On tap at Container, pours a cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma has a pretty muddled, sweaty, earthy hop character, with a bready malt base — either not good hops or they were added too early? Flavour is not pleasant at all: lots of muddled earthy hops, bready malt, some erratic bitterness, and just poor balance. This isn't good at all.

On tap at brewery. Pours clear golden. Aroma has resin and rubber/bandaids(?). Flavour is also mainly resin. Feels a bit off and one-note.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Hazy golden colour, bright. Aroma of bready malt and piney hops. Dry mouthfeel, good body structure; strong malt base, it's bready, with biscuit and toffee accents; bold bitterness, with plenty of hop resins.
Modern West Coast IPA, very good.

Poured from 473mL can (pkg Mar 15, 2022). Clear-ish gold with white head. Dankness, grapefruit hops, slightly malty, feint alcohol. A touch light on flavour, but decent.
