Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Blond, the first pour is just slightly hazy. Some smell of sweat, tomatoes, very light smell of cheese; some flowery hops. It's lean, with just light residual sweetness; the malt profile is good, it's deliate, a concept to keep building on; but something went sideways, maybe the fermentation, because the hopping is covered by some vegetable notes, petroleum, and quite strong alcohol.
It's drinkable, but less achieved than other IIIPAs from the same brewery.

473mL can, pours a hazy pale golden with a small white head. Aroma has some odd herbal notes, with light piney hops, bready malt and maybe some diacetyl (?). Flavour has an odd herbal, oniony hop character, a touch of pine, some light booze, bready malt, and light residual sweetness. The hop character is a bit off-base. Not their best.

Can, I think from Legacy but I was also at the brewery not too long ago. Darkish amber with a bit of chill haze, and a decent head. It's got a fairly bright citrusy character, orange, that sort of thing. Lots of malts, maybe some onions in there a bit, again orangey on the palate as the main hop note though. Some alcohol in the finish, but not a lot by TIPA standards. Decent, though that onion character is a bit much when it warms up and combines with the alcohol.

Very good creamy foam on a mostly clear medium gold body. Aroma is kind of an intriguing rancid lemon rind, maybe some very soft pine. Taste is meaty caramel and malt, chewy pine though it's subdued ending incredibly smooth for a beer this strong. Not as complex as I'd hope but still highly drinkable.
