355ml can - part 1 of an experiment in barley 'terroir'. I don't know enough about farming in Alberta to have any idea about their location clues on the labels.
This beer pours a hazy, salmon-tinged pale golden straw colour, with three fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and mildly bubbly bone-white head, which leaves some scattered sudsy lace around the glass as it lazily recedes.
It smells of bready and doughy cereal malt, a further biscuity graininess, faint apple and pear fruity notes, and subtle earthy, musty, and floral hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy pale malt, some yeasty breadiness, mixed pome skins, wet chalk, and more understated leafy, weedy, floral green hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly low-key in its workaday frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really causing any sort of concern here. It finishes off-dry, the malt complexity not wavering in the least.
Overall - well, this is indeed a very well-made, malty version of the style, quite fresh-feeling and a tad crisp. Good, good stuff, but moving on!
