Slow Hand Beer Company was born out of the desire to craft objectively better Lagers. We take classic European styles and brew them with West Coast panache. A Slow Hand beer is brewed with enough character to keep the drinker interested, but not so big as to tire the palate. It is truly a session beer. Itโs Lager for Beer Geeks. Beer you donโt have to think about for people who think about beer. We are proudly the only beer company in BC to focus solely on Lager styles - It's in our name! Lager production is a notoriously slow, long process, which is why most breweries don't give them much thought. They're also clean beers that require a skilful hand since there are no extreme flavours to cover up mistakes.
