft beer. Neighbourhood Brewing takes their cue from their surroundings, making beer that is laid-back, enjoyable, perfect for sitting on a patio, and at all times fun. And along with making great beer, Neighbourhood Brewing is about making a great community. Supporting their local soup kitchen, participating in the Naramata Beach Preservation, or sponsoring the local kids ski club, the brewery strives to be a force for good all over the Neighbourhood. Currently running four core beers and a handful of seasonals, their taproom focuses on clean, crisp beers that are easy to share. The Happy Place is a pale ale with juicy fruit flavours and strong hop character that lights up your taste buds. Serves well at 8°C and should be enjoyed right away.


How it looks

Pours a pale, nearly clear yellow colour with a lot of carbonation. A frothy, pillowy head of foam pours from the can and recedes to a small island of foam floating around the beer.

How it smells

Subtle aroma from this beer, you’ll get a touch of tropical fruit typical of a pale ale and a little bit of green, leafy hops playing in the background, but not much else is revealed.

How it tastes

This is a hop-forward beer, with the slightly bitter, earthy loam and fresh cut leaves taking centre stage. The fruity character cuts the hops a touch to give it some balance, but not by much. Most of what you’ll be tasting is the hops, which take a turn toward a slightly mineral and salty finish with a dry mouthfeel. Lean and light pale ale, good for a hot patio day.

Recommended food pairing

Something spicy, but also something not too strong in the flavour, otherwise you’ll crush the quiet elements of this beer. Chicken Paprikash comes to mind.
