Can from The Gull, North Vancouver, 11/16/20, 3 months old, 4.7% ABV
Blond colour, slightly hazy. Mild aroma of malt, corn husks, creamy corn. Crisp mouthfeel, the flavour too is a bit corn-creamy, rather than malt-bready, relatively low bitterness, not much hop character. Decent, but probably less hopped than any Helles I ever had in German brewpubs.

Poured from a 16 oz can dated November 26, 2019. Aroma is clean and malt forward with nice grain notes. Faint floral esters and light woodsy hop notes. Pours a brilliantly clear, golden color with a medium large, thick, fluffy white head that recedes slowly to a small film that lingers. Flavor has a medium light sweetness with moderate malt notes. Medium light bitterness and faint herbal hop notes. Light floral esters. Mouthfeel is light bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a nice beer with a great, clean malt profile. Fermentation was also really clean with just a bit of floral esters.
