Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Cloudy blond colour. Aroma of over-ripe fruit (pineapple, stone fruits). Lean mouthfeel, with very little residual sweetness; the hopping is very fruity, and the beer is quite clean, hence a fresh and highly drinkable one.
Very good.

Poured from 500mL bottle (bottled 2020.07.31; #43 of 550). Really nice rustic aroma with funk and bugs, some oak. Taste doesn’t match the nose. Taste has mild qualities of the nose, but overall quite bland. Could very well just be past it’s peak.

12oz @ Alex's. Appearance: almost clear blonde with a white head. Aroma: floral and lemony. Taste: along the same lines, crispy. Overall: it's a pretty refreshing beer, but it doesn't look like it spent enough time in a puncheon to get all those notes from the description.

Purplish colour. Tart, lots of berries, slight sweetness. Straightforward. A throwaway beer, really.

Hazy dull amber. Light toastiness, sort of lacks brightness. Not sure what this is about.

Pale with a slight haze. Light bitterness, a touch grassy, and there’s a bit of clean pale malt base. Not bad, probably a touch more grapefruit than the nz one.

Pale, hazy. Light coconut. Touch of alcohol, minor hop burn, soft and a bit of stewed fruit (seems common in Slackwater beers).

Poured from the tap. Clear gold with small white head. Light pine hops and a watery malt backing. It’s okay, but it’s overall just quite timid.

Mostly green onion with some light peel. Golden pour with a little haze, decent lacing. Light hop tang finish and otherwise clean--not a ton of body here. Tap at Quail's Gate.
