On tap at Parallel 49, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma reveals plenty of earthy hops, toasted malt, and some muddiness. Flavour is a bit muffled, but there's a decent balance between earthy hops and roasted malt. The whole thing is rather muffled though. The roast comes across weak and more toasty, while the hops are timid. It's not bad but needs a bit of work.

On tap at Parallel 49, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out fresh herbaceous notes, toasted nuts, and bready malt — very authentic with that herbaceous character. Flavour is much the same, highlighting that herbaceous character, with light residual sweetness and toasted bready malt on the finish. Good stuff.

On tap at Parallel 49, pours a clear ruby red / pink with a small white head. Aroma is tart and somewhat acetic, with tons of tart red currant — not much else to speak of. Flavour is tart, dry and jammy, with dry jammy currants, dry Belgian yeast, and toasted bready malt. Surprisingly nice, with high attenuation / low residual sweetness. Decent stuff.

Can from The Gull, North Vancouver
Cloudy blond colour. The aroma is moderately dank, onions. The mouthfeel is lean, off-dry, a bit chalky; the hopping is strong, but it's also very green, minty.

Slight haze, pale, thin head. Not much hop on the nose but it'�s fairiy bitter with stone fruit and pear notes. Dried apricot in there maybe, it'�s an interesting hop note.

Bright amber. Thin head. Toasty, with moderate bitterness. It'�s funny it is billed as an extra pale ale but to me those are very pale and dry. This is more English pale, I suppose. A clean EPA but that'�s kind of how the crackery, slightly toffeeish malt character lines up.

Pale just a slight chill haze, bright and fruity, light pale malt lends a bit of a biscuity note. Moderate bitterness. Not bad.

Medium brown, no head. Woody aroma, and on the palate it'�s got medium bitterness, a woody hop note, slight orange and mellow chocolate.

Sort of a dull hazy pale. Not much head. Bright and fruity. Soft body. Malts aren'�t a strong point but the bright tropical fruit character is quite nice. Moderate bitterness lends just enough bite to the finish.

Dark brown, thin head. Light chocolate, off-dry, fair bit of bitterness. More of a lighter, drinkable impy in the old rasputin style. I like the hoppiness, goes in a black dipa direction for me. And I definitely didn't notice any bourbon or orange peel. I can get behind that.
