8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square. I never understood the point of blackening a perfect crisp and bright Pils, but I guess that it takes all kinds.
This beer appears a clear, dark orange-brick highlighted brown colour, with one skinny finger of puffy, loosely foamy, and somewhat bubbly beige head, which leaves some decent limestone cliff pattern lace around the glass as things quickly progress.
It smells of lightly roasted, bready and doughy cereal malt, some muddled black stone fruitiness, and plain earthy, musty, and herbal green hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy pale malt, bittersweet cocoa powder, faint day-old coffee grounds, some bruised pome fruity notes, and more understated musty, floral, and musty hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-assuring frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and generally smooth, with just a touch of ashiness getting all up in my grill at this particular juncture. It finishes trending dry, the malt faltering a tad in the face of the lingering charred essence.
Overall - this is a pleasant enough rendition of this old school style, nice and roasted and full of flavour. Just not the flavour I want in a Pils.
