355ml can - named after the first summer village established on Sylvan Lake. A West Coast IPA.
This beer pours a slightly hazy, medium apricot yellow colour, with four fingers of puffy, loosely foamy, and bubbly ecru head, which leaves some decent Mercator Projection pattern lace around the glass as it slowly seeps away.
It smells of gritty and grainy cereal malt, some blood orange, red grapefruit, and lemon citrus peel, a bit of stony flintiness, and more leafy, weedy, and piney green hop bitters. The taste is bready and crackery pale malt, muddled domestic citrus rind, a further minor tropical fruitiness, some damp minerality, and more earthy, leafy, and resinous piney hoppiness.
The carbonation is so-so in its palate-satiating frothiness, the body an adequate middleweight, and mostly smooth, with just a touch of hoppy intransigence maybe not making nice with the locals here. It finishes trending dry, the hops exhibiting some bad-ass lingering gusto.
Overall - aaaaah, it's always nice to come back to the OG, the one that started it all for me. Lush and citrusy, with just enough malt to keep 'er between the ditches, I could sip on this stuff all day long, especially given the well-masked extra 2 points of the ol' wowee sauce.
