473ml can - great, another 'ideal summer beer', that arrives here just as the snow starts to fly. FCOL.

This beer pours a slightly hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat creamy bone-white head, which leaves a few instances of horizontal profile seagull lace around the glass as it quickly recedes.

It smells of gritty and grainy wheat malt, a further generic breakfast cereal sweetness, damp banana chips, subtle white and black peppercorn spicy notes, earthy yeast, and some ethereal leafy, weedy, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is bready and doughy pale malt, a lesser edgy wheatiness, muddled sugary fruity notes (banana, yeah, but also some plain citrus), an estery yeastiness, faded table-top pepper dust, and more well understated earthy, musty, and dead floral hoppiness.

The carbonation is average in its palate-placating frothiness, the body a solid medium weight, and generally smooth, with a nice airy creaminess seeping in once things warm up a tad around here. It finishes on the sweet side, with some lingering banana to go along with the stoic and sturdy malt.

Overall - this is indeed a pretty flavourful version of a style that, by definition, has a lot of it typically stripped out. Easy to drink, and yeah, probably nice and summery, if we on the Prairies had that option right now. Fucking inept reps.
