355ml bottle, part of Mill Street's 'Summer Brewpub' mixed 12-pack, the Calgary location's contribution therein. Lots of floaties evident when pressed to the light - oh boy.
This beer pours a cloudy, dark apricot amber colour, with four fingers of puffy, rocky, and somewhat chunky ecru head, which leaves a few thick swaths of splotchy lace around the glass as it very slowly sinks away.
It smells of grainy and biscuity caramel malt, warm toffee, muddled tropical fruit, a touch of domestic citrus rind, and some plain leafy, weedy, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is bready and doughy caramel malt, subtle orange and red grapefruit citrus, a still blended exotic fruitiness, and more understated earthy, leafy, and gently perfumed floral verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is quite tame in its bored-seeming frothiness, the body a solid medium weight, and mostly smooth, just a touch of hop acridity maybe not totally toeing the company line here. It finishes off-dry, the complex malt predominating.
Overall, despite initial appearances, this is a well-made, and enjoyable version of the style, with the Mosaic hops doing their best to provide a rounded experience. Easy to drink, and not particularly bitter, which I know will play well in the sticks.
