16oz pint at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square. This is apparently a blend of this brewery's Mercury Lager, and an unspecified fruit juice.
This beer appears a hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with one skinny finger of wispy and weakly bubbly bone-white head, which leaves pretty much nil in terms of lace anywhere near the glass as things quickly sink away.
It smells of tart lemonade, gritty and grainy pale malt, a bit of chalky flintiness, and very little else. The taste is grocery store brand lemon soda, crackery and grainy pale malt, wet stone paths after the rain, a hint of other muddled domestic citrus rind, and a distinct lack of any sort of booze warming, duh.
The carbonation is fairly active in its frolicking frothiness, the body a decent medium weight, and generally smooth, with a wee airy creaminess settling in as it warms up a tad. It finishes off-dry, the lemon not of the overly acerbic sort, and the base lager not leaving without a tussle.
Overall, this is an enjoyable enough version of this so far unrecognized style on this site - nice and fruity, which tempers the lager's rough edges, from what I recall. Refreshing and very easy to drink, which is always a plus right after Sunday morning soccer practice!
