1L howler from Sherbrooke Liquor store - what is a 'perfect fraction'? Aren't all fractions by definition imperfect, as in not a whole number? Anyways.
This beer pours a hazy, medium golden yellow colour, with a teeming tower of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly off-white head, which leaves some decent saggy webbed lace around the glass as it rather slowly sinks out of sight.
It smells of semi-sweet, bready and doughy caramel malt, some blood orange and red grapefruit citrus flesh, a further muddled tropical fruitiness, and some plain leafy, weedy, and piney green hop bitters. The taste is grainy and bready caramel malt, a mixed bowl of fruity goodness (seriously, it's difficult to pick out any particular one), some damp minerality, and more piney, herbal, and grassy verdant hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-coating frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and mostly smooth, but for a minor hop acridity making a dent in the surface sheen here. It finishes off-dry, the general frooty character keepin' on truckin'.
Overall - this is a pretty flavourful and engaging version of the style, once again seemingly made in the New England manner. Easy to put back at the just shy of standard ABV, so that's what I am going to do for the rest of the fading afternoon.
