Gold body with slow moving carbonation, must be oily, good foam on top. Nice sweet hops on the nose, slight cream, vague peach. Flavour is sweet and weedy hops, soft biscuit notes. Bigly oily, carbonation is pretty mellow. If you like your IPAs chewy you'll like this.

Good copper brown body and okay foam, sweet caramel on the nose reminiscent of those macro red ales like Rickard's Red or something. Hey, at least it smells of something. Flavour is very heavy sweet grain, overly sweet biscuit and more caramel. There's this terrible aftertaste I can't get behind. Maybe if I drink enough of it I won't notice? Still.... flawed.

M60 is the big gun Rambo used, but obviously you knew Hope's first brewery would lap up the references to the town's main claim to fame. Nice fresh orange taste. The base beer comes across a bit strong, and ends up clashing a bit with the orange. But it's not bad.

This one's sweet. Now, I know that Anchor Steam is pretty sweet compared with a lot of beers these days, so I get that part. What I don't get is the bubblegum. Seems they fermented a touch too warm for the yeast, left it sticky and Big League Chew.

More classic West Coast than anything else. Nice pine/citrus aroma. On the palate, similar hop profile, some nice toasty malts. A solid option here.

Pale gold. Bright. Crisp. A solid pils - not sure if I'm going top 10 in BC because we have quite a few really good ones, but I liked it and it was the best on the flight.
