500ml glass at the brewpub in Ritchie, with some fairly smarmy bartenders, FWIW.
This beer appears a clear, medium copper amber colour, with two fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly off-white head, which leaves some decent dissolving iceberg lace around the glass as it quickly bleeds out of sight.
It smells of grainy, bready pale malt, some tame hard water flintiness, a muddled pome fruitiness, a touch of generic citrus rind, and some plain leafy, herbal, and floral green hop bitterness. The taste is grainy and bready caramel malt, still mixed up citrus and apple/pear fruity notes, some (yes) steely mineral essences, and more understated leafy, weedy, and musty herbal verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-assuring frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and generally smooth, nothing more and nothing less. It finishes trending dry, the malt kind of bottoming out, while the noble hops keep on keepin' on.
Overall, this comes across as a pleasantly straight ahead (and actually) British version of the style, with the hops very evocative of the brewer's Yukon origins. Easy to put back, and quite in line with the other general crowd pleasing offerings available at this hipster focused, near southside Edmonton newcomer.
