Pretty well balanced Bretta IPA. Florals and some lime. Clear golden pour with decent head. Bitter end. The wild yeast of this is light, and the beer comes off overall more just like a Belgian IPA. Can.

473mL can, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a small white head. Nose is oily and dank, with big resinous hops, oily pine, and big dank notes. Flavour is pungent, with lots of dank hops, oily resins, some pine, and a touch of gooseberry. Wonderful dank, oily, piney hop expression. Excellent -- one of the best local WCIPAs in some time.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Blond colour, pale, hazy. Aroma of dank hops, some piney hops, and a touch of zest. Bone dry, some crispy malt elements, bread, then followed by bold bitterness, too much pith though, that covers some of the hop qualities. Aggressive. Bold, modern West Coast IPA.

Can, 0.473l, courtesy of CanCrusher. Aroma of herbs, pine, citrus and cereals. Pours clear golden color with medium sized soapy off-white head, nice lacing and sparkling appearance. Taste starts refreshing grainy and herbal, following is resinous and medicinal, mouthfeel is dry, while finish is heavy bitter. Full body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Nice fatty…
