Hudsons' current seasonal house brew, a 20oz pint at the Edmonton Oliver location.
This beer appears a clear, medium bronzed amber hue, with one finger of slickly foamy, and mostly bubbly off-white head, which leaves some random painted lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.
It smells of maraschino cherries, musty wheat and caramel malt, sulfur, and bitter leafy, weedy hops. The taste is more sweet, candied cherries, gritty wheat malt, caramel pudding, a certain yeasty astringency, and more subtle leafy, earthy hops.
The bubbles are pretty understated, barely a tic or hiccup to be found, the body a decent medium weight, and a bit clammy, whether from malt or 'fruit' it's hard to say. It finishes well off-dry, the malt shop cherry laying off for a while, letting the now starstruck, and not really up for it wheatiness to show its true colours.
Another plain-Jane Big Rock ale, this time sauced up with an overly sweet cherry cordial concoction. Tasty enough, I suppose, and I predict that it will sell well in the summer of '14, if the advance reporting is any indication. Good, but more for the Fruili and Steigl Radler crowd out there, IMHO.
