473ml can (I presume, as it's not listed anywhere on the label) - an 'Alberta Strong Ale', meant to showcase Alberta's craft maltsters. Pro tip: behind every good marketing blurb, is a bloody proofreader.
This beer pours a clear, medium bronzed amber colour, with three fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat creamy tan head, which leaves some decent Swiss cheese pattern lace around the glass as it slowly sinks out of sight.
It smells of bready and biscuity cereal malt, baked red apples, a bit of stoney flintiness, and some plain earthy, musty, and dead floral hop bitters. The taste is grainy and crackery caramel malt, some muddled pome fruitiness, a damp minerality, and more understated leafy, herbal, and gently perfumed floral hoppiness.
The carbonation is adequate in its palate-coddling frothiness, the body a solid middleweight, and mostly smooth, with just a touch of booze astringency starting to rise to the surface at this particular juncture. It finishes trending dry, the alcohol and lingering hops making it so.
Overall - this is definitely redolent of locally malted barley, and surprisingly easy to put back, given its north of 15-proof wowee sauce factor. I suppose that I should be thankful that these guys' brewing acumen is better than their grammar.
