Canned today, from The Gull, North Vancouver
Ugly murky yellow with generous compact head, at least the head is an improvement over the average NE IPA. The aroma is extremely dank, musky, with a late addition of tropical fruit and citrus zest. The mouthfeel is moderately chewy, but not flour-y or astringent; the dank character transfers from the aroma directly into the flavour, like rarely seen in other beers, the sweetness is very moderate, the hop character is also very piney, quite zesty, and with a harsh but acceptable level of bitterness in the end.
It's still very green, but I'm glad that I could try a beer so fresh. And it's going to be great.
