8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square. An atypically heady offering for this Alberta brewery that aims more at Peace Country's gateway drinkers.
This beer appears a clear, dark orange-brick brown colour, with a thin cap of weakly frothy and mostly just wispy ecru head, which leaves a bit of sparse and soapy remote islet lace around the glass as things slowly abate.
It smells weakly of grainy and bready caramel malt, generic pome fruity notes, maybe a hint of fig, and very little else. The taste is bready and doughy caramel malt, some surprisingly noticeable meaty smokiness, muddled black berry and bruised stone fruit, ephemeral yeast, a bit of bloated raisins, and some very innocuous earthy, musty, and floral noble hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly laid-back in its quotidian frothiness, the body a decent medium weight, and generally smooth, with nothing really getting in the way of a good ol' time here. It finishes off-dry, the caramel and mixed fruitiness holding on with the most gusto.
Overall - this one starts off kind of blandly, but as things warm up, some pleasant seasonal flavours emerge. Definitely worth checking out if you find yourself stranded in this particular northern burg (Grande Prairie, I mean).
