355ml can - apparently Idaho 7 hops have been renamed 007: The Golden Hop. Kinda cheesy.
This beer pours a clear, bright medium golden copper colour, with three chubby fingers of puffy, rocky, and bubbly dirty white head, which leaves some stellar honeycomb pattern lace around the glass as it slowly seeps away.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, muddled domestic citrus peel, a further honeydew/melon fruitiness, and some subtle earthy, leafy, and grassy green hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery pale malt, some orange and lemon citrus zest, a damp minerality, and more understated leafy, musty, and piney verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-baiting frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really a cause for concern at this point in the process. It finishes trending dry, the hops and crackery malt setting up shop in the lingering strip mall.
Overall - this comes across as a quaffable enough offering, showcasing that good ol' Alberta malt, as well as a relatively new hop varietal. Enjoyable, and with lots of flavour to go around, I shall be content watching the mini rivers of melting snow run down the street in front of the house. It's the little things in life, eh?
