355ml can poured into tulip.
Pours a clear copper amber with two fingers of tan head that leaves a bit of splotchy lace as it recedes.
Smells of whole wheat cereal, apple skin, lightly toasted nuts, and cut grass.
Tastes of nutty bread, mushy apple, more toasted nuts and more grassy, flowery hops.
Feels soft and smooth. Medium bodied with frothy carbonation. Finishes dry.
Verdict: Recommended. A satisfying beer for a cool spring day.

8oz glass at Beer Revolution YEG Oliver Square. I don't know exactly what makes this a 'harvest' Vienna Lager, but I'll play along for the time being.
This beer appears a clear, bright, medium bronzed amber colour, with one skinny finger of wispy and bubbly off-white head, which leaves some decent streaky lace around the glass as things slowly sink away.
It smells of toasted bready and crackery cereal malt, some earthy nuttiness, faint pome fruity notes, and subtle leafy, musty, and floral noble hop bitters. The taste is gritty and grainy pale malt, some free-range ashiness, oily bar-top nuts, mild baked apple essences, and more understated earthy, herbal, and grassy green hoppiness.
The carbonation is average in its workaday frothiness, the body a so-so middleweight, and generally smooth, with nothing really getting in the way of a swell time at the moment. It finishes trending dry, the roasted malt predominating.
Overall - this comes across as a duly reverent version of the style, with the 'harvest' part of the equation still sort of in doubt. Is it the hops, which are not really a factor, or something else? Whatever, it's good, and I suppose that's what matters in the end.
