- There`s a small brewery in Manchester called the West Coast Brewing Company.
-
- They do a spot-on copy of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, which for legal reasons
- they've had to rename Yakima Grandee Pale Ale. 5.0% alcohol, very dry, very
- hoppy. An excellent beer and has won a few awards.
-
- It's occasionally available in the free trade and at beer festivals. The pub
- itself is hard to find but is in Manchester City Centre. It`s called the
- Kings Arms on Helmshore Walk.
-
- They also make a Yakima Grandee Porter. I don't know if Sierra Nevada
- make a porter, but Anchor do and it's rather similar.
