20oz pint at the Tap Room bar, another on the nose Nordic-themed offering.
This beer appears a clear, red brick amber hue, with one finger of frothy and loosely foamy beige head, which leaves some sparse island dot lace around the glass as things slowly abate.
It smells of bready, biscuity caramel malt, a twinge of hard toffee, some genial drupe fruitiness, a touch of mineral water, and leafy, earthy hops. The taste is gritty caramel malt, apple flesh, pear cider, a touch of musty yeast, and further earthy, somewhat weedy, and leafy hops.
The bubbles are average in bearing, and fairly evenly distributed, the body a so-so medium weight, and not particularly smooth - that familiar minerality taking a pound of pithy flesh right about now. It finishes on the sweet side, but well-moderated by the biscuity character, and the generally complex lingering fruitiness.
Another decent rendition of a typical Canadian standard, by a brewpub in the virtual middle of nowhere. Well-made, more or less rounded, and easy enough to drink. If you find yourself in the area, worthy of sessioning, I'm sure.
