Cloudy, tan. Thin head. This has a big hop nose, and some of that hefeweizen yeastiness. Same on the palate, though more accent towards the weizen yeast, and big sweetness. The hops are less pronounced on the palate but there's still enough balancing bitterness.

Cloudy gold with a rich white head. A bit chalky and some citrus. Light earthy hops, light citrus and a dry light finish.

Murky blond colour, the head disappears quickly. The aroma is fruity and mildly spicy. Lean mouthfeel, off-dry, maybe a bit alcoholic; it has some Hefe spicy character, touch of cloves; low bitterness; the hop has some piney resins in the background, it's not fruity. I didn't know what to expect, maybe one more fruity NE IIPA; but indeed this is a bold Hefeweizen, midway between a Hefe and a Weizenbock, with some more orangey hop.

Nice peach juice aroma, has muddy yellow body with little foam. Flavour is nice bright peach, sweet hops, vague flavoured detergent hints. Mouthfeel is full enough and the abv is invisible. It's fun, fruit, easy drinking.

16oz on Alex's deck. Appearance: cloudy golden with a white head. Aroma: smoky, some semi-sweet bananas, some esters. Taste: along the same lines with notes intrinsic to the hefeweizen. Overall: pretty good.

473mL can, pours a cloudy bright golden orange with a medium white head. Nose is full of citrus hops, lots of banana, esters, clove and bubblegum. Flavour is bright, fruity, and estery, with lots of bubblegum, banana, esters, pronounced citrus hops, and alcohol. For what it is, it's done decently; I'm just not really a fan of all the esters. Fairly alcoholic as well. Decent attempt.

Cloudy yellow with a decent white head. Banana and citrus. Bit of citrus, banana and bready notes. As I thought, just not my thing.

Can. Both berries show in the colour. Basic berry kettle sour with a juicy acidity. Not much to think about.

Can. Looks ugly, and there's no head. Ok hop but overall just okay. The malts go nowhere, and it doesn't seem to be a particularly professional beer.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver; batch 3
Murky blond colour with medium sized head. Impressive aroma, an explosion of tropical fruit. Lean, dry body, with a crisp malt character, tropical fruits from the hops, and a touch of chamomile.
It manages to avoid the traps of the style, very good.
