473ml can - what is it with craft brewers in NE Alberta and their predilection for blonde beer with blonde babes on the labels?
This beer pours a hazy, pale golden yellow, with a teeming tower of puffy, finely foamy, and mildly bubbly bone-white head, which leaves some layered and streaky cloud form lace around the glass as it lazily blows off.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, some musty and sort of phenolic yeastiness, a hint of burnt plastic, and ephemeral earthy, weedy, and floral green hop bitters. The taste is bready and doughy pale malt, a still edgy yeasty essence, plastic packaging material (you know, like when you try to open a stubborn wrapper with your teeth), a faint underripe apple fruitiness, and more well understated earthy, musty, and dead floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-coating frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and not particularly smooth, not with the previously-mentioned esters swirling about. It finishes trending dry, the graininess waning, and that plastic thing lingering like a bad dream.
Overall - yeah, there has to be a touch of infection going on here, as, while this style typically bores the hell out of me, it doesn't usually offend my tastebuds' better sensibilities. Back to the ol' drawing board, or perhaps canning line, eh?
