1L howler from Sherbrooke Liquor store - a combination of adjuncts that I have never seen before, I do believe.
This beer pours a clear, medium golden yellow colour, with one flabby finger of puffy, loosely foamy, and somewhat bubbly dirty white head, which leaves some dissolving iceberg profile lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.
It smells of bready and doughy cereal malt, clover honey, some earthy yeastiness, and very subtle leafy, herbal, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy caramel malt, hippie breakfast biscuits, honeyed crackers, sort of estery yeast, and more well-understated herbal, weedy, and hay-like hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-supporting frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and essentially smooth, with nothing really causing any sort of concern here, but the oats aren't particularly noticeable, by the same sword. It finishes trending dry, the honey and malt petering out, waiting for a re-up.
Overall - this is a very flavourful offering, one definitely made more for pounding back on a patio, as opposed to picking apart in a review. I'm not really trying to shit on what I do, but perhaps it's time to take this show out to my very warm deck, with BC (British Columbia, not Bench Creek) forest fire smoke lending a woodsy ambience to my back yard.
