355ml can - another offering made at Factory Brewing in Vancouver, BC. Perhaps exclusively for the Canadian market?
This beer pours a clear, medium golden yellow colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, loosely foamy, and somewhat fizzy off-white head, which leaves some layered streaky and sudsy lace around the glass as it quickly abates.
It smells of gritty and grainy caramel malt, baked apple and pear flesh, mildly estery lager yeast, and some tame earthy, musty, and perfumed floral green hop bitters. The taste is grainy and bready caramel malt, wet cardboard boxes, a stale pome fruitiness, strained yeast, and more unpleasant leafy, musky, and dead floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its flavour-spreading frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and mostly smooth, but for some invasive pithiness roaming about. It finishes off-dry, the cheap-ass malt continuing to do my palate zero favours.
Overall - yeah, I was surely prescient when I picked this one's style designation on this site. Malt likka all the way, if a bit on the low side ABV-wise. Not really worthy of my, or anyone else's time, I have to say. However, the 'a cleaved head can still drink beer' motto on the label does amuse me, if only for its nonsense factor.
