750ml, big-boy bottle - more complicated yeasty, wine barrel aged, and well, really, fussy brew, it would seem - oh, and our old friend Brett - yeah.
This beer pours (after a retarded amount of immediately post cap-popping overflow - and thanks for messing with my otherwise innocent phone, just saying) a very hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with three fingers of puffy, weakly foamy, and bubbly off-white head, which leaves some speckled landform lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.
It smells of musty orchard fruit, zesty white pepper and coriander spice, gritty and grainy pale and wheaty malt, strangely timid yeast, and some plain leafy, weedy, and grassy green hop bitters. The taste is bready and slightly doughy pale malt, a lesser spicy wheatiness, some heady stone pit fruitiness, a wayward son yeasty thing, waning vanilla-forward oaky notes, more plain earthy spice, and a now subtle leafy, weedy, and dead grassy hoppiness.
The bubbles are pretty tame in their gentle and really inoffensive frothiness, the body a plain medium weight, and smooth, I suppose, as the gentle funkiness here has very little bearing on the overall experience, as it were. It finishes off-dry, the fruity, yeasty, and mildly musty barrel esters carrying the day.
Overall, this is an agreeable and eventually easy to drink farmhouse lager, the sort constructed in a south Calgary industrial park, if that really matters to you (it does to me), which keeps we Albertans all on our collective heels, in the sense that the funk really should still be considered, um, well, considerable.
