4oz pout at their East Van taproom. Pours murky dark orange with white head. Aroma has a generic berry jam. Flavour has lactose, light berries, some stringent berry notes on the finish. Berry flavours are muddled; not unpleasant but pretty boring.

473ml can. Pours a cloudy amber red with yeast particles in suspension and a thin, fizzy, short lived, off-white head that laces. Sweet fruity aroma of bready pale malt, raspberry and floral hops. Sweet fruity flavour of grainy pale malt, raspberry and floral hops in a crisp, dry, slightly tart finish. Light body with a watery texture and average carbonation. A one-trick pony, but crushable. A good summer patio beer.

Aroma of mellow plum on the nose. Has a bit of clear orange liquid with a soft white head. Flavour is good fruity sweet jam stuff. Mouthfeel is weak and watery. This needs more oomph - enough with these watery west coast experiments!

On tap at VCBW Festival 2017, pours a clear copper golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out light raspberries, not much else. Flavour is similar, with light raspberries, dry biscuity malt and a touch of bitterness. Restrained, mild and pleasant, but extremely boring.

Draught at Devil’s Elbow, Vancouver
Hazy blond color, creamy head. It has the lightest aroma of raspberry. Dry mouthfeel, but with some bready and crackery malts, correct bitterness, a raspberry vibe, and some tannins.
Clean and professionally brewed.

On tap at White Spot, Squamish. Nose is light toffee, grass and raspberry. Hazy medium amber under a small short lived white head. Light sweet with a similar grassy bitterness and a touch of raspberry tartness. Mouth is slightly thin with average carbonation and a short crisp finish. Easy drinking but not out of the ordinary. 6/3+/6 /3/12

The cream ale base is focused on clean, bready pale malts. Not much bitterness. Light raspberry taste...well balanced but ultimately uncreative old school raspberry ale. I don’t hate the beer on its merits, but it’s 2017 for fuck’s sake. Most places stopped brewing this type of beer in the 90s.
