16oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square. The brewery only indicates 'citrus' for the Radler component, so I guess I'm gonna find out which kind soon (hopefully!).
This beer appears a hazy, medium whitish straw colour, with one skinny-ass finger of tightly foamy and somewhat creamy bone-white head, which leaves some streaky ocean plume lace around the glass as things slowly abate.
It smells of sugary lemonade, a bit of orange/grapefruit rind, some subtle earthy yeastiness, and a plain bready and doughy malt character. The taste is semi-sweet lemon, lime, and underripe orange citrus juice, a strangely spiced yeastiness, grainy and bready pale malt, and some ephemeral earthy, leafy, and floral verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly inert in its plebeian frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and pleasantly smooth, with a thin airy creaminess there from the get-go. It finishes off-dry, a generic citrus fruitiness holding court.
Overall, this is one of the more plain-seeming versions of the 'style' that I have come across - I suppose that it should have been clear to me from the ABV that this is no half and half typical deal. Yep, it's the Kölsch, with a minor dose of lemon/lime fruitiness tossed on top for all your underwhelming summer patio expectancies.
