Dark gold, chill haze, and a fairly thick head. Clean biscuity malts. Lemony, slightly piney hop. El Dorado is always a favourite.

473mL can, pours a clear copper with a medum white head. Aroma reveals some strawberry-like hops, a touch of melon, some earthy spiciness, and bready malt. Flavour bursts with fresh tropical hops -- lots of passionfruit, strawberry, some citrus, bitter grapefruit, and melon -- with a sufficiently sweet bready malt base. Though it's much on the aromatics, the flavour profile is very satisfying. Excellent.

473mL can, pours a clear golden with a medium white head. Nose brings out bright piney hops, melon, some grassiness, and a touch of sweet biscuity malt. Flavour is bright and fresh, with vibrant green melon, lots of piney and resinous hops, grassiness, and just enough sweet biscuity malt. Piney, melon-y, lightly sweet finish with pronounced bitterness. Excellent.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver; thanks Chris for bringing this in
It's clean, but amber colour; medium sized head. Very light aroma of biscuity malts. The mouthfeel is lean, at least not chewy or sweet; there's a base of bready malt, light toast; balanced bitterness; caramelized fruit is a bit too little for the hop profile. Oldish school, and modest anyway.

473 ml can. Pours a bright amber with moderate head. Aromas of floral dank hops and biscuity malts. Flavors of bitter fruit, dank hops and biscuity malts almost cereal like. Reminds me of a milder and bitter Fat Tug.

473mL can. Pours clear gold with thin white head. Aroma is quite light; strawberries, a bit of orange peel. Flavour has some soft malts, grapefruit. Berry notes throughout, but not a fruity beer. A bit of strawberry on the finish. Good amount of hoppiness. Nice.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver; 08/04/24, 1 month oldBlond colour, chill haze, greenish hue. The aroma is almost mineral, with light floral hops elements. It's not too dry, the malts are particularly juicy and mellow; balanced bitterness, with grass character, mild pine; gentle minerality in the finish.
Excellent.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver; 30/01/24, just 2 weeks old
Did they can this multiple times, and also bottle it? there seem to be different incarnations. Golden colour, clean, with medium head. Aroma of sugar, berries, jam. Solid malt base, a bit biscuity, with light residual sweetness; the hop gives piney resins and mild berry character; pleasant biscuity character in the finish.
A bit old school, but not bad.
