Spruce tips are fun but the tropical galaxy dry hop weirds this out. Also not as bitter as I would have expected which leaves a bit of spruce after taste which isn't great.

12oz tulip at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square - so this is made with spruce tips, then? And what's with the hipster name - because that particular greenery predates the Internet?
This beer appears a hazy, medium apricot amber colour, with one finger of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly off-white head, which leaves some pockmarked limestone wall lace around the glass as it slowly abates.
It smells of gritty and grainy caramel malt, some muddled domestic citrus rind, a hard water flintiness, and more leafy, weedy, and piney green hop bitters. The taste is bready and doughy caramel malt, orange and red grapefruit citrus flesh, a bit of spruce tip acridity, some damp minerality, and more leafy, piney, and herbal verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its workaday frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really spoiling the ongoing party here. It finishes off-dry, the frooty hop essences presiding.
Overall - this is a pleasant enough version of the style, with the apparent spruce tip additions applied by a judicious hand. Crisp, quaffable, and it's always nice to enjoy those extra few gratis ounces when the bar screws up your order.
