As the climate of the North Coast is not suitable for the cultivation of hops, residents have traditionally flavoured their beer using a variety of other botanicals, most prominently spruce or pine buds and heather. These techniques persisted even after the establishment of reliable trading networks made hops from the southern East Highlands available to North Coast settlements, and the region's spruce and heather ales continue to be produced in the style of the early pioneers. | As the climate of the North Coast is not suitable for the cultivation of hops, residents have traditionally flavoured their beer using a variety of other botanicals, most prominently spruce or pine buds and heather.

===Upper Kirav=== | |||
The northernmost region of inland Kirav, bounded by the Lake Belt to the south, Eastern Highlands to the east, and Western Highlands to the West, is known as Upper Kirav. The boundary between Upper Kirav and the Northern Fringe is not precisely defined, and in many non-cultural contexts the Northern Fringe is included in Upper Kirav. | |||
This region has a mainly hemiboreal to mesoboreal climate, and its dominant form of vegetation is {{wp|boreal forest}}. | |||
