20oz pint at the Next Act pub in Edmonton. It's like these English-style pint glasses are a thing of the past around here of late. And no, thank you for asking, but I'm not from Fort McMurray.

This beer appears a slightly hazy, medium bronzed amber hue, with one fat finger of laid-back, finely foamy off-white head, which leaves some solid snow rime splatter lace around the glass as things slowly wick away.

It smells of orange creamsicle, grainy caramel malt, a bit of hard water minerality, and further leafy, grassy hops. The taste is rather bitter pine needle, extremely isolated grapefruit and orange rind acerbity, bready, crackery pale and caramel malt, and once again, more floral, perfumed hop notes.

The carbonation is pretty much well under the radar, the body on the far side of medium weight, and more or less smooth, the merest hint of creaminess trying to emerge. It finishes well off-dry, the persistent toffee-tinged caramel malt sloughing off the last of any threatening hops, save an echo of orange sherbet.

A tasty enough brew, the dessert-prone citrus character enough to guarantee that as such. However, the lagging and sagging hop bitterness just isn't up to the task, petering out as it does. An ill-named brew, as this one barely has the legs to make it to full time.
