8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square.
This beer appears a murky, medium copper amber colour, with one skinny finger of mildly puffy, loosely foamy, and somewhat bubbly off-white head, which leaves some decent Swiss cheese pattern lace around the glass as things slowly progress.
It smells of gritty and grainy pale malt, some faint black stone fruitiness, a hint of estery yeast, and some very plain earthy, musty, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is tart dark berries, bready and crackery cereal malt, more generic yeastiness, and a tame leafy, musty, and weird herbal hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its structurally supportive frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really causing any sort of trouble at this particular juncture. It finishes trending dry, the yeast kind of sealing the lingering deal.
Overall - this comes across as yer typical sour ale, with the supposed fruit sublimated by the sour notes. I am certainly glad that I didn't shell out for a whole bomber of this, so that's something, I guess.
