16oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square. Absolutely nothing in the way of information about this offering on the interwebs, but that's not unusual for the contract 'brewers' of the moment.
This beer appears a slightly hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with one skinny-ass finger of wispy and bubbly dirty white head, which leaves a few instances of ocean plume lace around the glass as things slowly sink away.
It smells of grainy and doughy pale malt, a further wet breakfast cereal thing, dead lager yeast, mild apple and muted citrus peel fruity notes, and very weak earthy, weedy, and musty floral green hop bitters. The taste is grainy and bready pale malt, wheaten cereal, a wee sense of Euro (or local, who the hell knows) gasohol, an indistinct pome and citrus fruitiness, and more tame leafy, floral, and dead grassy verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its supportive and sometimes randy frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really getting in the way of a good time here, somewhat surprisingly. It finishes trending dry, the plain grainy malt and noble hop bitterness doing well to compel me in their lingering morass.
Overall (heh, 'more ass'), this comes off a whole bushel of good more than I was perhaps expecting - it might not quite be the 'west coast' IPL ideal that it was aiming for, but what we are instead left with is a decently balanced and quaffable lager, nothing less and nothing more.
