Opaque, with a thin head. Nice fruity nose - pear, guava, pineapple and grapefruit. Light body, moderate bitterness. Sort of creamy from the yeast and quite a bit of sweetness. Nice balance, lots of fruity hop character. Very drinkable, a true session.

Tall can (thx, Alex!). Pours a murky blonde with a white head. Aroma is a bit odd - very fresh, some strange floral and fruity notes. Similar taste. Very light. Meh.

Can - Pithy and juicy citrus. Murky yellow with a frothy white head. Nice citrus and some pithy notes with a light finish. Solid and juicy.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Murky light yellow colour. The aroma is very nice, tropical fruits, some sweet pineapple. The mouthfeel is lean and bone dry, the malt is very light, the bitterness is quite low but in balance with the rest, the hop provides a strong juicy feeling, lightly zesty, lhint of lemongrass.
I believe that the juiciness is improved by some sweetness, and also this beer has a tiny wet paper feeling, but overall it's an excellent sIPA/APA when fresh.
