8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square.
This beer appears a hazy, pale golden straw colour, with a thin cap of wispy and faintly bubbly off-white head, which leaves some approaching thunderstorm profile lace around the glass as things slowly progress.
It smells of tart orange, white grapefruit, and lemon citrus peel, gritty and grainy cereal malt, some hard water flintiness, and more leafy, weedy, and piney green hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery pale malt, muddled domestic citrus rind, some damp minerality, and more herbal, musty, and dead floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is fairly benign in its inert-seeming frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and generally smooth, with nothing really getting all up in my palate at this particular juncture. It finishes trending dry (duh), the hops starting their lingering downward spiral.
Overall - this comes across as a somewhat underwhelming version of the style, given the home runs that this brewery has recently pumped out. And I know that this kind of newfangled IPA is supposed to be low on the bitterness scale, but it shouldn't be damned near absent. And what's with the price - double that of similar made in Alberta offerings?
