16oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square. Made using powdered hops, which apparently is called 'cryo', due to a proprietary cryogenic separation process that isolates the shit that you might or might not want in yer hop profile. Creepy.
This beer appears a slightly hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with one skinny finger of wispy and weakly bubbly bone-white head, which leaves some grotto cave profile lace around the glass as things slowly progress.
It smells of bready and crackery pale malt, muddled domestic citrus rind, a bit of hard water flintiness, and more earthy, leafy, and piney green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy cereal malt, some damp minerality, mixed citrus and tropical fruity notes, a hint of earthy yeast, and more leafy, musty, and floral verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly low-key in its innocuous frothiness, the body a decent middleweight, and mostly smooth, with nothing really getting in the way of a swell time here. It finishes off-dry, the malt and hops in a lingering pas-de-deux.
Overall - this is a more or less well-made pale ale, the hop method keeping up appearances, as such, even if the malt comes out on top in the end. Worth checking out, especially if you're into the latest new thing (who has two thumbs...).
