Poured from the tap. Cloudy yellow gold with small white head. Juicy citrus hops. Simple and enjoyable.

Very dark, can't see through this. Nice, thick head. It's got some smoothness to it, and a light toasty note. But it's thin, lacking in sugary richness. I know I prefer a sweeter tmavy, but this isn't so bad.

Jet black with a small beige head. Light chocolate notes. Chocolate and a nutty and banana note. A bit artificial and the banana doesn’t taste right.

Pale clear gold with a decent white head. Light buttery bready notes. Bitter and pithy with not much else going on.

Clear pale yellow gold with a decent white head. Nice orange notes and some citrus peel. Very bitter peel up front and a nice hit of citrus.

Hazy, pale, medium head. Lightly vinous nose, tart, light vinous notes. Some phenols but good balance.

Dark brown. Medium head. Light chocolate on the nose. Lightish body, off-dry, husky and a bit toasty. Comes across simple, and not bringing oatmeal or raisin, so missed opportunity maybe.

Murky purple-brown sort of colour. No head. Tart, light, plum comes through more than the blackberry. Not bad, light sharp and okay fruit character.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Blond colour, slightly hazy. Mild aroma of piney hops, very light rubber. Lean, dry, weaker than some other Cold IPA, light resinous hops, and a stronger mineral expression than the average.
I get some more realistic Cold IPA traits here, but it's not as expressive and good as other "hoppy lagers in disguise".

Can from Legacy LRS, Vancouver
Blond colour, bright, sunny, hazy to cloudy. Strong aroma of piney hops. Crackery malt base, with mild residual sweetness, well structured, enough body; then, potent hopping, mainly resinous, piney, with some dankness; strong bitterness too, like in the old times.
Well made, modern West Coast IPA.
