12 oz can. Pungent crazy constantly shifting nose with notes of lemon, sticky green bud, sour berry jam, peaches, latex, melon, randy wet vaginas. Pours slightly hazy deep golden/light copper with an off-white head that collapses into a collar after a minute. Taste starts out candy sweet and lightly sour before finishing with a dry leafy hop bitterness. Flavors of cherry pits, lemon, melon, garlic, grapefruit pith. Smells better than it tastes, but it’s definitely interesting and very unique.

From a 12 oz. can. Pours a clear brownish copper with an ecru head. Aroma of tropical fruits. Flavors of tart apple with some sweet cherry. Pretty agreeable, but it’s taking me some time to warm up to sour IPAs.

Grunt fill from Albertsons. Pleasantly surprised, mildly sour, but allowing the hops to have their say. Mildly fruity, slick, slippery

On tap at Sockeye Pub & Grill, pours a clear blonde with a small white head. Aroma and flavour of loads of lacto, floral hopping, and a thin malt layer. The lacto is pretty monolithic here. Solid.

Draft at Sockeye on Fairview. Golden pour with a small amount of white head, little bits of lacing. The aroma is mild, tropical fruit and woody sour bits. Tastes more like a sour than an IPA, light dry hopping is noticeable, but mostly melon and tropical fruit. A but woody and what seems like lactobacillus. Different than expected from the description, but overall quite good for sure.

On tap at the Sockeye Tap-Take over, BitterCreek. slight haze. Dull golden. White off white thin hean and web like lacing. Slightly tary aroma, less so in the flavors. MIddle of the road IPA bitterness, but citrusy and fruity. Melon and grapefruit pith. Nice moderate bitter trailer.
