8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square - a coffee ale, with some exotic blend from Transcend.

This beer appears a slightly hazy, pale golden yellow colour, with a thin cap of wispy and bubbly off-white head, which leaves some decent mitochondrial pattern lace around the glass as things slowly sink away.

It smells of bready and doughy cereal malt, faint artisanal coffee, and very little else. The taste is gritty and grainy pale malt, still hard to discern cuppa Joe notes, some damp minerality, and a very subtle earthy, musty, and dead floral hoppiness.

The carbonation is fairly active in its palate-tickling frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and mostly smooth, with nothing really getting in the way of a quotidian experience at this particular juncture. It finishes trending dry, the malt starting to lose its grip on reality.

Overall - yeah, I'm not really feelin' what this offering is putting out there, which is admittedly not very much. If you didn't inform me ahead of time that this was made with coffee, I probably wouldn't have even noticed. So, to summarize - not a bad beer, just a bad coffee beer.
