650ml bottle - a fundraiser for YWCA Banff's Walk a Mile in Her Shoes (a domestic violence prevention program), and made in collaboration with fellow Bow Valley brewers Banff Ave and Canmore Brewing.
This beer pours a murky, medium salmon amber colour, with three fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and somewhat fizzy pale pink head, which leaves a few instances of random sudsy archipelago lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.
It smells of musty blackberries and raspberries, some tart lacto, grainy and crackery pale malt, a further earthy yeastiness, and some very weak leafy, weedy, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is bready and crackery pale malt, a mixed dark berry fruitiness, soured milk, middling yeast, and more understated leafy, herbal, and dead floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is pretty laid-back in its clock-punching frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and mostly smooth, which is all I can really mention at this particular juncture. It finishes trending dry, the fruit persisting in its stripped-down state, amongst the ruins of the kettle soured maltiness.
Overall - this is a pleasant enough and easy to put back version of the style, with the blackberries doing well to provide a robust fruitiness. And all for a good cause, whose need goes beyond the singular event represented here.
