473ml can. Pours a slightly hazy gold-yellow with a medium, foamy, long lasting, off-white head that laces. Dank aroma of biscuit malt, tropical fruit, peach, orange, pine and weedy hops. Sweet fruity flavour of caramel malt, orange, grapefruit, apricot, peach, pineapple and pine resin in a dry, bitter grass finish. Medium body with an oily texture and average carbonation. Hop forward and tasty.

Nice reliable hop aroma with honey notes, good off-white foam and a clear gold medium body. Flavour is chewy hops, candy, wet hoppiness. Did I mention the hops? Okay mouthfeel, adequate. Okay hoppy beer but nothing truly interesting here.

Golden. Thick head. Rich hop nose is piney, resiny. On the palate, it’s pretty chewy for a pale 6% IPA. Deep piney citrus bitterness almost like chinotto. Pretty intense but I like it.

On tap. Pours a cloudy amber with light head. Aromas of pineapple, dried fruit and toasted malts. Flavors of grassy stoned fruit, grain, pine and a lots of resin. Lots of piney resin.

473mL can, pours a hazy golden with tons of sediment and a large foamy white head. Aroma brings out lots of piney hops, metallic notes and toasted biscuity malt. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of piney hops and metallic notes, with just enough toasted biscuity malt. Piney and metallic, with a punchy finish. A bit too metallic, but it's fresh and pleasant to drink.

Can, from The Gull, Vancouver
Hazy copper color, bright. Nice piney aroma, some cereal husks too. Lean and dry body, not weak; the malt profile is a bit too strong, with notes of caramel and grains, rye, earthy; resiny hopping, with some vegetable bitterness in the final, chicory.
Clean, well executed, but it has a couple of elements that could be tweaked.

Tall can from The Gull. BB 2017-10-22. Pours a hazy golden with small white head. Aroma is slightly sweet with lots of citrusy hops. Taste is slightly dank and dirty with some tropical fruits notes and piney hops on the background. Piney hops aftertaste. Very good.

Can - Fresh and dank hops with nice citrus. Clear gold with a decent white head. Leafy hops, a bit herbal and some citrus, with a grassy light dankness.
