8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square - everything is coming up Brut of late.
This beer appears a hazy, medium apricot yellow colour, with a thin layer of wispy and bubbly bone-white head, which leaves a bit of spotty lace around the glass as things steadily sink away.
It smells of candied oranges, bready and doughy cereal malt, a bit of stoney flintiness, and very faint earthy, musty, and piney hop bitters. The taste is more juicy orange citrus peel, gritty and grainy pale malt, a lesser crackery wheatiness, some damp minerality, and plain leafy, herbal, and dead floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly benign in its bored-seeming frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really a cause for concern at this point in the game. It finishes off-dry, somewhat surprisingly.
Overall - the relation to an actual Mimosa is tenuous at best, as the 'Brut' aspect (for the Champagne, I presume) is lacking. Not to mention the wan bubbles, which should be present in both beverages. Colour me underwhelmed.
