Description
Twin Sails Brewing joined Port Moody’s “Brewers Row” late in 2015, opening right next door to Yellow Dog. The name of the brewery refers to its founders, identical twin brothers, as well as the common sight of sailboats that can be seen on the waters of the Burrard Inlet right out front of the brewery. Twin Sails focuses on progressive American IPAs and stouts and have recently implemented a wild barrel program. They are always trying to push the boundaries of what can be done with beer in BC. Quality comes first and foremost, but in the end, it’s just a bunch of guys and girls having way too much fun brewing beer.

473ml can from the The Gull. Canned on 30-Dec-2016. Pours a hazy golden with a white head. Aroma stone fruits, slightly earthy. Taste is pretty the same with very low bitterness and some very slight boozy notes. Good stuff.

473 ml can. Pours a cloudy amber with light head. Aromas of candied oranges, stoned fruit, pineapple, and sweet bready malts. Flavors of muddled fruit and spicy pineapple with doughy malts. Simple but really nice. I like...

Can - Grapefruit, light metallic notes and pith. Hazy gold with a frothy white head. Citrus and a creaminess that is hard to describe, light grain notes and of course no bitterness. Interesting.

473mL can, pours a cloudy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out notes of oranges, resinous hops, and some tropical fruitiness. Flavour is along the same lines, with lots of tropical fruits, resinous hops, and pine. Juicy but dry. Very drinkable but nothing overly special.

473 ml can. Pours a bright amber with moderate head. Aromas of pine, oranges, nectarines, and pineapple with just a little toasty malts. Flavors of pithy orange, pine, sharp grapefruit, muddled tropical fruit and sweet dry malts. Definitely fruity. Resiny finish.

Can, Legacy. Hazy darker blonde. Big orangey nose, some alcohol and some thicker pale malts on the nose. On the body it’s thinner...call it juicy if you want but thinner and without enough bitterness to support that bright orange rind hop properly.

Can. Mud with no head. Certainly pulling pineapple on the nose, and this has a mellow bitterness with vague tropical fruits. Ok... a muddy IPA but with no direction.

Very juicy, with respectable bitterness, a bit dank. Excellent.

Murky blond colour. For the style, it has a good mouthfeel, lean, moderately sweet and not chalky. Juicy character, orange juice and orange peel, and maybe that orange peel bitterness in the finish is the unwanted guest to the party.

The stronger body really adds a dimension to the Dat Juice, it's mellow and very juicy.

Hazy to cloudy bond color, medium head. Nice fresh aroma of tropical fruits. The mouthfeel is rather dry and lean, can't believe this is 7.5%; the pale malt is delicate, not too expressive though; the hopping is perfect, being juicy and not even bitter; tropical fruit upfront, calamansi in between, and more evident zesty citrus fruits in the late final, grapefruit peel. Excellent.
Very fresh and very drinkable.
