A Collaboration IPA brewed with our friends over at Brewhall. This IPA has a malt bill of Pilsner and Oat Malt and hopped with a generous amount of Arianna and Comet in the Kettle. Then Dry-Hopped with even more Comet and Sabro Hops. This IPA is smooth, juicy, and has a pleasant subtle bitterness.

473mL can, pours a cloudy dull golden with a small white head. Aroma has notes of overripe fruits, resinous hops, pine, and some earthy notes. Flavour is full of overripe fruits, some pine, pithy stone fruits, and some biscuity malt. Too much overripe fruit here, but it's not too bad. Pleasant.

Good cloudy yellow body and nice stable foam, soft unsweetened pineapple on the nose, some breadfruit, musty apricot. Flavour is soft sweetness, mellow grain, easy fruitiness. Slightly wet but still crisp enough. Incredibly well balanced.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Cloudy blond colour. The aroma is soft, perfumey, citrus fruit, very light dank hop. Lean and almost dry mouthfeel, with some crispy malt and oats base, right as it should be for a modern IPA; the hopping is gentle, with citrus character, a bit piney, moderately bitter, but mostly balanced. Excellent, modern IPA.
