Can from The Gull, North Vancouver, 11/16/20, 3 months old, 4.7% ABV
Blond colour, slightly hazy. Mild aroma of malt, corn husks, creamy corn. Crisp mouthfeel, the flavour too is a bit corn-creamy, rather than malt-bready, relatively low bitterness, not much hop character. Decent, but probably less hopped than any Helles I ever had in German brewpubs.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver, 4.9% ABV, 11/23/2020
The can is gushing, probably just high pressure. Hazy blond colour, compact head, with long retention. Wonderful aroma, bready malts, with some grassy hops. The malt flavour is robust, yet the mouthfeel is lean, it's biscuity, almost toasted; the bold hopping seems to boost the malt too, it's moderately grassy and spicy, very bitter, slightly too bitter in the finish, but this brew has a lot of character.

I called this a Tmavy because a pilsner isn't black. Black body with tan head. Light grassy aroma with a little roast. Malty taste, just right with a little roast. Crisp taste

Pour is a brown with some red highlights and a large tan head. Aroma is dark malt, lots of caramel and toffee. Flavor is more caramel malt some dark fruit and toffee with some old dusty bookshelves. Finish leaves some sweetness on the tongue like a melted tootsie roll. It's Sweet but quite flavorful and just about everything your looking for in a doppelbock is found here.

A new version of the older IPA. Clear body, barman thought it looked like a pilsner, with a white head. Herby and spice aroma. Hop forward with not too much sweetness in the taste. Crisp finish

Pale amber with thin white head. Light smoke with biscuit aroma. Smoky malt but the smoke doesn't overwhelm the malt. Crisp beechwood and lager finish.

Clear dark yellow body with lasting white head. Grassy aroma. Malt forward taste with a little bit of diacetyl. Pilsnery finish. Still worth seeking.

16 oz. can. Born on 10/05/20. Very deep brown (near black) color. Flavor is soft dark fruits, molasses, lager yeast finish. It is damn near spot on style. Malt and yeast profile is mellow.
